FileAPI

A set of JavaScript tools for working with files.

Get started

Download the files from the dist directory, and then:

	<div>
		<!-- "js-fileapi-wrapper" -- required class -->
		<div class="js-fileapi-wrapper upload-btn">
			<div class="upload-btn__txt">Choose files</div>
			<input id="choose" name="files" type="file" multiple />
		</div>
		<div id="images"><!-- previews --></div>
	</div>

	<script>window.FileAPI = { staticPath: '/js/FileAPI/dist/' };</script>
	<script src="/js/FileAPI/dist/FileAPI.min.js"></script>
	<script>
		var choose = document.getElementById('choose');
		FileAPI.event.on(choose, 'change', function (evt){
			var files = FileAPI.getFiles(evt); // Retrieve file list

			FileAPI.filterFiles(files, function (file, info/**Object*/){
				if( /^image/.test(file.type) ){
					return	info.width >= 320 && info.height >= 240;
				}
				return	false;
			}, function (files/**Array*/, rejected/**Array*/){
				if( files.length ){
					// Make preview 100x100
					FileAPI.each(files, function (file){
						FileAPI.Image(file).preview(100).get(function (err, img){
							images.appendChild(img);
						});
					});

					// Uploading Files
					FileAPI.upload({
						url: './ctrl.php',
						files: { images: files },
						progress: function (evt){ /* ... */ },
						complete: function (err, xhr){ /* ... */ }
					});
				}
			});
		});
	</script>

Setup options

Edit the file crossdomain.xml and place it to the root of the domain to which files will be uploaded.

	<script>
		window.FileAPI = {
			  debug: false   // debug mode, see Console
			, cors: false    // if used CORS, set `true`
			, media: false   // if used WebCam, set `true`
			, staticPath: '/js/FileAPI/dist/' // path to '*.swf'
			, postNameConcat: function (name, idx){
				// Default: object[foo]=1&object[bar][baz]=2
				// .NET: https://github.com/mailru/FileAPI/issues/121#issuecomment-24590395
				return	name + (idx != null ? '['+ idx +']' : '');
			}
		};
	</script>
	<script src="/js/FileAPI/dist/FileAPI.min.js"></script>

	<!-- OR -->

	<script>
		window.FileAPI = { /* options */ };
		require(['FileAPI'], function (FileAPI){
			// ...
		});
	</script>

getFiles(input:HTMLInputElement|Event|$.Event):Array

Retrieve file list from input element or event object, also support jQuery.

• input — HTMLInputElement, change and drop event, jQuery collection or jQuery.Event

var el = document.getElement('my-input');
FileAPI.event.on(el, 'change', function (evt/**Event*/){
	// Retrieve file list
	var files = FileAPI.getFiles(el);

	// or event
	var files = FileAPI.getFiles(evt);
});

getInfo(file:Object, callback:Function):void

Get info of file (see also: FileAPI.addInfoReader).

• file — file object (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/File)
• callback — function, called after collected info of file

// Get info of image file (FileAPI.exif.js included)
FileAPI.getInfo(file, function (err/**String*/, info/**Object*/){
	if( !err ){
		console.log(info); // { width: 800, height: 600, exif: {..} }
	}
});

// Get info of mp3 file (FileAPI.id3.js included)
FileAPI.getInfo(file, function (err/**String*/, info/**Object*/){

		console.log(info); // { title: "...", album: "...", artists: "...", ... }
	}
});

filterFiles(files:Array, filter:Function, callback:Function):void

Filtering the list of files, with additional information about files. See also: FileAPI.getInfo and FileAPI.addInfoReader.

• files — original list of files
• filter — function, takes two arguments: file — the file itself, info — additional information.
• callback — function: list — files that match the condition, other — all the rest.

// Get list of file
var files = FileAPI.getFiles(input);

// Filter the List
FileAPI.filterFiles(files, function (file/**Object*/, info/**Object*/){
	if( /^image/.test(file.type) && info ){
		return	info.width > 320 && info.height > 240;
	} else {
		return	file.size < 20 * FileAPI.MB;
	}
}, function (list/**Array*/, other/**Array*/){
	if( list.length ){
		// ..
	}
});

getDropFiles(evt:Event|$.Event, callback:Function):void

	// Get a list of files
	FileAPI.getDropFiles(evt, function (files/**Array*/){
		// ...
	});
});

				var result = xhr.responseText;
				// ...
			}
		}
	});
});

FileAPI.support.html5:Boolean

HTML5 browser support

Flash

Flash is very "buggy" thing :] The server response can not be empty. Therefore, in the event of a successful uploading http status should be only 200 OK.

Settings

Flash settings. It is advisable to place flash on the same server where the files will be uploaded.

<script>
	var FileAPI = {
	 	// @default: "./dist/"
		staticPath: '/js/',

		 // @default: FileAPI.staticPath + "FileAPI.flash.swf"
		flashUrl: '/statics/FileAPI.flash.swf',

		// @default: FileAPI.staticPath + "FileAPI.flash.image.swf"
		flashImageUrl: '/statics/FileAPI.flash.image.swf'
	};
</script>
<script src="/js/FileAPI.min.js"></script>

crossdomain.xml

Necessarily make this file on the server. Do not forget to replace youdomain.com on the name of your domain.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.adobe.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
	<site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="all"/>
	<allow-access-from domain="youdomain.com" secure="false"/>
	<allow-access-from domain="*.youdomain.com" secure="false"/>
	<allow-http-request-headers-from domain="*" headers="*" secure="false"/>
</cross-domain-policy>

request

The following sample HTTP POST request is sent from Flash Player to a server-side script if no parameters are specified:

POST /server/ctrl.php HTTP/1.1

Security

By default FileAPI.flash.swf allows access from any domain via Security.allowDomain("*"). This can lead to same origin bypass vulnerability if swf is loaded from the same domain as your critical data. To prevent this, allow only your domains here and rebuild flash.

Chunked file upload

Client and server communicate to each other using the following HTTP headers and status codes.
Client explicitly sets the following headers:

• Content-Range: bytes <start-offset>-<end-offset>/<total>
• Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=<file-name>

• 200 - last chunk is uploaded
• 201 - chunk is successfully saved
• 416 - range is not acceptable error, recoverable
• 500 - server error, recoverable
