Angular 4：如何打开CSV本地文件？

Question

I would like to know how to open a CSV file using Angular 4. I found an example on the network, but it is not exactly what I need because in that case the file is downloaded from the server. I need to open the file locally, is it possible?

I found this example:

Answer 1

you can load files from the client machine using Javascript FileReader object and (Angular 2+ indeed).

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app',
  encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None,
  template: `<input id="preview" type="file" (change)="previewFile($event)" />`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
  ...
  public previewImage(event) {
    const reader = new FileReader();
    reader.onload = (e: any) => {
      console.log('csv content', e.target.result);
    };
    reader.readAsDataURL(event.target.files[0]);
  }
}

Answer 2

you can use FileReader() api.have a look at this thread : Getting Data from FileReader in Angular 2

Yes, it is possible like described in the link you provided too You implement a webservice that will provide you the local file . your angular applications makes a request to the webservice and retrieve the local file.
