I have a form that uploads many files and images at the same time.
the problem is this method
$this->upload->display_errors()
each time the loop goes through this method it saves error from the previous loop round
$error[$i]= "File error: ".$this->upload->display_errors();
for example, if I uploaded two illegal files it shows me this
index 0: file is not allowed
index 1: file is not allowed file is not allowed
So how can I reset this method?
ps: I tried to reset() function and it didn't work
UPDATE
This is the method
public function do_upload($product_id)
{
$error = array();
if(isset($_FILES['files']['name'])&&!empty($_FILES['files']['name'][0])):
for ($i=0; $i <count($_FILES['files']['name']) ; $i++) :
$config['upload_path'] = './images/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['max_size'] = 1;
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
$_FILES['files[]']['name'] = $_FILES['files']['name'][$i];
$_FILES['files[]']['tmp_name'] = $_FILES['files']['tmp_name'][$i];
$_FILES['files[]']['size'] = $_FILES['files']['size'][$i];
if(!$this->upload->do_upload('files[]')){
$error[$i]= "File name: ". $_FILES['files']['name'][$i] ." ". $this->upload->display_errors() ."<br>";
}else{
$files = $this->upload->data();
$data = array('file_name'=>$files['file_name'],'product_id'=>$product_id,'file_type'=>$files['file_type']);
$this->Files_model->create_file($data);
}
endfor;
endif;
return $error;
//end method
}
We can't reset $this->upload->do_upload();
But we can reinitialize like that
// first upload
$this->config->load('upload');
-- Code to upload Here --
// Another file
$this->config->load('upload_other_files');
-- Code to upload Here --
OR You can defined multiple config array for each file Like below code :
$config['upload_path'] = './uploads/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['max_size'] = '100';
$config['max_width'] = '1024';
$config['max_height'] = '768';
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
$this->upload->initialize($config);
For another files
$config2['upload_path'] = './uploads/';
$config2['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config2['max_size'] = '100';
$config2['max_width'] = '100';
$config2['max_height'] = '100';
$this->load->library('upload', $config2);
// Alternately you can set
$this->upload->initialize($config2);
You can reset (errors) like this:
$this->upload->error_msg = [];
...do_upload
I want to upload two images with my given name
$config['upload_path'] = '/path/to/file';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['max_size'] = '0';
$config['file_name'] ='logo1_'.$_POST['name'];
$config['max_width'] = '0';
$config['max_height'] = '0';
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload('image1'))
{...}
else
{
$data = $this->upload->data();
}
$config2['upload_path'] = '/path/to/file';
$config2['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config2['max_size'] = '0';
$config2['file_name'] = 'logo2_'.$_POST['name'];
$config2['max_width'] = '0';
$config2['max_height'] = '0';
$this->load->library('upload', $config2);
if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload('image2'))
{...}
else
{
$data = $this->upload->data();
}
My first image correctly saved in my folder with the name logo1_myname but my second image dosen't save as logo2_myname it save as logo1_myname1 What is wrong with my code ?
Change
$this->load->library('upload', $config2);
to
$this->upload->initialize($config2);
Since the class has already been loaded codeigniter won't load it again.
Hope this helps.
