In my application that i am developing in Angular 4, user can upload multipart files into server. Files are large. I need to show the current progress of file upload process with it's percentage to user, how can i do it?
Thanks in advance!

Since you are using Angular4 , it can be achieved using Listening to progress
events using the new HttpClient from @angular/common/http.
Adding code from the docs,
const req = new HttpRequest('POST', '/upload/file', file, {
reportProgress: true,
});
and then,
http.request(req).subscribe(event => {
// Via this API, you get access to the raw event stream.
// Look for upload progress events.
if (event.type === HttpEventType.UploadProgress) {
// This is an upload progress event. Compute and show the % done:
const percentDone = Math.round(100 * event.loaded / event.total);
console.log(`File is ${percentDone}% uploaded.`);
} else if (event instanceof HttpResponse) {
console.log('File is completely uploaded!');
}
});
EDIT
Since OP wanted to use it with angular2, should use native JavaScript XHR wrapped as an Observable as mentioned in this answer
You can easily achieve this with:
npm i angular-progress-http
After importing the module, you can now add below it to your app.module.ts or wherever you stack your app modules in your application.
You will import this (in app.module.ts):
import { HttpModule } from '@angular/http';
import { ProgressHttpModule } from 'angular-progress-http';
Still in your app.module.ts
at @NgModule
@NgModule({
imports: [
HttpModule,
ProgressHttpModule
]
})
Then in your component file (whatever.component.ts), where you want to use it. You can place this:
import { ProgressHttp } from 'angular-progress-http';
Then implement like this:
constructor(private http: ProgressHttp) {}
onSubmit(): void {
const _formData = new FormData();
_formData.append('title', this.title);
_formData.append('doc', this.doc);
this.http.withUploadProgressListener(progress => { console.log(`Uploading ${progress.percentage}%`); })
.withDownloadProgressListener(progress => { console.log(`Downloading ${progress.percentage}%`); })
.post('youruploadurl', _formData)
.subscribe((response) => {
console.log(response);
});
}
use angular-loading-bar library, if you don't want to use angular-loading-bar library you can use progress callback eq-xhrrequest.upload.onprogress.
Gajender.service.ts
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import {HttpClient, HttpParams, HttpRequest, HttpEvent} from '@angular/common/http';
import {Observable} from "rxjs";
constructor(private http: HttpClient) {
}
uploadFileData(url: string, file: File): Observable<HttpEvent<any>> {
let formData = new FormData();
let user = {
name : 'Gajender'
}
formData.append('file', file);
formData.append("user", JSON.stringify(user));
let params = new HttpParams();
const options = {
params: params,
reportProgress: true,
};
const req = new HttpRequest('POST', url, formData, options);
return this.http.request(req);
}
user.component.ts

var filedata = this.el.nativeElement.files[0];
this.gajender.uploadFileData('url',filedata)
.subscribe(
(data: any) => {
console.log(data);
if(data.type == 1 && data.loaded && data.total){
console.log("gaju");
this.progress.loaded = data.loaded;
this.progress.total = data.total;
}
else if(data.body){
console.log("Data Uploaded");
console.log(data.body);
}
},
error => console.log(error)
)
user.component.html
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post">

</form>
Progress
<progress [value]=progress.loaded [max]=progress.total>
</progress>
uploadDocument(file) {
return this.httpClient.post(environment.uploadDocument, file, { reportProgress: true, observe: 'events' })
