1 file.inc file_save_upload($form_field_name, $validators = array(), $destination = FALSE, $replace = FILE_EXISTS_RENAME)

Saves a file upload to a new location.

The file will be added to the {file_managed} table as a temporary file. Temporary files are periodically cleaned. Use file_usage_add() to register the usage of the file which will automatically mark it as permanent.

Parameters

$form_field_name: A string that is the associative array key of the upload form element in the form array.

$validators: An optional, associative array of callback functions used to validate the file. See file_validate() for a full discussion of the array format. If no extension validator is provided it will default to a limited safe list of extensions which is as follows: "jpg jpeg gif png txt doc xls pdf ppt pps odt ods odp". To allow all extensions you must explicitly set the 'file_validate_extensions' validator to an empty array (Beware: this is not safe and should only be allowed for trusted users, if at all).

$destination: A string containing the URI that the file should be copied to. This must be a stream wrapper URI. If this value is omitted, Backdrop's temporary files scheme will be used ("temporary://").

$replace: Replace behavior when the destination file already exists:

Return value

File|FALSE|NULL: An object containing the file information if the upload succeeded, FALSE in the event of an error, or NULL if no file was uploaded. The documentation for the "File interface" group, which you can find under Related topics, or the header at the top of this file, documents the components of a file entity. In addition to the standard components, this function adds:

  • source: Path to the file before it is moved.
  • destination: Path to the file after it is moved (same as 'uri').
