Put django file object into tikka server

In my project I have receiving multiple files using request.FILES.getlist('filedname') and saving it using django forms save method. Again reading the same files using tika server api of python:

def read_by_tika(self, path):
    '''file reading using tika server'''
    parsed = parser.from_file(str(path))
    contents = (parsed["content"].encode('utf-8'))
    return contents

Is there any way to directly put list files getting from request.FILES to tikka server without saving it on hard disk.

If the files are small, try using tika's .from_buffer() with file.read(). However, files over 2.5 MBs are anyway saved to temporary files by django, see Where uploaded data is stored. In this case use read_by_tika(file.temporary_file_path()). See also file upload settings
