get renamed file names of multiple upload form [js array] in codeigniter
- by artmania
Hi friends,
I use codeigniter. I have a multiple image upload form. The code below is working well for uploading, but I also need to save file names to database. How can I get the names in here?
I spent hours & hours :/ but could not sort it :/
Appreciate helps!!!
uploadform.php
echo form_open_multipart('gallery/upload');
<input type="file" name="photo" size="50" />
<input type="file" name="thumb" size="50" />
<input type="submit" value="Upload" />
</form>
I have a controller between form view and model load model (of course : )) but didnt post here because of no need.
gallery_model.php
function multiple_upload($upload_dir = 'uploads/', $config = array())
{
/* Upload */
$CI =& get_instance();
$files = array();
if(empty($config))
{
$config['upload_path'] = realpath($upload_dir);
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|jpeg|jpe|png';
$config['max_size'] = '2048';
}
$CI->load->library('upload', $config);
$errors = FALSE;
foreach($_FILES as $key => $value)
{
if( ! empty($value['name']))
{
if( ! $CI->upload->do_upload($key))
{
$data['upload_message'] = $CI->upload->display_errors(ERR_OPEN, ERR_CLOSE); // ERR_OPEN and ERR_CLOSE are error delimiters defined in a config file
$CI->load->vars($data);
$errors = TRUE;
}
else
{
// Build a file array from all uploaded files
$files[] = $CI->upload->data();
}
}
}
// There was errors, we have to delete the uploaded files
if($errors)
{
foreach($files as $key => $file)
{
@unlink($file['full_path']);
}
}
elseif(empty($files) AND empty($data['upload_message']))
{
$CI->lang->load('upload');
$data['upload_message'] = ERR_OPEN.$CI->lang->line('upload_no_file_selected').ERR_CLOSE;
$CI->load->vars($data);
}
else
{
return $files;
}
/* -------------------------------
Insert to database */
// problem is here, i need file names to add db.
// if there is already same names file at the folder, it rename file itself. so in such case, I need renamed file name :/
}
}