I have a problem with my multiple upload with codeigniter,
using image
another using pdf
When I uploaded the file uploaded twice and how to call different path to uploaded to database. this my code
Controller
public function upload(){
$catalog='catalog';
$userfile='userfile';
//for cover
$config['upload_path'] = './file/book/'; //Use relative or absolute path
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png|';
$config['max_size'] = '100000';
$config['max_width'] = '1024';
$config['max_height'] = '768';
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
$this->upload->initialize($config);
//$c=$this->upload->do_upload($userfile);
//for catalog
$config['upload_path'] = './file/book/pdf/'; //Use relative or absolute path
$config['allowed_types'] = 'pdf';
$config['max_size'] = '1000000';
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
$this->upload->initialize($config);
//$cat=$this->upload->do_upload($catalog);
if(!$this->upload->do_upload($catalog) && $this->upload->do_upload($userfile)){
$error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
$this->load->view('uploadds', $error);
}else{
$this->load->model("book_model");
$this->book_model->addnewbook();
redirect('book/book');
}
}
This model
function addnewbook(){
$fcat=array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data($userfile));
$fcatalog=array('upload_dataa' => $this->upload->data($catalog));
}
You need to handle multiple uploads independently. For this, you have to create separate custom objects for both uploads while loading the upload library. (See the code comments)
public function upload() {
// Cover upload
$config = array();
$config['upload_path'] = './file/book/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png|';
$config['max_size'] = '100000';
$config['max_width'] = '1024';
$config['max_height'] = '768';
$this->load->library('upload', $config, 'coverupload'); // Create custom object for cover upload
$this->coverupload->initialize($config);
$upload_cover = $this->coverupload->do_upload('cover');
// Catalog upload
$config = array();
$config['upload_path'] = './file/book/pdf/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'pdf';
$config['max_size'] = '1000000';
$this->load->library('upload', $config, 'catalogupload'); // Create custom object for catalog upload
$this->catalogupload->initialize($config);
$upload_catalog = $this->catalogupload->do_upload('catalog');
// Check uploads success
if ($upload_cover && $upload_catalog) {
// Both Upload Success
// Data of your cover file
$cover_data = $this->coverupload->data();
print_r($cover_data);
// Data of your catalog file
$catlog_data = $this->catalogupload->data();
print_r($catlog_data);
} else {
// Error Occured in one of the uploads
echo 'Cover upload Error : ' . $this->coverupload->display_errors() . '<br/>';
echo 'Catlog upload Error : ' . $this->catalogupload->display_errors() . '<br/>';
}
}
Use the data on $cover_data['full_path'] and $catlog_data['full_path'] to update your database
$config['upload_path'] = 'frontend_assets/images/hospital';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png|jpeg|JPEG||JPG|PNG';
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
if($_FILES['logo']['name']){
$config['file_name'] = time() . $_FILES["logo"]['name'];
if (!$this->upload->do_upload('logo')) {
$this->upload->display_errors();
} else {
$upload = $this->upload->data();
$insert_data['logo'] = $config['upload_path'] . '/' . $upload['file_name'];
}
}
if($_FILES['bulding_photo']['name']){
$config['file_name'] = time() . $_FILES["bulding_photo"]['name'];
if (!$this->upload->do_upload('bulding_photo')) {
$this->upload->display_errors());
} else {
$upload = $this->upload->data();
$insert_data['bulding_photo'] = $config['upload_path'] . '/' . $upload['file_name'];
$this->image_size_fix($insert_data['bulding_photo'], $width = 200, $height = 200);
}
}
I'm trying to add time as the prefix of the image name along with the original name when uploading, But I couldn't figure it out. Please help me with the following code to add a prefix to my original file name when uploading.
<?php
class Upload extends CI_Controller {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));
}
function index()
{
$this->load->view('upload_form', array('error' => ' ' ));
}
function do_upload()
{
$config['upload_path'] = 'Public/uploads/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['max_size'] = '1024';
$config['max_width'] = '1024';
$config['max_height'] = '768';
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload())
{
$error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
$this->load->view('upload_form', $error);
}
else
{
$data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
$this->load->view('upload_success', $data);
}
}
}
?>
You can encrypt file name with use of CI native option:
$config['encrypt_name'] = TRUE;
OR
You can do it with your own code:
$new_name = time().$_FILES["userfiles"]['name'];
$config['file_name'] = $new_name;
For some reasons, consecutive calls to the do_upload function doesn't work. It sticks to the first filename set by the first function call
$small_photo_url = $this->upload_photo('picture_small', $this->next_id.'_small ');
$medium_photo_url = $this->upload_photo('picture_medium', $this->next_id.'_medium');
$large_photo_url = $this->upload_photo('picture_large', $this->next_id.'_large ');
The filenames will all be "00001_small", "00001_small1", "00001_small2"
given the following configurations
function upload_photo($field_name, $filename)
{
$config['upload_path'] = 'Public/uploads/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['max_size'] = '1024';
$config['max_width'] = '1024';
$config['max_height'] = '768';
$config['file_name'] = $filename;
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload())...
