I am doing a file upload in angularjs. I am unable to get the file object content before sending to my back-end. XHR, headers:
I have no idea why because I can get the content in my logs. console.log:
These are my codes: html:
<body ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="appCtrl">
<input type="file" id="file" name="files" accept="text/*"
data-url="file" class="inputfile_upload" select-ng-files
ng-model="uploadedFile"/>
<label for="file"> <span id="chooseFile"></span>Upload a file!</label>
<button id="submitBtn" type="submit" ng-click="upload()">Upload</button>
</body>
controller.js:
var app = angular.module('myApp', [])
app.controller('appCtrl', function ($scope, $rootScope, $http, fileUploadService){
$scope.upload = function() {
var file = $scope.uploadedFile;
console.log('file is ' );
console.dir(file);
var uploadUrl = "/uploaded_file";
fileUploadService.uploadFileToUrl(file, uploadUrl);
};
}
service.js:
app.factory('fileUploadService', function ($rootScope, $http) {
var service = {};
service.uploadFileToUrl = function upload(file, uploadUrl){
var fd = new FormData();
fd.append('file', file);
$http.post(uploadUrl, fd, {
transformRequest: angular.identity,
headers: {'Content-Type': undefined}
}).then(function successCallback(response){
console.log("Files added");
}, function errorCallback(response){
console.log("Files not successfully added");
})
}
return service;
});
directive.js:
app.directive("selectNgFiles", function($parse) {
return {
require: "ngModel",
link: function postLink(scope,elem,attrs,ngModel) {
elem.on("change", function(e) {
var files = elem[0].files;
ngModel.$setViewValue(files);
})
}
}
});
select-ng-filesdirective from my answer in ng-model for<input type=“file”/>(with directive DEMO). It binds a FileList object to theng-modeldirective.FileListis an array-like object not aFileobject.
