Upload file type restrictions in Smartedit

[michielc]

Hi,

We have some objects with Media attributes, which should be able to contain both videos (.mp4/.webm) and images (.png/.jpeg/.jpg/.webp). When importing media using impex, we can import al of these file extensions and all of these files are correctly displayed.

Another requirement is that these attributes should be modifiable via Smartedit (e.g. a video should be replaceable with another video or an image). Now, uploading .jpg and .png works, but when we try to upload .mp4 (or .webm or ...) in Smartedit, we get the error that the 'Selected file type is invalid'.

I've tried modifying the seFileValidationService.js file of the cmssmartedit extension by adding the required extensions to the ACCEPTED_FILE_TYPES-line (line 31), but this doesn't seem to work, even after an ant clean all + server restart.

Does anyone know how we should modify these file type restrictions?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

We are using OOTB smartedit.
Is it possible to upload zip directly in media section in smartedit? If so, how can it be done?

Thanks

It helped me to add ability to upload GIF files in smartedit:
public VALID_IMAGE_MIME_TYPE_CODES: string[] = [
   'FFD8FFDB',
   'FFD8FFE0',
   'FFD8FFE1',
   '474946383761',
   '474946383961', // gif magic number
   '49492A00',
   '4D4D002A',
   '89504E470D0A1A0A',
   '3C3F786D6C207665', // svg magic number'3C73766720786D6C' // svg magic number];

Hi everyone, i am facing issue(selected file type is invalid) while uploading .svg image from (UPLOAD IMAGE TO LIBRARY) but i am able to add png,jpg images.

Does anyone know how we should modify to achieve the above...

Hi Michiel,

Besides modifying "seFileValidationService.js" you should also modify "seFileMimeTypeService.js" and add the magic number for the file type you would like to accept.

Both these .js files are processed and concatenated into "cmssmarteditContainer.js" which resides in the webroot. So after modifying the "seFileValidationService.js" and "seFileMimeTypeService.js" you will need to have the hybris platform also run the 'grunt build tasks'. To do so you would need to run 'ant npminstall' and after 'ant clean build' that will result in an updated "cmssmarteditContainer.js" file.

It is a kind of dirty trick to achieve this, but it will work. The best approach will be building a customized smartedit editor.

Hi Zafir, It is better to created your own custom isolated scope directory directory which is bind model for file upload depend on on your file upload type as well as use exist rest call media api
