Editor -File Upload validation with MIME type

soluciones

Hi,

I need to use MIME type to check file content validation in file upload.

How can I implement it?

A custom validator would be the way to do this. $file['type'] will give you the MIME type.

But how to validation MIME type before upload the file?

For example, in preSubmit event? How to access image properties?

editor.on( 'preSubmit', function ( e, o, a ) {

var files =this.val( 'trabajos.file_id' );

The preUpload event is how to do this on the client-side. It will give the mime type as part of the third parameter.

Remember to check it on the server-side as well though, since client-side validation can always be bypassed.

And how can I check it on the server-side?

Can you give me an example for MIME TYPE? I have validations for size and extensions

->validator( function ( $file ) {

                return $file['size'] >= 500000 ?
                    "Files must be smaller than 500K" :
                    null;
            } )
            ->allowedExtensions( array( 'png', 'jpg', 'gif','jpeg' ), "Please upload an image" )

Thanks,

allan

Almost exactly the same as your file size validator:

->validator( function ( $file ) {
    return $file['type'] !== ... ?
        "Wrong file type" :
        null;
} )

I have this code

return $file['type'] !== 'image/jpeg' or $file['type'] !== 'image/jpg' ?
"Wrong file type " . $file['type'] :
null;

But I have uploaded a .svg image renamed as .jpg and allows it

allan

If you debug the code, what is it giving $file['type'] as?
