How FileReader implements a file reader
This time I will show you how FileReader implements a file reader. What are the precautions for FileReader to implement a file reader. The following is a practical case, let's take a look.
Sometimes we need to read data from a file. Previously, you would need to send it to the server and then return the required data. The thing is, now we can also access files directly in the browser using the FileReader API.
If we just want to read a text file to do something inconsequential on the UI level, then there is no need to send the file to the server. The following example reads relevant data from a file and populates it into a textarea.
FileReader API
FileReader API provides a good interface to read data in different ways using Text or Blob object types .
FileReader instances have a readAsText method that we can use to read a file as text:
const reader = new FileReader(); reader.readAsText(file);
Since the FileReader API is asynchronous, it exposes some of our Events that can be used to obtain its status. In particular, when reading a file, we need the onload event to access the data:
const reader = new FileReader(); reader.onload = e => console.log(e.target.result); reader.readAsText(file);
As you can see, the text data can be accessed through e.target.result.
So far, browser support is as follows:
File Reader Component
The previous code has read a file, but we still have to give it a file object. To do this, we must use the <input type="file">
HTML tag, which will trigger a change event and then access the file through e.target.files.
Let's create a FileReader component and put it all together:
<template id="fileReader"> <label class="text-reader"> <input type="file" @change="loadTextFromFile" /> </label> </template> Vue.component('file-reader',{ template: '#fileReader', methods: { loadTextFromFile: function (e) { const file = e.target.files[0] const reader = new FileReader() reader.onload = e => this.$emit('load', e.target.result) reader.readAsText(file) } } })
The component listens to the load event so that the parent component can process the data.
Use components
Mount the newly created file-reader component under the p element of #app to demonstrate our component:
<p id="app"> <textarea rows="10" v-model="text"></textarea> <file-reader @load="text = $event"></file-reader> </p> let app = new Vue({ el: '#app', data () { return { text: '' } } })
We need to add a text attribute in data and bind it to textarea
using v-model
. Finally, we will capture the @load event and set the text property to a valid load event
via $event.
The effect you see at this time is as follows:
#In fact, the function is already available now, operate it in your browser as shown below, You can see the effect:
Special reminder: I have tried several file formats, and the loading of image, PDF and other file formats will be garbled, but the loading For files such as .md or .doc, the corresponding content can be displayed normally in the textarea.
Add style
If you read this far, you should see the effect. Looks ugly (in fact has no styling effect whatsoever). Next add some styling to make it look nice.
In each browser, the rendering effect of <input type="file">
is different. If we want the same rendering effect, we need to have a custom style. Then you can hide the input and use
To hide the input, you can use opacity:0 or use display:block, visibility:hidden to make it accessible. We also need to use the position and z-index attributes to place it behind the label:
<template id="fileReader"> <label class="file-reader"> Read File <input type="file" @change="loadTextFromFile" /> </label> </template> .file-reader { position: relative; overflow: hidden; display: inline-block; border: 2px solid black; border-radius: 5px; padding: 8px 12px; cursor: pointer; input { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; z-index: -1; opacity: 0; } }
Of course, in order to look better, you can also add some styles to other elements. The final effect you see is as follows:

In this article, we will introduce how to solve the problem of "Ready to delete" prompt when deleting files or folders in Windows system. This prompt means that the system is performing some background operations, such as checking file permissions, verifying whether the file is occupied by other programs, calculating the size of the item to be deleted, etc. We will provide you with some workarounds to ensure that you can successfully delete your files without waiting too long. Why does Windows take so long to delete files? The time it takes Windows to prepare a file for deletion is affected by a variety of factors, including file size, storage device speed, and background processes. A long or stuck "Preparing to delete" prompt may indicate insufficient system resources, disk errors, or file system issues. exist

Tmp format files are a temporary file format usually generated by a computer system or program during execution. The purpose of these files is to store temporary data to help the program run properly or improve performance. Once the program execution is completed or the computer is restarted, these tmp files are often no longer necessary. Therefore, for Tmp format files, they are essentially deletable. Moreover, deleting these tmp files can free up hard disk space and ensure the normal operation of the computer. However, before deleting Tmp format files, we need to

The gho file is a GhostImage image file, which is usually used to back up the entire hard disk or partition data into a file.

A file path is a string used by the operating system to identify and locate a file or folder. In file paths, there are two common symbols separating paths, namely forward slash (/) and backslash (). These two symbols have different uses and meanings in different operating systems. The forward slash (/) is a commonly used path separator in Unix and Linux systems. On these systems, file paths start from the root directory (/) and are separated by forward slashes between each directory. For example, the path /home/user/Docume
