FileUpload with only images & file extension


mierlp

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Within my application i registrate employees, every employee has a unique

nummer (something like 05432467). The employee needs to upload a copy (scan/image)

from his ID card.

 

The FileUpload is not the problem but i would like to upload only images so the

employ may only see/filter image files.

 

Because a scan can have any name i also would like to change the name when

i upload it. So the images gets the name of the employee nummber, something

like 05432467.jpg. To do this i need to extract thee extension because a

image can be a .jpg, gif, tif etc.

 

- How to create a filter when the user selects a file for thee upload

- How to retrieve the extension from the uploaded file

 

Regards Peter

This may be useful ?

Once you have the file on the server you can fairly easily check if the file header looks appropriate (PNG/BMP/JPG).

e.g

 

function IsJpegFile(const FileName: string): Boolean;
const
 RightBuf: array[0..3] of Byte = ($FF, $D8, $FF, $D9);
var
 Buf: array[0..3] of Byte;
begin
 FillChar(Buf, 4, 0);
 with TFileStream.Create(FileName, 0) do
 begin
   Position := 0;
   ReadBuffer(Buf[0], 2);
   Position := Size - 2;
   ReadBuffer(Buf[2], 2);
   Free;
 end;
 Result := CompareMem(@RightBuf[0], @Buf[0], 4);
end;

function IsBmpFile(const FileName: string): Boolean;
const
 RightBuf: array[0..1] of Byte = ($42, $4D);
var
 Buf: array[0..1] of Byte;
begin
 FillChar(Buf, 2, 0);
 with TFileStream.Create(FileName, 0) do
 begin
   Position := 0;
   ReadBuffer(Buf[0], 2);
   Free;
 end;
 Result := CompareMem(@RightBuf[0], @Buf[0], 2);
end;

function IsPngFile(const FileName: string): Boolean;
const
 RightBuf: array[0..7] of Byte = ($89, $50 ,$4e, $47, $0d, $0a, $1a ,$0a);
var
 Buf: array[0..7] of Byte;
begin
 FillChar(Buf, 8, 0);
 with TFileStream.Create(FileName, 0) do
 begin
   Position := 0;
   ReadBuffer(Buf[0], 7);
   Free;
 end;
 Result := CompareMem(@RightBuf[0], @Buf[0], 7);
end;

I'm currently doing something a bit similar and have been looking at some automatic face detection or recognition as an attempt to give some probability that the uploaded file does actually contain a useful image.

The larger commercial SDKs are a bit expensive.

These guys might be useful http://face-detection-recognition.com/ - anyone know how to write an interface to the C++ dll they have ?

 

 

Cheers

As far as I know it is not possible.

 

 

 

 

See our Upload demo.

 

there is a "filter"-property in the UniGUI file upload components, but it does seem to have no effect on filtering file extensions for uploading. Are there any news how to set an  extension filter with the standard UniGUI file upload component?

 

Best Regards

I have two frame with grid and dragdrop files from desctop

 

ajax

 


 

In event onload of dragdrop html5 exaple you have file data  and can use library for image detection. You can more image handling fore eaple image shadowing

Javascript librarys  for image type detection exists in sourceforge.ned and another places

 

 

http://www.pixastic.com/lib/

 

 

Exist FaceRecognition Delphi libraries for example
