Issue with accept user input.

[dmytrodemchenko]

It allows to put any type of files and it seems that it doesn't work properly.

Also, when I use image/* pattern - it shows all visible files in a folder instead of https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_input_accept

<file-upload ngModel accept="file_extension|audio/*|video/*|image/*|media_type" name="files"></file-upload>

Why you didn't bind user inputs with an HTML template?

[pIvan]

It is same as file limitation, validator should only validate values and
prepare error objects, you can use them to show user which files are allowed

[dmytrodemchenko]

Probably, you are not right.
Have you seen the example https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_input_accept ?

Accept uses for avoiding unnecessary files for uploading, also it helps to user pick up the right format file from the bunch of files - and it works properly in an example above.

You're right. Thank's @dmytrodemchenko beacuse you have noticed it.
Should be implemented in the next few days

[dmytrodemchenko]

I do not use accept attr as a validator - the main idea to clean a folder from unnecessary files as it provided by official docs.

Everything that you need to do:

 <input #inputRef type="file" **[accept]='acceptInput'** class="files-input" tabindex="-1" multiple (change)="onInputChange($event)">

Please let me know what do you think about this?

[dmytrodemchenko]

@pIvan thank you a lot for your collaboration.

I'll be looking forward to a new release.

[pIvan]

Support for native accept attribute was added.

It is possible to use it as attribute on <file-upload accept="..."> || <file-upload [accept]="...">
or if you use FileUploadControl as FileUploadControl.acceptFiles(...string).

[pIvan]

I guess we can close this.

@pIvan thank you a lot for that!
