Instead of selecting or dragging a file, can i set a file from an URL file?

I want to have a web page with a preloaded file from an URL. Thanks.

No because if you load file from an URL, you might get CORS issues.

But if it is loaded from an URL of the same domain?

@softmaniaperu

What is the way you want to read the URL?

  • From a URL query like this: https://meowtec.github.io/audio-cutter/dist/?audio=https://host/path.mp3 ?
  • Or read from a text box such as window.prompt()?

If CORS is not a problem, both are easy to implement. All that needs to be done is adding a componentDidMount lifecycle in src/index.tsx, and fetch the audio URL to a blob, then call handleFileChang(blob). (We should modify File to Blob on some places).

If you can code, PR welcome.
