Yii2 Files
==========

[](#yii2-files)

An easy to use api File upload with a model class.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The preferred way to install this extension is through [composer](http://getcomposer.org/download/).

Either run

```
composer require unique/yii2-files

```

or add

```
"unique/yii2-files": "@dev"

```

to the require section of your `composer.json` file.

To create DB tables run migration file:

```
./yii migrate --migrationPath="vendor/unique/yii2-files/src/migrations"

```

or add to your config file:

```
        'controllerMap' => [
            'migrate' => [
                'class' => 'yii\console\controllers\MigrateController',
                'migrationNamespaces' => [
                    'unique\\yii2files\\migrations',
                ]
            ],
        ]
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

In order to use the behavior, you first need to load the module. Module can only be loaded once. Add the following to your config file:

```

```

Then use `UploadAction` in your api controller, for example:

```
    class FilesController extends \yii\rest\Controller {

        public function actions(){

            return array_merge( parent::actions(), [
                'class' => \unique\yii2files\UploadAction::class,
            ] );
        }
    }
```

Now, you can use something like uppy to easily upload files:

```

    export default defineComponent( {
        computed: {
            uppy() {
                return new Uppy( {
                    restrictions: { maxNumberOfFiles: 1 }
                } )
                        .use( XHR, {
                            endpoint: this.$url( '/api/files/upload' ),
                        } )
                        .on( 'upload-success', ( file, response ) => {
                            console.log( file, response );

                            // All File model fields:
                            response.body;
                        } );
            },
        }
    } )

```
