To upload files into server i used ng-file-upload.In there i send files as form multi part.Also can upload multiple files to server.So far it is working with text,xml and csv files.I am not sure if i did some mistake to enable other format as well like jpeg,png and .xlsx file format.
Here is my front end code snippet.
<div class="input input-file "><span class="button"><input name="files[]" ngf-select multiple accept="text/csv/xlsx/xls" ngf-pattern=".txt,.xml,.xls,.csv,.xlsx" ngf-max-height="1000" ngf-max-size="10MB" type="file" id="tattachments"name="file" ng-model="MODEL_COL_FIELD" onchange="this.parentNode.nextSibling.value = this.value">Browse</span>
<input
ng-class="\'colt\' + col.uid" ui-grid-edit-file-chooser id="attachments" type="text" placeholder="Select some files (optional)" readonly="">
</div>
I enabled following ng-file upload directives as like accept="text/csv/xlsx/xls" ngf-pattern=".txt,.xml,.xls,.csv,.xlsx"
Request Header Details
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="files[0]"; filename="sampleFile.xlsx"
Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
I am not sure if i did any mistake here.
Back end code snippet to save the files into DB
private FilesAttachment addFileAttachment(String fileName,
String fileContent, String mimeType) {
FilesAttachment attachment = new FilesAttachment();
byte[] stream = fileContent.getBytes();
attachment.setData(stream);
attachment.setTimestamp(Calendar.getInstance().getTime());
attachment.setSize(stream.length);
attachment.setFilename(fileName);
attachment.setDescription(fileName);
attachment.setMimetype(mimeType);
return attachment;
}
JS code snippet
var promise= Upload.upload({
url: REST END point URL,
data: {
files: attachments, //File list contains selected files
'message':message,
'userName': userName
}}).then(function (response) {
etc ...
}
Then i tried to access files that i have uploaded but i cant open them.Please let me know what i did wrong.
