Is it possible to use some enhanced component to upload files to blobstore?
I'm playing with uploadify but facing problems to put it to work. I would like to be able to filter the kind of file before send it to blobstore, as well as the file size and maybe show some progress bar during the upload...
PS: For those who also subscribe the gae-j group, this is a reposting, since nobody answered this question in the group...
Check out Plupload, which does pretty much everything you are looking for, and also this post, which demonstrates how to implement Plupload using App Engine.

Good afternoon,
I have a little problem in which I can't find a solution to.
For a school project, I need to create an application. The main goal of this app is to give an organization the opportunity to store PDF files in this app (meaning they can upload files from their computer into this). I'm using Mendix to create this app and have the following problem: When I try to create a file upload button, I keep getting errors and I don't know how to fix it. Do you know how to upload files in a Mendix container in an easy way? Thanks in Advance. I've already created an entity relationship diagram.
There's a component in the Mendix Marketplace that could help you. The name is
FileDropper.
In addition, there's also a Git Repository where you can find detailed instructions and a Sample project.
Good luck!
The native file chooser dialog doesn't get invoked from within a BrowserComponent. I understand WebView has some limitations but there are ways to overcome this in Android.
Is there a workaround for CodenameOne? Any ideas on how to make it work?
This is a bit problematic because Android overcame it in a non-portable way. That means the workaround worked for older versions of Android, stopped working and then you needed a new workaround all the time.
But it was even more problematic because of permissions that made it really hard to do it well especially with Android 6+ permission types. All users that asked for this so far found a different way to implement file upload e.g. using the multipart class so this never became an issue that required a workaround (which would be non-trivial).
Dropbox recently introduced Project Infinite, which displays a 0 byte file placeholder in Finder / Explorer that when double-clicked causes the Dropbox app to download the file and open it.
It doesn't appear to have been enabled on my account yet so I can't test it but their demo video shows it being completely seamless.
Does anyone know exactly how this is occurring behind the scenes? Are they using something like FUSE to create their own file system?
Also, how do they make it appear to be 6 MB when the file is actually 0 bytes?
So it seems like Dropbox has answered my question for me in a follow-up blog post.
They were going to use FUSE but decided against it for performance reasons. They're directly building native kernel extensions, which is probably overkill for my needs. I guess I'll stick with FUSE.
I am trying to upload pdf files through a form to mongodb through mongoose. I want the file to be uploaded only once the form is submitted.
It seems like grid-fs and ng-file-upload are the best way to go, but I am having a hard time finding any good tutorials. Can anyone help me get this working?
I have seen similar questions but I am new to the MEAN stack and I am finding them hard to understand.
I am also going to want to be able to load the file and show it in the page, but that is a further question,
Another day another question ;)
This time I would like to ask you about server file browser in grails. To be more specyfic I'm looking for something similar to this in grails. I've looked at many sites and I only find Open File Manager attached to CKEditror plugin. In some way it's fine but with it I can't, for example, pick file (like in "Enhancing HTML form" in CKFinder demo)
I would be very grateful for any suggestions
Weceem is a CMS built in grails. It has the ability to upload HTML files and do basic file management.
I finaly manage to find solution. What is intresting is a fact that already mentioned Open File Manager attached to CKEditror plugin has a possibility to do that. I only have to open it with new windows (target="_blank")
