QSTN: Is it possible to validate files from request

[William-Depix]

Is it possible to validate uploaded files? For example, checking how many files are being uploaded in the request, what are their file types and the files' size.

I have some images appended in the form data to pass into the request. Is there any way to validate their amount, file types and file size?

Thank you!

@William-Depix Hello. Thank you for the question.
Сurrently no ( But the idea is great. I'll be very busy for a couple of months and I have no opportunity to implement this sooner. Sorry 😔

You can add functionality if you need it faster. But we need to think about the format.

Got it. Thanks for the info!

@William-Depix, @LostInDarkMath hey! I'm thinking about the format and wanted to know your vision.
So here is an example for multiple uploading:

@app.route('/files', methods=['POST'])
@validate_params(
    FileChain(
        mime_types=['application/pdf', 'image/jpeg'], 
        max_size=1024 * 1024, 
        max_files=3,          
        name_pattern=r'^....$' # optional
    )
)

Validation by file names:

@app.route('/files', methods=['POST'])
@validate_params(
    File(
        mime_type='application/pdf',
        max_size=1024 * 1024,
        name='document',
    ),
    File(
        mime_type='image/jpeg',
        max_size=1024 * 1024,
        name='photo',
    )
)

Any suggestions? Wishes?

I think that the mime_type should be an array because in most cases, multiple mime types are allowed.

@William-Depix published. I'll update docs later. I'm really very busy

This looks exactly what I need! Thanks a lot!
