public class UploadItem
extends TextItem

FormItem that creates an HTML <input type="file"> control, with an interface that allows a user to pick a file from his machine to upload to the server.

NOTE: use FileItem, not UploadItem, if you are using the Smart GWT Server framework. FileItem is much easier to use and addresses all the limitations of UploadItem discussed below. See the Uploading Files overview for details.

If a form containing an UploadItem is redrawn (which may happen if other form items are shown or hidden, the form is resized, or other items show validation errors) then the value in the upload item is lost (because an HTML upload field may not be created with a value). For this reason, if you are building a form that combines an UploadItem with other FormItems that could trigger redraw()s, recommended practice is to place each UploadItem in a distinct DynamicForm instance and create the visual appearance of a single logical form via combining the DynamicForms in a Layout.

NOTE: Browser-specific behaviors:

• while getDisplayValue() can be used to retrieve the filesystem path of the uploaded file on some browsers, different browsers will return either just the file name without path or the full path. It is plausible that some browsers may switch behavior in the future to not supply this value at all. Do not rely on this value.
• the appearance of the UploadItem is not consistent across browsers and we do not recommend trying to make it consistent or trying to apply styling to the upload control at all. It is a potential security problem if an end user is unable to reliably recognize the upload control, hence, all browsers limit what styling can be applied. Various hacks exists to get further control of styling, but it is likely these hacks will be broken by browser upgrades in the future.

changePickerIconDefaults

public static void changePickerIconDefaults(FormItemIcon defaults)

setAccept

public void setAccept(java.lang.String accept)

A comma-separated list of valid MIME types, used as a filter for the file picker window.

Note that this property makes use of the HTML accept attribute, and so relies on the browser to perform the desired filtering. For further study, see:

• HTML <input> accept Attribute
• The Input (Form Input) element
• File input 'accept' attribute - is it useful?

Parameters:

accept - Default value is null

getAccept

public java.lang.String getAccept()

A comma-separated list of valid MIME types, used as a filter for the file picker window.

Note that this property makes use of the HTML accept attribute, and so relies on the browser to perform the desired filtering. For further study, see:

• HTML <input> accept Attribute
• The Input (Form Input) element
• File input 'accept' attribute - is it useful?

Returns:

String

setHeight

public void setHeight(int height)

Height for this uploadItem. Note that Smart GWT will not apply this size to the native HTML <input ...> element written out by this formItem as this leads to inconsistent appearance across different browsers. The specified height acts as a minimum cell width for the item.

Overrides:

setHeight in class FormItem

Parameters:

height - Default value is 19

See Also:

getHeight

public int getHeight()

Height for this uploadItem. Note that Smart GWT will not apply this size to the native HTML <input ...> element written out by this formItem as this leads to inconsistent appearance across different browsers. The specified height acts as a minimum cell width for the item.

Overrides:

getHeight in class FormItem

Returns:

int

setMultiple

public void setMultiple(java.lang.Boolean multiple)

When true, allow the file-selection dialog shelled by the browser to select multiple files.

Support is not full-cycle at the server - that is, there are server APIs for retrieving each file that was uploaded, but no built-in support for storing multiple files against a single DataSource field. However, you can write custom server DMI code to do something with the files - for instance, you could create multiple new DataSource records for each file via a server DMI like this below:

     String fileNameStr = (String)dsRequest.getValues().get("image_filename").toString();
 
     String[] fileNames = fileNameStr.split(", ");
     List files = dsRequest.getUploadedFiles();
 
     for (int i = 0; i < files.size(); i++) {
         ISCFileItem file = (ISCFileItem)files.get(i);
         InputStream fileData = file.getInputStream();
         DSRequest inner = new DSRequest("mediaLibrary", "add");
         Map values = new HashMap();
         values.put("title", dsRequest.getValues().get("title"));
         values.put("image", fileData);
         values.put("image_filename", fileNames[i]);
         values.put("image_filesize", file.getSize());
         values.put("image_date_created", new Date());
         
         inner.setValues(values);
         inner.execute();
     }
     
     DSResponse dsResponse = new DSResponse();
     
     dsResponse.setStatus(0);
 
     return dsResponse;
  

Parameters:

multiple - Default value is true

getMultiple

public java.lang.Boolean getMultiple()

When true, allow the file-selection dialog shelled by the browser to select multiple files.

