🎨 UI Features

Upload Button: Click the upload icon in the files bar to select and upload files
Progress Badge: Shows active upload count when uploads are in progress
Progress Dialog: Click the badge to view detailed progress of all uploads
Real-time Updates: Progress bars and percentages update in real-time
Cancellation: Cancel individual uploads with the X button
Status Icons: Visual indicators for pending, uploading, completed, failed, and cancelled states
Public Shared Folder Screen: View files in publicly shared folders via link prefix
Consistent UI: Reuses FileTile component for uniform file display across the app
Error Handling: Shows clear error messages if link is invalid or expired

🔧 Technical Implementation

FileUploadController:

• Manages upload queue with multiple concurrent uploads
• Tracks progress, status, and errors for each file
• Supports cancellation via Dio CancelToken
• Notifies UI of state changes via ChangeNotifier
• Automatically refreshes file list after successful uploads

FileUploadRoute (Authenticated):

• Handles multipart/form-data POST requests at /upload
• Validates authentication using Serverpod auth
• Proper folder access validation matching files_endpoint
• Supports uploads to authenticated user's accessible folders
• Creates directories recursively if needed
• Returns UploadResult model for type-safe response

PublicUploadRoute (Public Links):

• Handles multipart/form-data POST requests at /public-upload
• No authentication required - uses link prefix validation
• Validates canUpload flag and link expiration
• Only works for folders (directories)
• Creates files in the shared folder directory
• Returns UploadResult model for type-safe response

UploadResult Model:

• Type-safe response for upload operations
• Contains: success (bool), filePath (String), fileName (String)
• Serializable through Serverpod protocol
• Used consistently across all upload endpoints

Files Endpoint - Public Listing:

• listPublic(linkPrefix) - Lists files in publicly shared folders
• Validates link exists, hasn't expired, and has canUpload=true
• Only works for directory links
• Returns same FsEntry stream as authenticated list

Links Endpoint:

• getPublicLinkInfo(linkPrefix) - Gets link metadata without authentication
• Returns null for expired links
• Used to check link validity and canUpload flag

PublicSharedFolderScreen:

• Displays files in publicly shared folders
• Accessed via /public-shared-folder route with linkPrefix query parameter
• Uses getPublicLinkInfo to validate link before showing files
• Uses listPublic to fetch file list without authentication
• Shows error message if link is invalid, expired, or doesn't allow uploads
• Reuses FileTile component for consistent file display
• Properly translates all UI text
• Handles tap events on files/folders with informative messages
• Includes upload button placeholder in app bar

UploadProgressDialog:

• Instance method with builder => this pattern
• Shows all uploads (pending, active, completed, failed)
• Progress bars with percentage for active uploads
• Color-coded status messages
• Clear completed uploads button
• Can't be dismissed while uploads are active (barrierDismissible: false)

📦 Dependencies Added

• file_picker: ^10.3.6 (Flutter) - For selecting files to upload
• mime: ^2.0.0 (Server) - For parsing multipart form data

🔒 Security

• Authenticated uploads require authentication and folder access validation
• Public uploads validate link prefix, canUpload flag, and expiration
• Upload path validation prevents directory traversal attacks
• Admin users have full access, regular users limited to their folders
• Public links with canUpload only work for folders, not files
• Public file listing validates link and canUpload before returning files

🌐 Public Link Upload Flow

1. User creates shared link for a folder with canUpload=true
2. Link recipient accesses the public link
3. App redirects to /public-shared-folder?linkPrefix={key}
4. App calls getPublicLinkInfo(linkPrefix) to validate link
5. App calls listPublic(linkPrefix) to display folder contents with FileTile components
6. Files can be uploaded to /public-upload with linkPrefix and file data
7. Server validates link, checks canUpload flag, and saves file to folder
8. Server returns UploadResult with success status and file info

Next Steps (Future Enhancements)

The following could be added in future iterations:

1. Implement public file upload UI in PublicSharedFolderScreen
2. Add file download functionality in public view
3. Add folder navigation in public view
4. Drag-and-drop file upload
5. Folder upload support
6. Upload resume capability
7. Thumbnail generation for images
8. Duplicate file handling options

@copilot You forgot about uploading interface in app with progress screen/dialog.

@copilot You forgot about uploading interface in app with progress screen/dialog.

Added complete file upload interface with progress tracking in commit f3ed906.

Features implemented:

• Upload button in files bar (upload icon) to select and upload multiple files
• Upload progress dialog showing real-time progress with percentage, bytes uploaded, and status for each file
• Active upload badge displaying number of uploads in progress (click to view details)
• Cancel capability for individual uploads with X button
• File picker integration using file_picker package for selecting multiple files
• Server upload endpoint (/upload) handling multipart file uploads with authentication
• Automatic refresh of file list after successful uploads
• Toast notifications for upload start, completion, and errors

The upload dialog shows all uploads with status indicators (pending, uploading, completed, failed, cancelled) and can't be dismissed while uploads are active. Users can clear completed uploads to keep the list clean.

@copilot Also I want canUpload flag for public links only be used for folder, after opening link to folder url will be redirected to public route on app with query parameter with link key. This key allows to list files in this specific folder

Implemented public link upload for folders in commit 195b7cf.

Server endpoints added:

• /public-upload - Accepts file uploads with linkPrefix (no authentication required)
• files.listPublic(linkPrefix) - Lists files in publicly shared folder
• links.getPublicLinkInfo(linkPrefix) - Gets link metadata without auth

Features:

• canUpload flag only works for folders (directories)
• Validates link exists, hasn't expired, and has canUpload=true
• Public uploads save files directly to the shared folder
• No authentication required - uses link prefix for validation

Usage flow:

1. Create shared link for folder with canUpload=true
2. App calls getPublicLinkInfo(linkPrefix) to check if upload allowed
3. App calls listPublic(linkPrefix) to show folder contents
4. Upload files to /public-upload with linkPrefix parameter

The frontend app can now create a public route that accepts the link key as a query parameter and provides the upload interface.
