concrete5 - how to get files uploaded through ajax in php

Question

I\'m trying to upload multiple files through ajax but I can\'t figure out how to get the uploaded files in PHP. I sent them

var attachments = $(\'.attachment-file

Working solution:

Here's how you send multiple files with ajax.

JS:

var post_data = new FormData();
attachments.each(function(i, v) {
    post_data.append('my_file[]', v.files[0]);
    console.log(v.files[0]);
});

PHP:

$files = $this->request->files;
$files = $files->get('my_file');
foreach ($files as $file) {
    \Log::Info(var_dump_safe($file->getClientOriginalName()));
}

It's all working now.

PS. Don't forget not to post and upload files bigger than the PHP limits of post_max_size and upload_max_size!
