plupload add file function

I have dragged'n'dropped a file on the textarea. I have the file object in JavaScript. So now I would like to call a function to add it to the pluploadQueue.

How do I do that?

I assumed that would be a function like: pluploadQueue.addFile( File ) or uploader.addFile( File ) but I can't find it anywhere.

Any ideas?

Solution

  • There's no included support yet to do that in plupload, but you can add it by exposing addSelectedFiles.

    on plupload.html5.js search for where addSelectedfiles is defined and replace that line with: 

    var addSelectedFiles = uploader.addFiles = function(native_files) {

    You can later access this from your instance by calling myinstance.addFiles(...)

    You can see me making this suggestion around 7 months ago here: https://github.com/moxiecode/plupload/issues/461
    sadly, the plupload devs are mostly MIA.
