how use object in FileElement

[hosseinjarrahi]

i use FileElement to upload a file, but when the file is uploaded, request will return an object as response that has a name and a string as url to show the file, in FileElement we can just set one thing as name and url , is it possible to set name and url diffrent?

So just to make sure I understand it correctly: you have uploaded and persisted a file (stage 3) and the FileElement's value is eg. blue-orange.png or https://domain.com/images/blue-orange.png and instead of blue-orange.png you want to show something like Blue Orange for the file?

[hosseinjarrahi]

for example my response is like this

{
name: 'blueOrange.jpg',
hash: 'Dasd8asd8cNCsajkscas'
}

and url for image view is
http://localhost:9090/images?hash=Dasd8asd8cNCsajkscas

but i have no idea how FileElement can handle it

This response object with name and hash is in uploadTempEndpoint (so when initially uploaded in a single request before submitting the form) or when you want to load the image back to the form?

Thanks for answering, bro. Before submitting the form, when click to FileElement or MultiFileElement, select the file and after uploading, the response back from the server has two key, hash and name. The name is the name of file and with hash we can download the file. i dont know how show the name file with name property and when user click on the button, download The file using hash in this url http://localhost:9090/images?hash=Dasd8asd8cNCsajkscas

I wasn't able to achieve this myself. The issue is that currently you can only use the same filename for rendering preview, displaying name and handling click while being quite limited when it comes to formatting the urls.

I have to figure out a way to restructure the file upload to be able to achieve this. I've created a discussion for hit: #239
