Attach files to a file input

Source: R/actions.R
pz_set_files.Rd

Auto-waits for a match, then sets the input's files to the given local files through the browser's own file-input channel, so the input's FileList holds the real names, sizes, and contents, and change fires exactly as if the files had been picked in a dialog.

Usage

pz_set_files(ctx, files, ..., target = NULL)

Arguments

ctx

A paparazzi context.

files

A character vector of paths to existing local files.

...

Checked empty; reserved for future use.

target

A CSS selector string, a pz_loc() spec, or a list of specs (a union matching any of them). NULL uses the current scope; at the root context a target is required.

Value

ctx, invisibly.
