File picker

Package: com.fliplet.file-picker

Overview

The File picker allows users to select one or more files that are accessible via File Manager.

var provider = Fliplet.Widget.open('com.fliplet.file-picker', {
  data: {
    selectFiles: [{ id: 123 }],
    type: 'image'
  }
});

The following parameters can be passed to Fliplet.Widget.open() using data as shown above.

selectFiles (Array) Array of files to be marked as selected in the file picker. Each item in the array would be an object with { id }
selectMultiple (Boolean) Set to true to allow users to select multiple files.
type (String) Type of files supported. Default: All files
Possible values
- (Empty) All files
- image Images
- document Documents
- video Video files
- folder Folders only
fileExtension (Array) Optionally provide a list of supported file extensions in uppercase, e.g. ['JPG', 'JPEG', 'PNG']. Otherwise, the type will be sufficient for the API to only show files that match the type.

The provider object resolves with an object representing the selected files/folders. Usually, only the file/folder ID needs to be saved.

Example

provider.then(function(result) {
  console.log('Selected files:', result.data);
});
