Get file size, image width and height before upload

Question

How can I get the file size, image height and width before upload to my website, with jQuery or JavaScript?

Answer 1

A working jQuery validate example:

   $(function () {
        $('input[type=file]').on('change', function() {
            var $el = $(this);
            var files = this.files;
            var image = new Image();
            image.onload = function() {
                $el
                    .attr('data-upload-width', this.naturalWidth)
                    .attr('data-upload-height', this.naturalHeight);
            }

            image.src = URL.createObjectURL(files[0]);
        });

        jQuery.validator.unobtrusive.adapters.add('imageminwidth', ['imageminwidth'], function (options) {
            var params = {
                imageminwidth: options.params.imageminwidth.split(',')
            };

            options.rules['imageminwidth'] = params;
            if (options.message) {
                options.messages['imageminwidth'] = options.message;
            }
        });

        jQuery.validator.addMethod("imageminwidth", function (value, element, param) {
            var $el = $(element);
            if(!element.files && element.files[0]) return true;
            return parseInt($el.attr('data-upload-width')) >=  parseInt(param["imageminwidth"][0]);
        });

    } (jQuery));
