The code will helps to insert file
<body ng-app = "myApp">
<form ng-controller="insert_Ctrl" method="post" action="" name="myForm" enctype="multipart/form-data" novalidate>
<div>
<p><input type="file" ng-model="myFile" class="form-control" onchange="angular.element(this).scope().uploadedFile(this)">
<span style="color:red" ng-show="(myForm.myFile.$error.required&&myForm.myFile.$touched)">Select Picture</span>
</p>
</div>
<div>
<input type="button" name="submit" ng-click="uploadFile()" class="btn-primary" ng-disabled="myForm.myFile.$invalid" value="insert">
</div>
</form>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.4.8/angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="insert.js"></script>
</body>
insert.js
var app = angular.module('myApp',[]);
app.service('uploadFile', ['$http','$window', function ($http,$window) {
this.uploadFiletoServer = function(file,uploadUrl){
var fd = new FormData();
fd.append('file', file);
$http.post(uploadUrl, fd, {
transformRequest: angular.identity,
headers: {'Content-Type': undefined}
})
.success(function(data){
alert("insert successfull");
$window.location.href = ' ';//your window location
})
.error(function(){
alert("Error");
});
}
}]);
app.controller('insert_Ctrl', ['$scope', 'uploadFile', function($scope, uploadFile){
$scope.uploadFile = function() {
$scope.myFile = $scope.files[0];
var file = $scope.myFile;
var url = "save_data.php";
uploadFile.uploadFiletoServer(file,url);
};
$scope.uploadedFile = function(element) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function(event) {
$scope.$apply(function($scope) {
$scope.files = element.files;
$scope.src = event.target.result
});
}
reader.readAsDataURL(element.files[0]);
}
}]);
save_data.php
<?php
require "dbconnection.php";
$ext = pathinfo($_FILES['file']['name'],PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
$image = time().'.'.$ext;
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],"upload/".$image);
$query="insert into test_table values ('null','$image')";
mysqli_query($con,$query);
?>
The easiest is to use HTML5 API, namely FileReader
HTML is pretty straightforward:
<input type="file" id="file" name="file"/>
<button ng-click="add()">Add</button>
In your controller define 'add' method:
$scope.add = function() {
var f = document.getElementById('file').files[0],
r = new FileReader();
r.onloadend = function(e) {
var data = e.target.result;
//send your binary data via $http or $resource or do anything else with it
}
r.readAsBinaryString(f);
}
Browser Compatibility
Desktop Browsers
Edge 12, Firefox(Gecko) 3.6(1.9.2), Chrome 7, Opera* 12.02, Safari 6.0.2
Mobile Browsers
Firefox(Gecko) 32, Chrome 3, Opera* 11.5, Safari 6.1
Note : readAsBinaryString() method is deprecated and readAsArrayBuffer() should be used instead.
You can achieve nice file and folder upload using flow.js.
https://github.com/flowjs/ng-flow
Check out a demo here
http://flowjs.github.io/ng-flow/
It doesn't support IE7, IE8, IE9, so you'll eventually have to use a compatibility layer

Some of the answers here propose using FormData()
, but unfortunately that is a browser object not available in Internet Explorer 9 and below. If you need to support those older browsers, you will need a backup strategy such as using <iframe>
or Flash.
There are already many Angular.js modules to perform file uploading. These two have explicit support for older browsers:
And some other options:
One of these should fit your project, or may give you some insight into how to code it yourself.
