//Follow this instruction
File
<input
type="file"
ref="image2"
v-on:change="handleFilesUpload()"
/>
In methods properties
handleFilesUpload() {
let uploadedFiles = this.$refs.image2.files;
let fileExtension = uploadedFiles[0].name.replace(/^.*\./, "");
//console.log("fileExtension", fileExtension);
let allowedExtensions = /(\.jpg|\.JPG|\.jpeg|\.JPEG|\.png|\.PNG|\.pdf|\.PDF|\.doc|\.docx)$/i;
if (!allowedExtensions.exec(uploadedFiles[0].name)) {
var message = "You can upload jpg, jpeg, png, pdf and docx file only";
this.$refs.image2.value = "";
this.documentFiles = [];
} else {
//console.log("uploadedFiles[i] = ", uploadedFiles[0]);
//Upload for single file
this.documentFiles = uploadedFiles;
//Upload for multiple file
/*
for (var i = 0; i < uploadedFiles.length; i++) {
this.documentFiles.push(uploadedFiles[i]);
}
*/
}
},
// After submit form
validateBeforeSubmit(e) {
let formData = new FormData();
for (var i = 0; i < this.documentFiles.length; i++) {
let file = this.documentFiles[i];
formData.append("files[" + i + "]", file);
}
axios.post('laravel-api-url', formData)
.then(res => {
console.log({res});
}).catch(err => {
console.error({err});
});
},
