    #mizchi/js_browser/file

    File API for file handling in the browser.

    #Installation

    Add to your moon.mod:

    import {
  "mizchi/js_browser@0.13.0",
}

    ...and to the moon.pkg of the package that uses it:

    import {
  "mizchi/js_browser/file",
}

    #Overview

    Provides bindings for the File and FileReader APIs for reading files selected by users.

    #Usage Example

    fn main {
      // Get file input element
      let doc = @dom.document()
      let input = doc.get_element_by_id("fileInput")

      // Access selected files
      let files = input.files()
      let file = files.item(0)

      // Read file as text
      let reader = @file.FileReader()

      reader.set_onload(fn(event) {
        let result = reader.result()
        @console.log("File content:", result)
      })

      reader.read_as_text(file)

      // Other reading methods:
      // reader.read_as_data_url(file)
      // reader.read_as_array_buffer(file)
    }

    #Available Types

    • File - File object with name, size, type
    • FileReader - Read file contents
    • FileList - List of files from input

    #Reading Methods

    • readAsText() - Read as text string
    • readAsDataURL() - Read as data URL (for images)
    • readAsArrayBuffer() - Read as binary data
