=head1 NAME
CGI::Application::Plugin::AJAXUpload - Run mode to handle a file upload and return a JSON response
=head1 VERSION
This document describes CGI::Application::Plugin::AJAXUpload version 0.0.3
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use MyWebApp;
use CGI::Application::Plugin::JSON qw(to_json);
use CGI::Application::Plugin::AJAXUpload;
sub setup {
my $c = shift;
$c->ajax_upload_httpdocs('/var/www/vhosts/mywebapp/httpdocs');
$c->ajax_upload_setup(
run_mode=>'file_upload',
upload_subdir=>'/img/uploads',
);
return;
}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module provides a customisable run mode that handles a file upload
and responds with a JSON message like the following:
{status: 'UPLOADED', image_url: '/img/uploads/666.png'}
or on failure
{status: 'The image was too big.'}
This is specifically intended to provide a L<CGI::Application> based back
end for L<AllMyBrain.com|http://allmybrain.com>'s
L<image upload extension|http://allmybrain.com/2007/10/16/an-image-upload-extension-for-yui-rich-text-editor> to the
L<YUI rich text editor|http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/editor>. However as far as
I can see it could be used as a back end for any L<CGI::Application> website that uploads files behind the scenes using AJAX. In any case this module does NOT
provide any of that client side code and you must also map the run mode onto the URL used by client-side code.
That said a working example is provided which could form the basis of
a rich text editor.
=head1 INTERFACE
=head2 ajax_upload_httpdocs
The module needs to know the document root because it will need to
to copy the file to a sub-directory of the document root,
and it will need to pass that sub-directory back to the client as part
of the URL. If passed a value it will store that as the document root.
If not passed a value it will return the document root.
=head2 ajax_upload_setup
This method sets up a run mode to handle a file upload
and return a JSON message providing status. It takes a number of named
parameters:
=over
=item upload_subdir
This is the sub-directory of I<httpdocs_dir> where the files will actually
be written to. It must be writeable. It defaults to '/img/uploads'.
=item dfv_profile
This is a L<Data::FormValidator> profile. The hash array that is validated
consists of the fields described below. A very basic profile is provided by
default.
=over 4
=item I<value> This is contains the actual data contained in the upload. It will
be untainted. One can of course apply filters that resize the image (assuming
it is an image) or scrub the HTML (if that is appropriate).
=item I<file_name> This is the filename given by the browser. By default it will
be required to be no more than 30 alphanumeric, hyphen or full stop,
underscore characters; it will be untainted and passed through unmodified. One
could however specify a filter that completely ignores the filename, generates
a safe one and does other housekeeping.
=item I<mime_type> This is the file extension passed by the browser.
=item I<data_size> By default this is required to be less than 512K.
=back
Note that this module's handling of file upload and data validation is
somewhat different from that expected by
L<Data::FormValidator::Constraints::Upload> and
L<Data::FormValidator::Filters::Image>. Those modules work with file handles.
The L<Data::FormValidator> profiles required by this module are expected
to work with the data and meta data.
=item run_mode
This is the name of the run mode that will handle this upload. It defaults to
I<ajax_upload_rm>.
=back
=head2 ajax_upload_default_profile
This returns a hash reference to the default L<Data::FormValidator>
profile. It can be called as a class method.
=head2 _ajax_upload_rm
This private method forms the implementation of the run mode. It requires a
I<file> CGI query parameter that provides the file data. Optionally it also
takes a I<validate> parameter that will make other more paranoid checks.
These checks are only optional because if the system is set up correctly
they should never fail.
It takes the following actions:
=over
=item --
It will get the filename and data associated with the upload and
pass the data through the L<Data::FormValidator> if a profile is
supplied.
=item --
If it fails the L<Data::FormValidator> test a failed message will be passed
back to the caller.
=item --
If the I<validate> parameter is set the setup will check. If there
is a problem a status message will be passed back to the user.
=item --
The data will then be copied to the given file, its path being the
combination of the I<httpdocs_dir> parameter, the
I<upload_subdir> and the generated file name.
=item -
The successful JSON message will be passed back to the client.
=back
=head1 DIAGNOSTICS
Most error messages will be passed back to the client as a JSON
message, though in a sanitised form. One error 'Internal Error' is
fairly generic and so the underlying error message is written to standard
error.
=head1 CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT
CGI::Application::Plugin::AJAXUpload requires no configuration files or
environment variables. However the client side code, the URL to run mode
dispatching and the general web server setup is not supplied.
=head1 DEPENDENCIES
This is using the C<to_json> method from L<CGI::Application::Plugin::JSON>.
As such that module needs to be exported before this module. Or of course you
could just define your own.
=head1 BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
Please report any bugs or feature requests to
C<bug-cgi-application-plugin-ajaxupload@rt.cpan.org>, or through the web interface at
L<http://rt.cpan.org>.
One really odd thing is that the content header of the AJAX reply cannot
be 'application/json' as one would expect. This module sets it to
'text/javascript' which works. There is a very short discussion on the
L<YUI forum|http://yuilibrary.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=4743&p=16459&hilit=POST+connection#p16459>.
