I'm running application on my website and for some articles and reviews im using TinyMCE editor. Works perfectly, storing to DB also works. But i have a need to add local images to articles and upon submitting a form i want to save them to dynamic location on server (based from where i save). Can i even do this using expressJS and tinyMce editor?
I've tried setting needed stuff in tinymce.init method, I even have upload section when selecting Image in TinyMce UI, but as soon as i select image, i'm getting HTTP error 404. What i did to solve this, is to create POST route in express JS where i suppose i end up in, but i have no idea what i'm doing.
This is my TinyMCE init:
tinymce.init({
selector: '#tinySelector',
plugins: 'advlist autolink link code image lists charmap print preview textcolor media',
toolbar: 'undo redo | image code',
relative_urls: true,
document_base_url: 'http://www.example.com/',
images_upload_url: '/upload.php',
images_upload_hand: function (blobInfo, success, failure) {
var xhr, formData;
xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.withCredentials = false;
xhr.open('POST', '/upload.php');
xhr.onload = function () {
var json;
if (xhr.status != 200) {
failure('HTTP Error: ' + xhr.status);
return;
}
json = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
if (!json || typeof json.location != 'string') {
failure('Invalid JSON: ' + xhr.responseText);
return;
}
success(json.location);
};
formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', blobInfo.blob(), blobInfo.filename());
xhr.send(formData);
}
});
Express route:
router.post('/upload.php', ensureAuthenticated, (req, res) => {
console.log('testis');
});
Php file:
<?php
/***************************************************
* Only these origins are allowed to upload images *
***************************************************/
$accepted_origins = array("http://localhost", "http://192.168.1.1", "http://example.com");
/*********************************************
* Change this line to set the upload folder *
*********************************************/
$imageFolder = "/public/tinyImages/";
reset ($_FILES);
$temp = current($_FILES);
if (is_uploaded_file($temp['tmp_name'])){
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'])) {
// same-origin requests won't set an origin. If the origin is set, it must be valid.
if (in_array($_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'], $accepted_origins)) {
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: ' . $_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN']);
} else {
header("HTTP/1.1 403 Origin Denied");
return;
}
}
/*
If your script needs to receive cookies, set images_upload_credentials : true in
the configuration and enable the following two headers.
*/
// header('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true');
// header('P3P: CP="There is no P3P policy."');
// Sanitize input
if (preg_match("/([^\w\s\d\-_~,;:\[\]\(\).])|([\.]{2,})/", $temp['name'])) {
header("HTTP/1.1 400 Invalid file name.");
return;
}
// Verify extension
if (!in_array(strtolower(pathinfo($temp['name'], PATHINFO_EXTENSION)), array("gif", "jpg", "png"))) {
header("HTTP/1.1 400 Invalid extension.");
return;
}
// Accept upload if there was no origin, or if it is an accepted origin
$filetowrite = $imageFolder . $temp['name'];
move_uploaded_file($temp['tmp_name'], $filetowrite);
// Respond to the successful upload with JSON.
// Use a location key to specify the path to the saved image resource.
// { location : '/your/uploaded/image/file'}
echo json_encode(array('location' => $filetowrite));
} else {
// Notify editor that the upload failed
header("HTTP/1.1 500 Server Error");
}
?>
I expect to select a file, see it in tinyMce editor, upon submitting saving image for start to some predefined path.
