API for uploading files (of any type)

[imadBelaroussi]

I want to share my custom controller to add the api to upload files of any type.

you can use this API http://localhost:8080/api.php/upload with the POST method to send your files, with the variable file(configurable with the "$name_in_files" variable), you will find your files in the directory archive/ (configurable with the "$path" variable).

if you are motivated, then go copy this code and you will have this best API for this wonderful project

namespace ImadDev\CustomController {
    use Psr\Http\Message\ResponseInterface;
    use Psr\Http\Message\ServerRequestInterface;
    use Tqdev\PhpCrudApi\Cache\Cache;
    use Tqdev\PhpCrudApi\Column\ReflectionService;
    use Tqdev\PhpCrudApi\Controller\Responder;
    use Tqdev\PhpCrudApi\Database\GenericDB;
    use Tqdev\PhpCrudApi\Middleware\Router\Router;

    class MyCustomController {
    
        private $responder;
    
        public function __construct(Router $router, Responder $responder, GenericDB $db, ReflectionService $reflection, Cache $cache)
        {
            $router->register('POST', '/upload', array($this, 'getUploadFile'));
            $this->responder = $responder;
        }
    
         public function getUploadFile(ServerRequestInterface $request): ResponseInterface
        {
            $path = "archive/";
            $name_in_files = 'file';

            if(!isset($_FILES[$name_in_files])) return $this->responder->error(1003, $name_in_files,['message' => "filename should be 'file'"]);
            elseif($_FILES[$name_in_files]['error']!=0) return $this->responder->error(1008, $name_in_files,['message' => "error saving file"]);
            elseif(file_exists($path.$_FILES[$name_in_files]['name'])) return $this->responder->error(1009, '',['message' => "filename duplicated : ".$_FILES[$name_in_files]['name']]);
            else{
                if(!is_dir($path)) mkdir($path);

                $name = $_FILES[$name_in_files]['name'];

                move_uploaded_file($_FILES[$name_in_files]['tmp_name'],$path.$name);
                
                return $this->responder->success(['message' => "file saved successfully"]);
            }
        }
    }
}

and add this in config parameter:

$config = new Config([
                ...
                'customControllers' => 'ImadDev\CustomController\MyCustomController',
                ...
]);

the variable $path is to put the folder where the files will be stored (by default "archive/") and the variable $name_in_files is the name of the variable in you sent with your files (by default "file")

i got 404 not found error

[scriptPilot]

I have 404 as well - somewhere in this block:

if(!isset($_FILES[$name_in_files])) return $this->responder->error(1003, $name_in_files,['message' => "filename should be 'file'"]);
          elseif($_FILES[$name_in_files]['error']!=0) return $this->responder->error(1008, $name_in_files,['message' => "error saving file"]);          
          elseif(file_exists($path.$_FILES[$name_in_files]['name'])) return $this->responder->error(1009, '',['message' => "filename duplicated : ".$_FILES[$name_in_files]['name']]);
          
          else{
              if(!is_dir($path)) mkdir($path);
              $name = $_FILES[$name_in_files]['name'];

              move_uploaded_file($_FILES[$name_in_files]['tmp_name'],$path.$name);
              return $this->responder->success(['message' => "file saved successfully"]);
          }

When I uncomment, there is no more error 404. Success messages are properly given to frontend.

Error messages are shown always as 404 or 500.

Basically, already this line results in error 404 return:

if(!isset($_FILES[$name_in_files])) return $this->responder->error(1003, $name_in_files,['message' => "filename should be 'file'"]);

This line results in a proper response:

return $this->responder->success(['message' => "file saved successfully"]);

Does anybody have a clue or solution?
