[GitHub] [cordova-plugin-file] artuska opened issue #260: File becomes [object Object] in FormData

[GitHub]

The File object i get from the cordova-plugin-file in my Cordova application is 
not the same as File i get in browser (for example in FileList when i choose 
files from <input type="file">).

```
// i use cordova-plugin-filechooser to select a file 

window.fileChooser.open((uri: string) => {

    // `uri` is a `content://...`

    window.FilePath.resolveNativePath(uri, (path: string) => {
 
        // `path` is a `file://...`

        window.resolveLocalFileSystemURL(path, (entry: FileEntry) => {
            entry.file((file: File) => {
                let fd = new FormData();

                fd.append('image', file);

                console.log(fd.get('image'));
                console.log(fd.getAll('image'));
            });
        });
    });
});
```

Console.log outputs:

```
[object Object]
["[object Object]"]
```

but it should be:

```
File(36244)
[File(36244)]
```

Here is cordova-plugin-file File object:

Here is normal File object:
<img width="512" alt="screen shot 2018-10-03 at 18 10 23" 
src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1013856/46453523-9d2add80-c7aa-11e8-9056-9e0f78d73bdb.png";>

How can i get normal File to use it in FormData? I need this to send files to 
the server.
