Image drag and drop in AEM 6.4 multifield component

Hello,

I am having trouble getting Image drag and drop working in a multi-field component in AEM 6.4. I am using sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/form/fileupload".

                                        <bgimg

                                            jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"

                                            sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/form/fileupload"

                                            allowUpload="{Boolean}false"

                                            autoStart="{Boolean}false"

                                            class="cq-droptarget"

                                            fieldDescription="Select an image as background for the panel. Image height: 240px (min), 240px (max)."

                                            fieldLabel="Background Image"

                                            fileNameParameter="./hbgfileName"

                                            fileReferenceParameter="./hbgfileReference"

                                            mimeTypes="[image]"

                                            multiple="{Boolean}false"

                                            name="./file"

                                            required="{Boolean}true"

                                            title="Upload Image Asset"

                                            uploadUrl="${suffix.path}"

                                            useHTML5="{Boolean}true"/>

Based on suggestions I tried cq/gui/components/authoring/dialog/fileupload but neither of them work.

In neither of the cases do I see an image file drag and drop option.

Has anyone go this working successfully? Help will be appreciated,.

Did you include cq:dropTargets node definition where you allow the mimetypes to be dropped?

Follow the dialog definition of /apps/core/wcm/components/image/v2/image and fix your code accordingly -

/apps/core/wcm/components/image/v2/image/cq:editConfig/cq:dropTargets

Could you share the error details/screenshot/dialog.xml?

If it shows as disabled in the multifield then the most likely, the issue is with coral2-coral3 conflicts on the page.

Just delete uploadUrl property and test.

uploadUrl="${suffix.path}"

Works fine for me on 6.4.3 and core components 2.2.2 If you require, I can share a video of same.

uploadUrlstringel

The URL to upload the file. This is only required when autoStart is true.

As mentioned earlier, if the dialog doesn't close then it's most likely a js conflict on the page. Please try the same dialog in a blank project/age and see if it works

If you are have sling:resourceSuperType property configured on the component, then it could be reason of missing inherited properties from  parent component.

you may try alternate resourceTypes to find the root cause -

Coral2 - granite/ui/components/foundation/form/fileupload

Coral3 -  cq/gui/components/authoring/dialog/fileupload or granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/fileupload

Hi,

Now I am able to click ok and save the property in jcr:content. But now the issue is when I open the same dailog again on page the image is not appearing in the dailog .

What could be the reason behind this ?

Lost the image in the dailog

Thank you as always

this is one of sample implementations, compare your code against it -

<file
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="cq/gui/components/authoring/dialog/fileupload"
   autoStart="{Boolean}false"
   class="cq-droptarget"
   fieldLabel="Image asset"
   fileNameParameter="./fileName"
   fileReferenceParameter="./fileReference"
   mimeTypes="[image/gif,image/jpeg,image/png,image/webp,image/tiff,image/svg+xml]"
   multiple="{Boolean}false"
   name="./file"
   title="Upload Image Asset"
   uploadUrl="${suffix.path}"
   useHTML5="{Boolean}true"/>

alternatively, you could use granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/fileupload, if applicable
