I need a minimal video upload mechanism in my plugin.
I use the built in media upload iframe:
tb_show("", "/wp-admin/media-upload.php?type=video&TB_iframe=true");
With fewer options:
add_filter('media_upload_tabs','dilute_media_upload_tabs');
function dilute_media_upload_tabs($tabs){
return array(
'type' => __('From Computer')
);
}
I'd like to save the user from having to click on "Insert to post" button after every file upload, and instead, fire that event programmatically immediately after the file have been uploaded (or crunched or whatever...)
Any idea how to accomplish that?

There is a button in UI, it will open file open explorer, once we select file and click open, then DOM directly uploading the file,
Upload Document Pop Up
selecting the file and click open
file directly getting uploaded
tried all possible ways suggested in cypress-file-upload package. not working,
background there is an API POST request which is actually uploading the file, but that API URL is dynamic(URL includes the user authentication login token, and upload key, and user id), so it is not possible to generate/recreate the upload API URL
Can't able to access the file open explorer? In this scenario, how to perform file upload using CyPress?
You should be able to use a RegEx in the RouteMatcher for the intercept on the Upload API. If you need help creating your Regex, I suggest using Regex101 as a scratch pad. Slightly modified from the cypress-file-upload documentation:
// intercept the API endpoint
cy.intercept({
method: 'POST',
url: /.*my-api.com.*/
}).as('upload');
const fileName = 'upload_1.xlsx';
cy.fixture(fileName, 'binary')
.then(Cypress.Blob.binaryStringToBlob)
.then(fileContent => {
cy.get('#input_upload_file').attachFile({
fileContent,
fileName,
mimeType: 'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet',
encoding:'utf8',
lastModified: new Date().getTime()
})
})
// wait for the 'my-api.com' request, and leave a 2 minutes delay before throwing an error
cy.wait('#upload', { requestTimeout: 120000 });
I am trying to display a file stored in storage folder using laravel's response helper. Unfortunately, every time it runs, the file is DOWNLOADED, not DISPLAYED. Below is my code:
public function viewDoc($id)
{
$a = pro_doc::findorfail($id);
$path = storage_path('documents/'.$a->file_name);
if ( ! File::exists($path) ) {
abort(404);
}
return response()->file($path);
}
Im sending an id to the controller, which looks up the record and gets the file name, then attempts to open the file in a new window (this is from a link with a blank target). A new window momentarily opens, then the download begins and the window closes.
The documentation (https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/responses#file-responses) seems to say this shouldn't happen
The file method may be used to display a file, such as an image or PDF, directly in the user's browser instead of initiating a download.
Can anyone help me make this work? Again, Im trying to get it to open in the browser window, not download. Thank you!
I have a textarea with html id "id_textarea".
editor = CKEDITOR.inline( 'id_textarea', {
filebrowserBrowseUrl : 'browse_url',
filebrowserUploadUrl : 'upload_url'
});
editor.on( 'fileUploadRequest', function( evt ) {
console.log("This is not printing");
});
Whenever I try to upload a file, it doesn't print anything to console. Am I doing something wrong?
By the way, my requirement is to add csrf headers before sending a request for which I need to catch some event like fileUploadRequest.
I assume that you are trying to upload files via the Upload tab in the Image Properties dialog. It is provided by the File Browser plugin and fileButton which does not support the fileUploadRequest and fileUploadResponse events (there is already a feature request with a more in-depth description of this case).
If you would like to use these events for some custom request preprocessing, you can use the Upload Image plugin. The configuration process is described in the official docs, but keep in mind that it will work only for dropping or pasting files. Upload via the Image Properties dialog will still be handled by the File Browser plugin which does not support these events.
The important thing here is that since CKEditor 4.5.6, the File Browser plugin uses the CSRF header so it can be probably used on your server side without any modifications in the JavaScript code. So if you are using an older version I suggest updating to 4.5.6 (using e.g. CKBuilder) and trying to integrate with your backend. The CSRF header in the File Browser plugin should be sufficient for your needs.
Here is the header:
I have an #Html.Action link that currently works for returning the user a pdf document from the controller. I want to be able to use an ajax call to perform the same function but I'm stuck on how or even if this can be done. I have tried several different iterations but I never get the pdf to download from the browser window. Here is what I have so far:
$('#Button1').click(function () {
var poNum = "51970";
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
data: "id= " + poNum,
url: '#Url.Action("PoReport", new { controller = "LogisticsTools"})'
});
});
I can copy the Request URL from the Headers window in Chrome Dev Tools and paste it into a new page and the pdf is downloaded. I can see the pdf code in the Response window also but it just doesn't get downloaded when the button is clicked. What am I missing?
You don't want to ajaxify this. Put the URL in an anchor tag and let the browser do the rest. If the browser doesn't recognise the document type or it is configured to force file downloads, the file will download as you expect (i.e. the user will see the download dialog). If the document is recognised, can be opened in the browser, and the browser is configured to open files, the file will open in the browser.
<a href='#Url.Action("PoReport", new { controller = "LogisticsTools"})'
title="Click to Download/Open">
Download
</a>
You can't download PDF file while using the ajax request to server. So instead of that you should use html actionlink. for example
#Html.ActionLink("Convert Data into PDF", "PDFView", null, new { #class= "btn btn-info" });
Above code will generate a link button and you can access Action Method of controller. Also you can use any technique to return PDF file from controller for example you can return PDF file using FileResult class.
I want to add validation in filefield of ExtJs4 , so that user can only browse .png , .jpeg image files..How should I do it ?
{
xtype: 'filefield',
id:'photoUpload',
buttonOnly:true,
buttonText: 'Photo'
}
I think it is important to understand how file upload works, so to prevent yourself from troubles in the future...
For security reasons, the following applies:
Browsers cannot access the file system unless the user has explicitly clicked on an upload field.
Browser has minimal access to the file being uploaded, in particular - you JS code may be able to see the file name (the browser has to display it in the field), but nothing else (the path itself on most browsers is not the correct one).
The upload process itself happens in these steps:
The user clicks on an upload field, initiating the file select dialog.
The browser implements access to the file system through the dialog, allowing the user to select a file.
Upon OK click, the browser sends the file to the server.
The server places the file in its temp directory (configured per server).
Once upload is complete, the upload script on the server is called with the file details, and that script will have full access to the uploaded file.
The last step is the only point where you have full access to the file details, including the real actual name, its size, and its content.
Anything the browser gives javascript is browser depended. Even the file name will vary between browsers although all the browsers I know do keep the actual file name (but not the real actual path), you cannot rely on this to work with future versions. The reason for this is that the file name is displayed on the client side.
So the recommendation is this:
Do all file upload checks on the server side.
Again, you may get away with the file name on the JS client side, particularly if you know and can test what browsers your clients will use, but I'd strongly recommend to to this test on the server.
The last thing you have to remember is that users might upload a file ending with .png, but the file itself is a .zip with the extension changed - so to really confirm that the file is .png you need to actually look into the file data, which only the server can do.
{
xtype: 'filefield',
id:'photoUpload',
buttonOnly:true,
vtype:'fileUpload',
buttonText: 'Photo'
}
And Vtype which I have use..
Ext.apply(Ext.form.VTypes, {
fileUpload: function(val, field) {
var fileName = /^.*\.(gif|png|bmp|jpg|jpeg)$/i;
return fileName.test(val);
},
fileUploadText: 'Image must be in .gif,.png,.bmp,.jpg,.jpeg format'
});
Try following snippet in your 'filefield' xtype config
regex : (/.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png)$/i),
regexText : 'Only image files allowed for upload',
msgTarget : 'under'
