I have a custom module to create galleries using PLupload to upload multiple files. These files have a ".tmp" extension in my "/tmp" folder.

Here is an extract of my $form_state['values']:

[0] => Array( [tmppath] => temporary://p17g31n52jo4fvj31ds01efd189b4.tmp [tmpname] => p17g31n52jo4fvj31ds01efd189b4.tmp [name] => photo_1.jpg [status] => done )

How do I save the files in my public folder with the good extension (like .jpg)? I've tried using file_save_upload() or file_copy() but without success.

Can anyone help me?

I'm on a local server (wamp) as administrator with all permissions. The folders (tmp and site/default) are writable.

I copy here some extracts of my code.

hook_form() :

$form['create']['photos'] = array( '#type' => 'plupload', '#title' => 'Photos', '#upload_validators' => array( 'file_validate_extensions' => array('jpg jpeg gif png'), ), '#plupload_settings' => array( 'runtimes' => 'html5', 'chunk_size' => '1mb', ), );

hook_form_validate() :

$file = file_save_upload('photos', array( 'file_validate_is_image' => array(), 'file_validate_extensions' => array('png gif jpg jpeg'), )); if ($file) { if ($file = file_move($file, 'public://')) { $form_state['storage']['file'] = $file; } else { form_set_error('file', t('Failed to write the uploaded file the site\'s file folder.')); } } else { form_set_error('file', t('No file was uploaded.')); }

It returns "No file was uploaded." I don't understand what I should put as first arguments to the file_save_upload function.

  • File uploading can depend heavily on system information. Can you add a description of the server, your file paths, permissions etc? Also, you should describe the error output you get; there are lots of (wrong) ways to use file_save_upload() and file_copy(). Commented Jan 4, 2013 at 16:48

I finally manage to do what I want...

I didn't understand how to use file_copy ans its $destination argument. We can put a file path, not only a folder path. So, I can save my file.jpg correctly.

My code :

$values = $form_state['values']['create']; $photos_count = count($values['photos']); for ($i = 0; $i < $photos_count; $i++) { $path = $values['photos'][$i]['tmppath']; $name = $values['photos'][$i]['name']; // set file datas as an object to pass it in file_copy() $file = (object)array( 'uid' => 0, 'uri' => $path, 'filemime' => file_get_mimetype($path), 'status' => 1 ); // copy the file in the correct folder if ($file = file_copy($file, $filepath . '/' . $name)) { drupal_set_message('Success'); } else { drupal_set_message('Error', 'error'); } // set the field datas for saving the node with an array $node->field_album_photos[$node->language][$i] = (array)$file; }

Have a nice day !
