Multiple File Types

[SJente]

Hello Miquel,

I'm working on an application where i want to allow different kind of file types as described in #27.

I have read that you maybe were going to implement this feature in the future. I was wondering if this possible feature was still on your to-do list because i could really use it.

Thanks for your great work on this, really love how compact and smooth it works.

Thanks in advance,
SJente

Hi. Thank you for your suggestion, this was already been requested in #27 as you've correctly mentioned and it's being worked on - actually it's already done on iOS and, at the time of this answer, it's being implemented on Android as well.

This will be deployed along with some other requested improvements in the 1.3.0 probably by the end of the week.

Thank you for your patience.

Great to hear @miguelpruivo, i'm looking forward to using this plugin in my application!

Version 1.3.0 was deployed on dart pub and adds this, alongside with other requested features and bug fixes. See changelog.

Make sure you clean and change your pubspec to the latest version: file_picker: ^1.3.0

Thank you for your feedback.

@SJente as of now, with version 1.6.0 released just now you can start filtering multiple extensions at once. There are breaking changes, so have in mind that from now on you'll need to provide an List of file types instead of a single one with FileType.custom.

Example:

 List<File> files = await FilePicker.getMultiFile(
          type: FileType.custom,
          allowedExtensions: ['jpg', 'pdf', 'doc'],
        );

Thank you.
