I tried to use ng-model on input tag with type file:
But after selecting a file, in
I created a workaround with directive:
.directive("fileread", [function () {
return {
scope: {
fileread: "="
},
link: function (scope, element, attributes) {
element.bind("change", function (changeEvent) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function (loadEvent) {
scope.$apply(function () {
scope.fileread = loadEvent.target.result;
});
}
reader.readAsDataURL(changeEvent.target.files[0]);
});
}
}
}]);
And the input tag becomes:
Or if just the file definition is needed:
.directive("fileread", [function () {
return {
scope: {
fileread: "="
},
link: function (scope, element, attributes) {
element.bind("change", function (changeEvent) {
scope.$apply(function () {
scope.fileread = changeEvent.target.files[0];
// or all selected files:
// scope.fileread = changeEvent.target.files;
});
});
}
}
}]);
