Uploading file from AIR application
Development and Programming
In a current project, we’re using EE as a backend for different AIR applications, and one of these applications are going to upload files and create entries in EE.
Today I created some prototype templates & we tried to do a test, but the programmer told me that he needs to base64-encode the file to be able to upload it.
I’m using SafeCracker + SafeCracker File at the moment. Is there a way to do this, or is there any hooks that can be used to add a parameter?
Does the upload_file function in the Filemanager library have this ability already?

Hi, Fred. Let me move this over to the Development and Programming forum.
Hi Fred,
That’s not something provided with the stock SafeCracker File field, but since that’s a fieldtype and not written into the core, you could use it as a base and extend that fieldtype to include whatever encoding you need to. Does that work for you?
