File Upload

There are many situations where you might need to upload local files to your edge when using Olares. The Olares Application Runtime (TAPR) provides a common file-upload component to simplify this process in app development. Moreover, this file-upload component features resumable upload.

How to install

To use this feature, simply add the following configuration to the OlaresManifest.yaml file in the application chart.

yaml
upload:
  fileType:
    - pdf
  dest: /appdata
  limitedSize: 3729747942

Frontend API

NOTE

The limit for a single upload is 10MB. If the file is larger than 10MB, you must upload using the resumable upload API.
