Read Stream while uploading

[Charles]

Hi,

We are implementing a system where a user can upload files over HTTP (using Telerik RadUpload) and the files being stored on a third party system (such as Amazon Cloud). We could simply connect to the service after the file has uploaded and save the file on the cloud, however we dont want the user to have to wait for this to happen.

A more efficient solution would be to transfer the data as the file is being transmitted from their browser.

I have access to the source code for the RadUploadHttpModule, but I am unable to find or gain access to the stream where the file is being appended to.

Thanks

Hi Charles,

Have you tried using the InputStream property of the uploaded file object?
I believe it would help.

Is the InputStream property only available after the whole file has been uploaded?

Thanks

Hello Charles,

Yes. Actually the server-side code of the page is executed after all files have been uploaded.

This is not what we need.

If you read the original message, what I am trying to do is get access to the stream of the file WHILE it is uploading - not after it has been uploaded.

We have the full source code of the upload module, is it accessible from that?

Thanks

Hello Charles,

You can check the ProgressWorkerRequest class form the source code. However have in mind that we don't support any modifications to the source code.

In one of our scenarios we don't want upload the file to a server path but we need to read the data into a datatable with the help of inputstream and the process the data.  Is there a way to read the data from InputStream into a datatable.

Hi Neethu,

Are you looking for a way to upload files to Amazon or Azure? If so then take a look at the new RadCloudUpload control. It is designed to upload files to Amazon S3, Azure Blob Storage and Everlive - Telerik's Cloud Service Platform.
