Upload Music files #642

Open rajatdhariwal opened 4 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. One of my students has created this Music Player app (https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/5ee9e9165aa9fb60300ddb49). He would like to add a feature where users can upload songs from their phones in this app. I have been looking for quite some time and it doesnt look possible.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like for the users of my Thunkable music player app to be able to upload music files from their phone.

Describe alternatives you've considered We tried to upload music files stored in a Firebase DB but Thunkable doesnt seem to provide access to Firebase Storage , only to Database values which are text. Even MediaDB only supports upload of images. Given Cloudinary supports audio files, it would be great to have support for the same, given how popular the Music Player apps in Thunkable are. Which platform are you asking for? Thunkable Classic (app.thunkable.com) or Thunkable ✕ (x.thunkable.com)

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

You can make such a function using JavaScript

Start solving the problem with the scrFileViewer example in the project https://x.thunkable.com/projects/5d70f93f8a62b4079eedaff2/project/properties/designer

Hey @rajatdhariwal,

I think that a file picker component has been requested in the Community already.

There is also a more recent request in Github #842

I'll check on the status of these and get back to you.

@rajatdhariwal in addition to Alex's example above, there's also something similar in the Community here: https://community.thunkable.com/t/integrating-cloudinary-file-picker-widget-for-uploading-pdf-files-yaayyyy/814551?u=domhnallohanlon
