Im trying to create a upload button in react using typescript, this is my code
import React, {useState} from 'react';
function FileUploadPage(){
const [selectedFile, setSelectedFile] = useState();
const [isFilePicked, setIsFilePicked] = useState(false);
const changeHandler = (event) => {
setSelectedFile(event.target.files[0]);
setIsSelected(true);
};
const handleSubmission = () => {
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('File', selectedFile);
fetch(
'https://freeimage.host/api/1/upload?key=<YOUR_API_KEY>',
{
method: 'POST',
body: formData,
}
)
.then((response) => response.json())
.then((result) => {
console.log('Success:', result);
})
.catch((error) => {
console.error('Error:', error);
});
};
};
return(
<div>
<input type="file" name="file" onChange={changeHandler} />
{
isSelected ? (
<div>
<p>Filename: {selectedFile.name}</p>
<p>Filetype: {selectedFile.type}</p>
<p>Size in bytes: {selectedFile.size}</p>
<p>
lastModifiedDate:{' '}
{selectedFile.lastModifiedDate.toLocaleDateString()}
</p>
</div>
) : (
<p>Select a file to show details</p>
)}
<div>
<button onClick={handleSubmission}>Submit</button>
</div>
</div>
) }
I'm getting error on this line "formData.append('File', selectedFile);". As im new to react i have no idea what this error means. This error says "Argument of type 'undefined' is not assignable to parameter of type 'string | Blob'", i have attached the error image, Someone help me out with this error.
