Create multiple input type=“file” elements with their corresponding value (FileList) according to the main input type=“file” (multiple) element

问题

I have this code where I loop unto files from a multiple input file type

$(function(){

$('#main-input').change(function(){
  var files = $('#main-input')[0].files;
  for (var i = 0, f; f = files[i]; i++) {

      alert(files[i].name);

  }
});

});

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type="file" id="main-input" multiple>

What I'm trying to achieve, is clone the main input (#main-input) and gives a value (file) base on the loop files. Any ideas, suggestions please? or is this even possible?

Yes, the requirement is possible. You will need to create a new FileList for each File object, then set .files property of the <input type="file"> element to the FileList populated with the File object.

The code at below returns the same results at Chromium 62+ and Firefox 57+, see comments by @Kaiido for evaluations at Safari and Edge.

// FileList.js
class FileList {
  constructor(...items) {
    // flatten rest parameter
    items = [].concat(...items);
    // check if every element of array is an instance of `File`
    if (items.length && !items.every(file => file instanceof File)) {
      throw new TypeError("expected argument to FileList is File or array of File objects");
    }
    // use `ClipboardEvent("").clipboardData` for Firefox, which returns `null` at Chromium
    // we just need the `DataTransfer` instance referenced by `.clipboardData`
    const dt = new ClipboardEvent("").clipboardData || new DataTransfer();
    // add `File` objects to `DataTransfer` `.items`
    for (let file of items) {
      dt.items.add(file)
    }
    return dt.files;
  }
}

document.querySelector("input[type=file]")
.onchange = e => {
  for (let file of e.target.files) {
    const input = document.createElement("input");
    input.type = "file";
    input.files = new FileList(file);
    document.body.appendChild(input);
  }
}

<input type="file" multiple>

// FileList.js
function _FileList(items) {
    // flatten rest parameter
    items = [].concat.apply([], [items]);
    // check if every element of array is an instance of `File`
    if (items.length 
        && !items.every(function(file) { 
             return file instanceof File})) {
      throw new TypeError("expected argument to FileList is File or array of File objects");
    }
    // use `ClipboardEvent("").clipboardData` for Firefox, which returns `null` at Chromium
    // we just need the `DataTransfer` instance referenced by `.clipboardData`
    var dt = new ClipboardEvent("").clipboardData || new DataTransfer();
    // add `File` objects to `DataTransfer` `.items`
    for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
      dt.items.add(items[i])
    }
    return dt.files;
}

document.querySelector("input[type=file]")
.onchange = function(e) {
  for (var i = 0; i < e.target.files.length; i++) {
    var input = document.createElement("input");
    input.type = "file";
    input.files = new _FileList(e.target.files[i]);
    document.body.appendChild(input);
  }
}

<input type="file" multiple>
