Checking And Saving A File In S3

Re: Checking And Saving A File In S3

Your issue is probably that you've not set CORS Configuration on your S3 Bucket. Have you set CORS Configuration? You've also not included the console errors you're probably getting.

Re: Checking And Saving A File In S3

The code returns name, how do I reference the name so I can do an ajax callback to update a database table with the name?

Re: Checking And Saving A File In S3

I think you need to have a look around the area you're in. You've got the File Upload - Amazon S3 dialog open... there are a ton of events and information shown here.

If you're referring to the code in "Target object name on Amazon S3" - not sure if you are... because you haven't said... then you don't do anything here except name the file.

There is another event... On Upload Complete... 2 of these actually. You have info available in these events... like e.targetName... so you'd perform an Ajax Callback... sending along this info.

Re: Checking And Saving A File In S3

This is the ajax callback code I have in the On Upload Complete {dialog.object}.ajaxCallback('','','updatePetItemFsboUrl','','_petitemName='+e.targetname); then in the XBasic function I have petitemName = e._targetName. It is saying e._targetName subelement not found.

Re: Checking And Saving A File In S3

You're passing the value of e._targetName through to the XBasic callback via the variable _petitemName.

You're looking for the variable e._targetName... when you should be looking for the variable you defined... e._petitemName.

Re: Checking And Saving A File In S3

Now the file that is uploaded has undefined in the filename so test.jpg is now test_undefined_jdxpp2qh.jpg. Also the url that is getting written has undefined at the end of the string with no other part of the filename. I guess var ulCnt isnt defined correctly?

var ulCnt = {dialog.Object}.__S3Cnt;

var arr = e.name.split('.')
arr[0] = arr[0] + '_' + ulCnt + '_' + A5.ts();
var name = arr.join('.');

{dialog.Object}.__S3Cnt = ulCnt + 1;

return name;

Re: Checking And Saving A File In S3

{dialog.Object}.__S3Cnt was a dialog object namespace variable I established in onRenderComplete... I had something like {dialog.Object}.__S3Cnt = 1;

But you don't really need it... just use...

arr[0] = arr[0] + '_' + A5.ts();

as in...

var arr = e.name.split('.')
arr[0] = arr[0] + '_' + A5.ts();
var name = arr.join('.');

return name;

How did you get the file uploaded? Was it CORS?

Re: Checking And Saving A File In S3

Yeah it was CORS thought l already set that so thought it was in the code. That fixed the filename but the url is still writing undefined instead any part of the filename. Also I like to understand the code, with arr[0] = arr[0] + '_' + A5.ts(); is this used because of the list control that is being used to get the data? What is A5.ts(); doing?

[Davidk]

Re: Checking And Saving A File In S3

A5.ts() is just adding a unique timestamp to the filename.

You said you're uploading test.jpg... and that the filename from the Action is being set as test_undefined_jdxpp2qh.jpg. So... the test part is ok... and the jpg part is ok. The undefined part was because of that namespace variable... now gone. So now, the e._targetName should be something like test_jdxpp2qh.jpg.

When did the List control come into play?

arr is an array resulting from splitting the e.name var into 2 pieces based on the filename period (.). arr[0] is the filename part of the file. arr[1] would be the filetype part of the file. The code is splitting up the value of e.name, changing the filename part - adding a timestamp, and then putting the filename back together with the filetype.

Good to know it was the CORS Configuration causing the XHR error.

Re: Checking And Saving A File In S3

I have this in Upload Complete for Ajax callback: {dialog.object}.ajaxCallback('','','updatePetItemFsboUrl','','_petitemName='+e.targetname); Then below is the XBasic function:

function updatePetItemFsboUrl as v (e as p)
'-- used if cant get checked existing filename working

dim globalcn as sql::connection
dim sql as c
dim args as sql::arguments
dim flag as l
dim petitemName as c



flag = globalcn.open("::name::petvv")
args.set("petitemid", e.dataSubmitted.itemid)

petitemName = e._petitemName
petitemName = "https://s3.amazonaws.com/pvvpetitemsfsbo/" + petitemName


sql = "UPDATE pvv_items_for_sale SET IMAGE = '" + petitemName + "' where ITEMID = :PETITEMID"
flag = globalcn.execute(sql,args)


This is the url it is writing to the IMAGE field, https://s3.amazonaws.com/pvvpetitemsfsbo/undefined so why isnt petitemName getting set to e.targetName which is e._petitemName?

Re: Checking And Saving A File In S3

You're using e.targetname in the callback... it needs to be e.targetName - in Javascript, case matters.
