Template to Display Uploaded Images about django-s3file

[codingjoe]

Hi @pdf9,

Excellent question! As it turns out, this is not possible right now, at least not out of the box. We do not emit a signal, for files that have been uploaded. However, this could be easily implemented around here:

django-s3file/s3file/static/s3file/js/s3file.js

Lines 91 to 96 in b604060

	results.forEach(function (result) {
	var hiddenFileInput = document.createElement('input')
	hiddenFileInput.type = 'hidden'
	hiddenFileInput.name = name
	hiddenFileInput.value = parseURL(result)
	form.appendChild(hiddenFileInput)

All that being said, if you S3 bucket is not public, you will need to make a signing request to your app server. I would recommend this, having your bucket public by default has caused a great many security incidents in the past.

Anyhow, I would be open to add the event, but bear in mind, that this will not fully solve your problem. I believe it might be simpler to just submit the form and display the image in the next step. Another solution would be to show the picture that is being uploaded, while it's being uploaded via JavaScript, see https://stackoverflow.com/a/4459419/649951

I hope this gives you an idea of how to tackle your problem.

If you have any further questions, please let me know. Should you be interested in adding a JS signal for successful uploads, please reopen this issue.

Best,
Joe