     for (int i = 0; i < files.size(); i++) {
         ISCFileItem file = (ISCFileItem)files.get(i);
         InputStream fileData = file.getInputStream();
         DSRequest inner = new DSRequest("mediaLibrary", "add");
         Map values = new HashMap();
         values.put("title", dsRequest.getValues().get("title"));
         values.put("image", fileData);
         values.put("image_filename", fileNames[i]);
         values.put("image_filesize", file.getSize());
         values.put("image_date_created", new Date());
         
         inner.setValues(values);
         inner.execute();
     }
     
     DSResponse dsResponse = new DSResponse();
     
     dsResponse.setStatus(0);
 
     return dsResponse;
  

Returns:

Boolean

setTextBoxStyle

public void setTextBoxStyle(java.lang.String textBoxStyle)

Base CSS class name for this UploadItem's native file input element.

Note that the customization via CSS of a native file input element allowable by the browser varies widely; in some browsers on certain platforms, it may be possible to customize certain CSS properties, but not in others; or, it may be that the CSS property (e.g. border) is applied differently in some browsers.

If the textBoxStyle is changed at runtime, FormItem.updateState() must be called to update the visual state. However, calling updateState() will clear any file selected by the user to be uploaded.

Overrides:

setTextBoxStyle in class TextItem

Parameters:

textBoxStyle - See FormItemBaseStyle . Default value is "uploadItem"

See Also:

FormItem.setCellStyle(java.lang.String), Appearance overview and related methods

getTextBoxStyle

public java.lang.String getTextBoxStyle()

Base CSS class name for this UploadItem's native file input element.

Note that the customization via CSS of a native file input element allowable by the browser varies widely; in some browsers on certain platforms, it may be possible to customize certain CSS properties, but not in others; or, it may be that the CSS property (e.g. border) is applied differently in some browsers.

If the textBoxStyle is changed at runtime, FormItem.updateState() must be called to update the visual state. However, calling updateState() will clear any file selected by the user to be uploaded.

Overrides:

getTextBoxStyle in class TextItem

Returns:

See FormItemBaseStyle

See Also:

FormItem.getCellStyle(), Appearance overview and related methods

setWidth

public void setWidth(int width)

Width for this uploadItem. Note that Smart GWT will not apply this size to the native HTML <input ...> element written out by this formItem as this leads to inconsistent appearance across different browsers. The specified width acts as a minimum cell width for the item.

Overrides:

setWidth in class FormItem

Parameters:

width - Default value is 150

See Also:

FormLayout overview and related methods, Spanning Example

getWidth

public int getWidth()

Width for this uploadItem. Note that Smart GWT will not apply this size to the native HTML <input ...> element written out by this formItem as this leads to inconsistent appearance across different browsers. The specified width acts as a minimum cell width for the item.

Overrides:

getWidth in class FormItem

Returns:

int

See Also:

FormLayout overview and related methods, Spanning Example

deselectValue

public void deselectValue()

This method is not supported by UploadItem.

Overrides:

deselectValue in class TextItem

deselectValue

public void deselectValue(java.lang.Boolean start)

This method is not supported by UploadItem.

Overrides:

deselectValue in class TextItem

Parameters:

start - By default the text insertion cursor will be moved to the end of the current value - pass in this parameter to move to the start instead

getSelectionRange

public int[] getSelectionRange()

This method is not supported by UploadItem.

Overrides:

getSelectionRange in class TextItem

Returns:

null

selectValue

public void selectValue()

This method is not supported by UploadItem.

Overrides:

selectValue in class TextItem

setSelectionRange

public void setSelectionRange()

This method is not supported by UploadItem.

setValue

public void setValue()

Attempting to set the value for an upload form item is disallowed for security reasons. Therefore this method will just log a warning, and not modify the value of the item.

setDefaultProperties

public static void setDefaultProperties(UploadItem uploadItemProperties)

Class level method to set the default properties of this class. If set, then all existing and subsequently created instances of this class will automatically have default properties corresponding to the properties of the class instance passed to this function. This is a powerful feature that eliminates the need for users to create a separate hierarchy of subclasses that only alter the default properties of this class. Can also be used for skinning / styling purposes.

Note: This method is intended for setting default attributes only and will affect all instances of the underlying class (including those automatically generated in JavaScript). This method should not be used to apply standard EventHandlers or override methods for a class - use a custom subclass instead. Calling this method after instances have been created can result in undefined behavior, since it bypasses any setters and a class instance may have already examined a particular property and not be expecting any changes through this route.

Parameters:

uploadItemProperties - properties that should be used as new defaults when instances of this class are created
