FileReader onload with result and parameter

问题:

I can't manage to get both the result of the filereader and some parameters in a onload function. This is my code:

HTML of control:

<input type="file" id="files_input" multiple/>

Javascript function:

function openFiles(evt){
    var files = evt.target.files;
    for (var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
      var file=files[i];
      reader = new FileReader();
      reader.onload = function(){
          var data = $.csv.toArrays(this.result,{separator:'\t'});
      };
      reader.readAsText(file);
    }
  }

Add event:

 files_input.addEventListener("change", openFiles, false);

I use the filereader.result, in the onload function. If I use a parameter, like file, for this function, I can't not access to the result anymore. For example I'd like to use file.name in the onload function. How to resolve this issue ?

回答1:

Try wrapping your onload function in another function. Here the closure gives you access to each file being processed in turn via the variable f:

function openFiles(evt){
    var files = evt.target.files;

    for (var i = 0, len = files.length; i < len; i++) {
        var file = files[i];

        var reader = new FileReader();

        reader.onload = (function(f) {
            return function(e) {
                // Here you can use `e.target.result` or `this.result`
                // and `f.name`.
            };
        })(file);

        reader.readAsText(file);
    }
}

For a discussion of why a closure is required here see these related questions:

回答2:

You should use closure at 'onload' handler. Example: http://jsfiddle.net/2bjt7Lon/

reader.onload = (function (file) { // here we save variable 'file' in closure
     return function (e) { // return handler function for 'onload' event
         var data = this.result; // do some thing with data
     }
})(file);

Event handling is asynchronous and thus they pick up the latest value of all the enclosed local variables(i.e. closure). To bind a particular local variable to the event, you need to follow the code suggested by users above or you can look at this working example:-

http://jsfiddle.net/sahilbatla/hjk3u2ee/

function openFiles(evt){
  var files = evt.target.files;
  for (var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
    var file=files[i];
    reader = new FileReader();
    reader.onload = (function(file){
      return function() {
        console.log(file)
      }
    })(file);
    reader.readAsText(file);
  }
}

#Using jQuery document ready
$(function() {
  files_input.addEventListener("change", openFiles, false);
});

For Typescript;

for (var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
  var file = files[i];

  var reader = new FileReader();

  reader.onload = ((file: any) => {
    return (e: Event) => {
      //use "e" or "file"
    }
  })(file);

  reader.readAsText(file);
}

As the variable file is within the scope, you may use the file variable without passing it to function.

function openFiles(evt){
    var files = evt.target.files;
    for (var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
          var file=files[i];    
          reader = new FileReader();
          reader.onload = function(){
              alert(file.name);
              alert(this.result);
          };
      reader.readAsText(file);
    }
  }

files_input.addEventListener("change", openFiles, false);

<input type="file" id="files_input" multiple/>
