This is my first post, so be gentle! I'm a Rails beginner and clueless with JavaScript/JQuery...
I have a Rails project which requires that the user be able to select a file and be presented with a preview image, which they can then crop as they wish before uploading the cropped image asynchronously.
I have successfully implemented direct upload to S3 using the JQuery FileUpload plugin (following this tutorial) and I am able to present the user with a preview image which they can crop using Cropper.js. However I need help with the last step of uploading the cropped image.
Here is the JS I have so far for handling the image crop/upload to S3:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.directUpload').find("input:file").each(function(i, elem) {
var fileInput = $(elem);
var form = $(fileInput.parents('form:first'));
var submitButton = form.find('input[type="submit"]');
var progressBar = $("<div class='bar'></div>");
var barContainer = $("<div class='progress'></div>").append(progressBar);
fileInput.after(barContainer);
fileInput.fileupload({
fileInput: fileInput,
url: form.data('url'), //read AWS config via form attributes
type: 'POST',
autoUpload: false, // prevent upload start on file selection
formData: form.data('form-data'),
paramName: 'file',
dataType: 'XML',
replaceFileInput: false,
The code above initializes JQuery FileUpload and passes my S3 configuration data.
Next I use the JQuery FileUpload's ' add
' callback to display a preview image/cropbox, and to upload the image to S3 when the user clicks an 'Upload' button:
add: function (e, data) {
if (data.files && data.files[0]) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function(e) {
$('#preview_image').attr('src', e.target.result); // insert preview image
$('#preview_image').cropper() // initialize cropper on preview image
};
reader.readAsDataURL(data.files[0]);
};
$('#upload_image').on('click', function(){
$('#preview_image').cropper('getCroppedCanvas').toBlob(function (blob){
var croppedFile = new File([blob], 'cropped_file.png')
// How do I now get my cropped file data to upload instead of original file?
})
data.submit();
});
},
It is the last part, above, where I am now stuck - I've created a file from the cropped area, but have been unable to find a way to upload it instead of the original image.
The remaining code deals mainly with displaying upload progress and building an image URL that I can save to my database for image retrieval.
progressall: function (e, data) {
var progress = parseInt(data.loaded / data.total * 100, 10);
progressBar.css('width', progress + '%')
},
start: function (e) {
submitButton.prop('disabled', true); //disable submit button while image is loading
progressBar.
css('background', 'green').
css('display', 'block').
css('width', '0%').
text("Loading...");
},
done: function(e, data) {
submitButton.prop('disabled', false);
progressBar.text("Uploading done");
// extract key from S3 XML response and generate URL for image
var key = $(data.jqXHR.responseXML).find("Key").text();
var url = '//' + form.data('host') + '/' + key;
// create hidden field containing image URL, which can then be stored in model
var input = $("<input />", { type:'hidden', name: 'image_url[]', value: url })
form.append(input);
},
fail: function(e, data) {
submitButton.prop('disabled', false);
progressBar.
css("background", "red").
text("Failed");
}
});
This worked for me
var croppedFile = new File([blob], 'cropped_file.png');
data.files[0] = croppedFile;
data.originalFiles[0] = data.files[0];
or just
data.files[0] = new File([blob], 'cropped_file.png');
data.originalFiles[0] = data.files[0];
and then
data.submit()
