Expose public API method to add canned files #1191
Comments
Current plan is to simply provide an API method. |
@ludofleury & @alphestdev Can one or both of you commit to verifying that that API method I will add in this issue addresses your needs? |
@rnicholus I'll gladly implement and verify this as soon as it's released. |
...this would be pre-release testing. I'll make sure you get access to the pre-release version and will wait for your feedback before release. |
I've pushed a pre-release - 5.6.0-1 which contains a new API method - |
Hi Ray. The method you provided in v5.6.0.1 works well, but does not meet my needs because it doesn't return the id's of added files, which we use to maintain our list of added files to prevent duplicates (like you suggested somewhere on stackoverflow) and other needs. Take for example our current implementation:
This cannot be programmed using only |
You can get a list of all files tracked by the uploader (as well as each file's name, size, uuid, id, etc) using the |
Using |
Unless you are looping through thousands of files, there is likely no perf difference, but I'm really not clear why you are looping over anything. All you need to do is pass your initial file list via the addInitialFilescmethod. I'd advise stepping back and taking a close look at your code to see how it can be improved. Perhaps there is a much better approach to solve whatever problem you are trying to solve, given the available API. Thanks for the update, I will release this new version next week. |
Also if you post a question on stack overflow under the fine-uploader tag, explain what you are trying to do with all of these loops (taking into account use of the API method I just added), and show all of your code, I can help you find a better approach as well. This is an ideal use case for SO. |
This has been released as part of 5.6.0. |

Appending this modified DOM branch to the table results in broken DOM structure. Cloning the DOM branch of a row and appending this clone to the table works just fine. fixes FineUploader#1246 * prepare to release 5.15.1 * fix(Makefile): wrong case of `client/commonJs` (FineUploader#1828) * fix(dnd): ignore non-file drag'n'drop events (FineUploader#1819) Since we only deal with files, it makes sense to ignore all events non-file related (eg. dragging plaintext). This commit fixes a few things that have changed in the browsers which subtly break the current checks. * The `contains` function on `dt.files` has been removed from the spec and will always return undefined. Except for IE, which hasn't implemented the change. * Chrome and Firefox have replaced it with `includes`, which we now use * We've left a `contains` check in there for IE as a last resort * Remove the comment about it being Firefox only, since it also works in Chrome now * More info re: removal at: https://github.com/tc39/Array.prototype.includes#status * The dt.files property always seems to be an empty array for non-drop events. Empty arrays are truthy, and so this will always satisfy the `isValidFileDrag` check before it can validate that the types array includes files * It will now only be truthy if the files array actually contains entries * There is a drop handler which binds to the document and always prevents all default drop behaviour from occurring, including things like dropping text into textfields * It will now only prevent default behaviour for file drops, which has the handy side-effect of preventing the page from navigating to the dropped file if the user misses the dropzone.

Use case: When onUpload is called, you make a request to your server to see if the file already exists. If it does, you want to let your user decide if they want to overwrite the file, or cancel the upload entirely. While waiting for user input you don't want to hold a spot in the upload queue. If the user decided to overwrite the file, call the `continueUpload` API method. * Allow per-file chunk sizes to be specified. chunking.partSize now accepts a function, which passes the file ID and size * feat(beforeUnload): new option to turn off beforeUnload alert during uploads * feat(features.js): auto-detect folder support * Allow access to Blob when file status is still SUBMITTING * docs: options, API, and events doc updates * added qq.status.UPLOAD_FINALIZING - don't cancel or pause in this state closes FineUploader#848 closes FineUploader#1697 closes FineUploader#1755 closes FineUploader#1325 closes FineUploader#1647 closes FineUploader#1703 * fix(various): misc areas where null values may cause problems (FineUploader#1995) * fix(upload.handler.controller): missing null-check in send() * docs: fix Amazon S3 v4 signature guide (FineUploader#1998) * docs: fix Amazon S3 v4 signature guide * docs: s3 v4 signature * docs(s3): fix chunked upload v4 (FineUploader#2001) * Clarified that callbacks are FineUploader option.

Currently, canned file data must come from a server. If the initial file list feature is enabled, Fine Uploader sends a GET request on init (and on
reset
), expecting JSON data to represent files uploaded successfully in a previous session. It might be useful to allow successfully upload metadata to be persisted to and read fromlocalStorage
as an alternative. Obviously, this is not possible in browsers that don't supportlocalStorage
such as IE7.Another option may be to provide an API method where integrators can passed canned file data at any time. This allows the data to be stored anywhere.
