Capture and upload photos. The controlsource may be table.column format or filename.rsp to handle custom uploads.

Code:

Lianja.getPhoto(onsuccess, onerror, controlsource, containerid, append, keyfield, keyfieldvalue, includefiles)

Capture and upload videos. The controlsource may be table.column format or filename.rsp to handle custom uploads.

Code:

Lianja.getVideo(onsuccess, onerror, controlsource, containerid, append, keyfield, keyfieldvalue, includefiles)

Audio recording

Capture and upload audio recordings. The controlsource may be table.column format or filename.rsp to handle custom uploads.

Code:

Lianja.getAudio(onsuccess, onerror, controlsource, containerid, append, keyfield, keyfieldvalue, includefiles)

Custom upload handler on the server

The following example can be used.

Code:

<%@ Language="VFP" %>
<%


// Authentication as admin or verify APIKEY
if username() != 'admin'
    if getenv("DB_APIKEY") != getmember("_server", "HTTP_LIANJAAPIKEY", "") 
        ? "Nok incorrect APIKEY " + username()
        return
    endif
endif


// The _FILES array contains details of the file that was uploaded
cc=len(_FILES)
if cc > 0
    m_name = _files[ 1 ].name 
    m_name = str_replace("'", "", m_name)
    m_name = basename(m_name)
    m_tmpname = _files[ 1 ].tmp_name
    if endsWith(m_name, ".png") or ;
        endsWith(m_name, ".jpg") or ;
        endsWith(m_name, ".jpeg") or ;
        endsWith(m_name, ".gif")
        // We can use move_uploaded_file() to safely move the uploaded file to where we want it saved
        // alternatively we can open a database and table and insert a new record 
        // specifying the filename as the "Blob" field value
        //
        // move_uploaded_file(m_tmpname, "images/"+m_name)
        //
        ? "Ok"
    else
        ? "Nok prohibited file type"
    endif
else
    ? "Nok no files specified"
