The getAsFileSystemHandle()
method of the DataTransferItem
interface returns a Promise
that fulfills with a FileSystemFileHandle
if the dragged item is a file, or fulfills with a FileSystemDirectoryHandle
if the dragged item is a directory.
None.
Return valueA Promise
.
If the item's kind
property is "file"
, and this item is accessed in the dragstart
or drop
event handlers, then the returned promise is fulfilled with a FileSystemFileHandle
if the dragged item is a file or a FileSystemDirectoryHandle
if the dragged item is a directory.
Otherwise, the promise fulfills with null
.
None.
ExamplesThis example uses the getAsFileSystemHandle()
method to return file handles for dropped items.
Note: Because getAsFileSystemHandle()
can only retrieve the entry handle in the same tick as the drop
event handler, there must be no await
before it. This is why we synchronously invoke getAsFileSystemHandle()
for all items first, and then wait for their results concurrently.
elem.addEventListener("dragover", (e) => {
// Prevent navigation.
e.preventDefault();
});
elem.addEventListener("drop", async (e) => {
// Prevent navigation.
e.preventDefault();
const handlesPromises = [...e.dataTransfer.items]
// kind will be 'file' for file/directory entries.
.filter((x) => x.kind === "file")
.map((x) => x.getAsFileSystemHandle());
const handles = await Promise.all(handlesPromises);
// Process all of the items.
for (const handle of handles) {
if (handle.kind === "file") {
// run code for if handle is a file
} else if (handle.kind === "directory") {
// run code for is handle is a directory
}
}
});
