Dancer::Request::Upload(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Dancer::Request::Upload(3)

Dancer::Request::Upload - class representing file uploads requests

version 1.3513

    # somewhere in your view:
    <form action="/upload" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
      <input type="file" name="filename">
      <input type="submit">
    </form>
   
    # and then in your application handler:
    post '/upload' => sub {
      my $file = request->upload('filename');
      $file->copy_to($upload_dir);  # or whatever you need
    };

This class implements a representation of file uploads for Dancer. These objects are accessible within route handlers via the request->uploads keyword. See Dancer::Request for details.