I think it's because this line doesn't work the second time you call it. It does not set the configurations again
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
==========================================================================
Solution to the problem faced during consecutive do_upload function calls:
// re-initialize upload library
$this->upload->initialize($config);
/* Conf */
$new_name = time().$_FILES["userfiles"]['name'];
$config['file_name'] = $new_name;
$config['upload_path'] = './upload/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['max_size'] = '';
$config['max_width'] = '';
$config['max_height'] = '';
$config['file_ext_tolower'] = TRUE;
/* Load the upload library */
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
For what you are exactly looking for, this worked for me:
$path = $_FILES['image']['name'];
$newName = "<Whatever name>".".".pathinfo($path, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
when you use do_upload() function its rename file name if already exists and upload file
System->libraries->Upload.php
default function of do_upload() return true or false
replace
return $this->upload_path.$this->file_name;
and in another file
<input type='file' name='userfile'/>
<?php
$upload_file_name = $this->upload->do_upload('userfile');
$finalname;
if (!$upload_file_name) {
$finalname = 'default.png';
} else {
$split_data_upload_file_name = explode("/", $upload_file_name);
foreach ($split_data_upload_file_name as $i => $value) {
$finalname = $value;
}
}
?>
$config['file_name'] = $new_name;
Just add it align with the config codes.
This should be after the upload.
Process the filename you want here:
$a=$this->upload->data();
rename($a['full_path'],$a['file_path'].'file_name_you_want');
Try This:
$config['file_name'] = "yourCustomFileName";
If your $config is with this code: $config['encrypt_name'] = TRUE;
the name of your file will be forced to rename with a encrypt name, just remove the code.
Solution 1: Upload file with new customized and specific name (Note: this answer is applicable when you are submitting a unique name of a record, for example student name is a unique value in a record then you will use $_POST['student_name'])
$config['file_name'] = str_replace(' ', '_', $_POST['anyUniqueValue']);
//any Other unique value that you are using to submit with this file
$config['upload_path'] = './folderName/';
$config['encrypt_name'] = FALSE;
Solution 2: Upload file with new unique name
$config['file_name'] = time();
$config['upload_path'] = './folderName/';
$config['encrypt_name'] = FALSE;
Solution 3: Upload file with new unique name using codeigniter's default option
$config['encrypt_name'] = TRUE;
if you do multiple file upload, maybe you can try update library Upload.php
on system/libraries/Upload.php. On function do_upload()
$this->file_name = $this->_prep_filename($_file['name']);
to
$this->file_name = time().'_'.$this->_prep_filename($_file['name']);
I have the below code but I am unsure how I can do the upload errors due to having more then one $this->do_upload
$location = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/_assets/quote/uploads/';
$folderName = $this->quote->getCompanyDetails()->companyName;
$folderName = str_replace(" ", "_", $folderName);
$folderName = strtolower($folderName);
$concepts = array('conceptOne','conceptTwo');
$logo = $folderName.'_logo';
if(!is_dir($location.$folderName))
{
mkdir($location.$folderName);
chmod($location.$folderName, 0777);
}
//Set File Settings
$config['upload_path'] = $location.$folderName;
$config['allowed_types'] = 'jpg|png|pdf';
$config['remove_spaces'] = TRUE;
$config['overwrite'] = TRUE;
$config['max_size'] = '1024';
$config['max_width'] = '1024';
$config['max_height'] = '768';
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
// Upload Concepts
foreach($concepts as $concept)
{
$config['file_name'] = $concept;
$this->upload->initialize($config);
$this->upload->do_upload($concept);
}
//Upload Logo
$config['file_name'] = $logo;
$this->upload->initialize($config);
$this->upload->do_upload('logo');
// Upload Concepts
foreach($concepts as $concept)
{
$config['file_name'] = $concept;
$this->upload->initialize($config);
if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload($concept))
{
$error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
break;
}
}
