Package Exports

angular-file-model

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (angular-file-model) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

<input type='file' file-model='fileModel'>
<button type='button' ng-click='upload()'>Upload</button>

controller.js:

var DemoCtrl = [

  function ($scope) {
    $scope.upload = function () {
      $scope.fileModel // This is where the file is linked to.
    };
  }
]

Known Issues

Using a the modal controller from angular-ui I can't update the variable assigned to file-model: This is not an issue directly with angular-file-model. It's created because the modal controller uses transclusion. Actually, you can't update any other values directly. My workaround for this has been passing an empty object to the controller's scope and putting the file-model (just like other data from fields from the modal) into that object, so what I pass to file-model is something like: 'data.file' instead and it works. (data being already initialized as {} at least in the controller)
