Add a widget for File Uploads

[athomerson]

I've created a widget for file uploads that I would like to contribute. It is based on the Blueimp JQuery library. I just submitted a pull request on plone.app.widgets as well. The tests are written. I haven't written all the documentation yet.

Thanks! Very nice. We already have an upload pattern unfortunately and decided against using the Bluimp implementation(is what is also used in wildcard.foldercontents 1.x).

Would you be interested in contributing to the existing pattern and making it better?

Hi Nathan,
I saw the upload widget but I thought it was just for folder contents. Is
that the one you mean? The one I wrote is for NamedFiles but I would be
happy to contribute to the existing pattern. Why did you decide against
using the Blueimp library? I would also be happy to contribute to any other
widgets. Is there a task list somewhere?

Thanks,
Allen

blueimp had a lot of dependencies.

It'd be great to make the current upload widget work with NamedFiles. It's not meant to only be for folder contents.

Oh, there is plenty to do, including bug squashing. Check out plone/Products.CMFPlone#184 in the theming and javascript section :)

Yeah it does have a lot of dependencies. The one that got me was a
dependency on jquery.ui even though I wasn't using the ui version.
I'll have a look at the current upload widget and see if I can figure out
how to get it to work with NamedFiles.
