Creating custom root folder based on RootAliasName

[Amjad Khan]

I am trying to set root file folder for based on the RootAliasName of the SfFileManager component. I have the following code:

<SfFileManager TValue="FileManagerDirectoryContent" RootAliasName="@rootfolder">

    <FileManagerAjaxSettings Url="/api/FileManager/FileOperations"

                             DownloadUrl="/api/FileManager/Download"

                             UploadUrl="/api/FileManager/Upload"

                             GetImageUrl="/api/FileManager/GetImage">

        

    </FileManagerAjaxSettings>

</SfFileManager>

On the controller side, I have this code (Syncfusion default code):

public FileManagerController(IHostingEnvironment hostingEnvironment)

        {

            

            this.basePath = hostingEnvironment.ContentRootPath;

            this.operation = new PhysicalFileProvider();

            this.operation.RootFolder(this.basePath + "\\wwwroot\\Files"); // Data\\Files denotes in which files and folders are available.

        }

My question is where do I set the RootAliasName on the controller side?

Hi Amjad,  

 

Thanks for your patience.  

  

We are glad to announce that our patch release (V18.4.34) is rolled out successfully. In this release, we have included feature for “passing additional data in onSend event for FileManager component”. To access this feature, we suggest you to update the package to the latest version (V18.4.34).  

  

To achieve your requirement, you need to add the data with CustomData argument in OnSend event.  

  

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.FileManager;  

@using Newtonsoft.Json    

<div class="control-section">  

    <SfFileManager TValue="FileManagerDirectoryContent">  

      <FileManagerEvents TValue="FileManagerDirectoryContent" OnSend="send"></FileManagerEvents>  

        <FileManagerAjaxSettings Url="/api/Home/FileOperations"  

                                 UploadUrl="/api/Home/Upload"  

                                 DownloadUrl="/api/Home/Download"  

                                 GetImageUrl="/api/Home/GetImage">  

        </FileManagerAjaxSettings>  

    </SfFileManager>  

</div>  

@code{  

    public void send(Syncfusion.Blazor.FileManager.BeforeSendEventArgs args)  

    {  

      Dictionary<string, object> data = new Dictionary<string, object>();  

      data.Add("FilePath", "Syncfusion");  

      args.CustomData = data;  

    }  

}  

  

Controller:  

  

  public class FileManagerDirectoryContent1  

  {  

    public Dictionary<string, object> CustomData { get; set; }  

    public bool HasChild { get; set; }  

    public DateTime DateCreated { get; set; }  

    public DateTime DateModified { get; set; }  

    public string PreviousName { get; set; }  

  }  

[Route("FileOperations")]  

    public object FileOperations([FromBody] FileManagerDirectoryContent1 args)  

    {  

      string filepath = args.CustomData["FilePath"].ToString();     

}
