Upload twice same file do not trigger upload about cj-upload

[zackify]

@michaelpoltorak you can pass that through uploadProps on the component, ex uploadProps={{onClick: () => blah}} 👍

Every time a change occurs the onChange is triggered, if the file isn't changed, it's not going to happen. Why would you want to upload the same file twice? This seems out of the scope of the component, all it does is wrap an input and onChange, nothing special.

My fault, I was trying to upload 2 file with the same name and content generated automatically in the same moment. When content or date changes upload triggers correctly.

In my code I intercept the upload process to display a UI component before doing the upload request. Hence, the user may end up in a situation where it actually makes sense to upload the same file twice.

Is it possible you could make re-uploading an option?

[zackify]

I'm not doing anything special, as you can see here. https://github.com/navjobs/upload/blob/master/src/upload-field.js#L25

It simply calls onChange when something changes.

What your asking is the same as "I have an input field, I want onChange called again, even when nothing changes"

A solution for you would be to store the files object, ex onFiles={files => this.setState({files})}

Now, when your ui component says there was a problem uploading, you can grab the files again from this.state.files and reupload them :)

Hope that helps! @michaelpoltorak

@zackify I'm not sure I made my self entirely clear - my bad.

What I need is that the value on the input be reset after an upload. It can be done by simply adding a handler that resets the value on click like this:

<input type='file' onClick={(e) => { e.target.value = ''; } onChange={(e) => ...} />

How does that sound to you?

I see, how about this: https://github.com/navjobs/upload/releases/tag/3.1.3 Now you can add the onChange handler yourself! @ michaelpoltorak

[michaelpoltorak]

Brilliant.
I still need to be able to reset the input value on click, so if you could add a custom onClick handler too, I'd be very happy :-) Thanks for the quick responses.

@zackify: Perfect. And thanks.
