Golang : Get uploaded file name or access uploaded files
A regular community member of Golang Facebook group asked a question recently on how to capture the uploaded filename in a single method. Below is the quick way of getting the filename:
UPDATE:
You can use this method as well to access uploaded files information. Such as the MIME or metadata information.
func uploadHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
file, header, err := r.FormFile("file") // the input file by form
defer file.Close()
if err != nil {
fmt.Fprintln(w, err)
return
}
filename := header.Filename // get the filename
fmt.Fprintf(w,"Filename is" + filename + "\n")
}
