如何使用Cordova和angularjs在混合移动应用程序中上传pdf文件？

Question

I am working an app in the phonegap android in which i want to upload a file (image and pdf) to the server. What i want is when an user will click on the upload button an option dialog will open from where the user will select a file to be uploaded and then when user selects the image/pdf file the file will be uploaded. Image upload is working fine using below code:

var options = {
            destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI,
            sourceType: Camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY,
            quality : 50
        };

        $cordovaCamera.getPicture(options).then(function(file) {
            //success
        }, function(error) {
            //error
        });

Am using ngcordova camera plugin: http://ngcordova.com/docs/plugins/camera/

Can anyone tell me how to upload pdf using this plugin? If pdf upload is possible with any other plugin please share. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

You can use ngcordova's $cordovaFileTransfer , which you can use by adding the relating cordova plugin:

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-file-transfer

Example code taken from the docs :

module.controller('MyCtrl', function($scope, $cordovaFileTransfer) {

    var server = "http://yourserver.net/path/to/upload";
    var target = cordova.file.documentsDirectory + "test.pdf";
    var options = {};

    document.addEventListener('deviceready', function () {

        $cordovaFileTransfer.upload(server, target, options)
          .then(function(result) {
            // Success!
          }, function(err) {
            // Error
          }, function (progress) {
            // constant progress updates
          });

    }, false);
