Ink file picker callback called too early. How to detect when the file is
available?
When uploading a file using filepicker.io, the filepicker.pick success
callback is getting called before the file is actually available. Here's
the code:
filepicker.pick({
mimetypes: ['image/*'],
container: 'modal',
services:['COMPUTER', 'FACEBOOK', 'INSTAGRAM', 'WEBCAM']
},
function(inkBlob){
$('img.foo').attr('src', inkBlob.url);
},
function(FPError){
console.log(FPError.toString());
});
I get a url in the inkBlob that comes in the callback, but sometimes if I
insert that url into the dom (as above), I get a 404. Other times it
works. I'm looking for a reliable way to know when I can use the file
returned by filepicker. I figured the success callback was it, but there
seems to be this race condition.
I realize I could wrap the success callback in a setTimeout, but that
seems messy, and I'd like to not keep the user waiting if the file is
actually available.
