Demo Here
To upload a file to a website you need a server listening to request on the end. Jquery can be used to simplify getting the file to the server but once there the server has to accept it and copy it to the hard drive. Think about it like this, it would be a real problem if anyone could post anything to your server and have it be copied to your server. Hope this helps, or at least points you in the right direction.

I am trying to upload a file to GCS using javascript.
I found this answer which shows how to upload and see the progress of that file.
I also followed the official documentation
All of the above worked for me, but now i want to allow anyone who visits my website to upload to the bucket i have. I don't want to authenticate using the button that the documentation shows. I just want anyone to be able to visit the website, upload and see the progress of the upload file.
The main issue i have is that i want users to be able to see the PROGRESS of the upload file. Maybe there is another way.
Thanks
To make it work you need to:
Configure Cross Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)
Generate signed url for file upload. You can check example in python how to do it or example server side app in node.js
Use resumable multiple chunks upload to show upload progress.
I have been searching all over and I can't find a solution, I know it is not possible for a website to automatically upload a file without user interaction, but, is it possible to upload a file without having to manually click on the upload button and search for the file, client side. I am sorry if I'm not clear since I do not have much experience in this field.
This is the page I have tried : http://www.jist.tv/create.php
I basically been trying to make the page know what file i'm trying to upload without using this input window.
This is the script the page uses to upload the file : http://www.jist.tv/vendor/uikit-2.24.3/js/components/upload.min.js
Is there a POST message I can send?
Any help would be great, thanks.
I did some research and i couldn't find any information regarding this,
I know that box content-api call to upload needs to be form-data
is there way to upload file via giving a url of the file?
like for example i want to save this file,
https://www.google.com/images/branding/googlelogo/1x/googlelogo_color_272x92dp.png
without downloading it on to the computer (client side). and than uploading it with api.
It is not currently possible to upload a file with the Box API using a URL to a file.
When calling the Upload File endpoint for the Box API, you have to specify the file's location on your local machine or server.
I'd like to use jQueryFileUpload to upload a file that is not on my computer but rather is at an external website so all I have is its URL, e.g., https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/wkfr8d04dhgbd86/onarborLogo64.png.
I'm at a total loss on how to do this but I think it involves adding the file data programmatically rather than using the traditional <label for='myComputerFiles'>-based selection of files.
If this is correct, what next FileReader()?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
You should do this on the server - it requires user intervention to download it locally, and that just seems hacky and unfriendly.
Reason? You would have to first download the file (which is an indeterminate process), and then upload it to the server. If you pass the URL to the server then it can perform the whole process in 1 action - a download (which is effectively the same as you uploading it). Also, the ability to read local files, which is what FileReader is for, does not mean you should download files to just upload them again. That's bad logic and your users will not appreciate it.
Also, Dropbox Chooser is not meant to be a way to download files. It's meant to be a replacement for downloading file, or uploading them to other servers... ...without having to worry about the complexities of implementing a file browser, authentication, or managing uploads and storage.
Since you're using S3, if there is an API call on S3 that allows you to specify a URL then that would be the most obvious thing to use. If you can't do that then you either need to download the file for the user (onto your server) and then upload the file to S3, or you're back to the original idea of downloading at the client and uploading from there. Either way, the introduction of S3 obviously adds another layer of complication, but I'd initially look at getting a URL from the client and getting that file on my server so I could do anything I wanted after that.
This previous question may be of some help in this area...
How to upload files directly to Amazon S3 from a remote server?
I have a file upload form where the file gets uploaded to an S3 bucket at Amazon. I am using https://bitbucket.org/david/django-storages/wiki/Home for that purpose.
Basic file uploading works fine and does it's job but now I would like to integrate an Ajax file uploader into the form and I settled with "valum's file-uploader", using the following fork: https://github.com/alexkuhl/file-uploader
I also stumbled across the following blogpost detailing how to save a file with that backend: http://kuhlit.blogspot.com/2011/04/ajax-file-uploads-and-csrf-in-django-13.html
My experience with ajax file uploads is limited (I used SWFUpload once but I'd prefer a flashless solution this time around) and from the looks of the blogpost the file gets saved on the servers file system. What I would like to do is integrate the upload script with the s3 backend provided by django-storages. Ideally, no byte from the file gets saved on the webserver but passed through to s3.
Any pointers to built in Django functions, blog posts, general ideas are welcome. Moreover, if anyone has a suggestion for another upload script where I can achieve my goal more easily, feel free to suggest it.
I made it work by configuring the uploader to use the hidden iframe method. Now it works together nicely with django's backend. However, I am missing some convience features like drag&drop now.
