Extend upload api adding an option to upload files in chunks, using UploadStash to track the unfinished upload. Comment: - At the moment, few browsers could ever hash the file client side, period. - Reading the entire file may be prohibitively expensive. We do read entire files in for thumbnailing, on some browsers, but there are max sizes. - That's not even the problem we're trying to solve here. We're not trying to detect errors after the fact, we're trying to make the upload process more reliable. They aren't the same thing. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
