OnUploadComplete - additional parameter

Open jfrueh opened this issue 11 years ago • 3 comments

Hi Rick - love this project. It's really turned out to be useful for us, so thanks for providing it. This is not an issue - just a question. I'm needing to have a few additional parameters available to me other than just the filename when the OnUploadComplete(string fileName) method is called on the server side. Would you know how to do this?

Thanks,

What else do you want to get? There's no other data available since the last request will only hold the file chunk that's being transmitted.

I was hoping that on upload complete (successful) I could trigger some custom server side processes. What I want to execute requires a user id to be passed as well. I know this id when I make the POST call to the server, but wasn't sure how to pass it along.

I appreciate the response. Thanks,

How I've just implemented this, because I need my files uploaded to be associated back to a primary record, is I return the filename in the upload complete, store this in a hidden field, and then when the main form is posted, I have a reference to the file. I agree a "passthrough" would be useful as I've needed this with plupload before. I believe you can add additional multipart parameters via the native plupload API and then they should be in the httpcontext request object for you to grab. http://www.bennadel.com/blog/2506-storing-per-file-multipart-params-in-the-plupload-queue.htm
