Feature request: make requestFormDataBody support requestBody types about adonis-autoswagger HOT 9 CLOSED

Fixed in 3.11.0

// example usage
* @requestFormDataBody <User>.exclude(id).append("picture":{"type":"string","format":"binary"})

from adonis-autoswagger.

There is already a format decorator for the model field

export default class User extends BaseModel {
  @column()
  // @format(binary)
  declare file: string
}

from adonis-autoswagger.

My model does not have a property for that

@column()
declare imageUrl: string

the endpoint request takes a "file" property, not imageUrl that is a file

from adonis-autoswagger.

based on your example, I'd assume your model has other properties too. i.e. name, email, etc... so you'd need to link that file to some property, wouldn't you?

in other words, how do you expect to handle the submitted formdata otherwise?

from adonis-autoswagger.

Yes, I have multiple properties

In my particular case, I take the file from the "file" property on the request, alongside other Model properties.

I upload the file and populate Model.imageUrl with the uploaded file's path, then save

Well, there you have your answer. then just add a "virtual" field file to your model... doesn't have to be mapped to a column.

from adonis-autoswagger.

yes, but then I would have to exclude it from everywhere I have the Model referenced, right?

from adonis-autoswagger.

yes! 😅

out of curiosity, did you try the append() notation? does it work on formdata?

from adonis-autoswagger.

append() does not work and neither does exclude()

it just displays the whole model inside
