SlingPostServlet File Upload Section Documentation Needs an Update
Hello,
The following has been mentioned in the documentation regarding the algorithm used for selecting the primary node type of the file uploaded -
"If a @TypeHint suffixed parameter is not present or the value does not denote an existing non-mixin node type, the node will be created as an nt:file node if the parent node is of type nt:folder. Otherwise the node will be created with primary node type nt:resource."
However, while playing around, I found it to be slightly different -
The primary node type also depends on the "name" attribute of the <input type="file"> tag. If the input tag has a name attribute which is NOT *, for example, name="image", then the node is created with a name "image" and it has properties jcr:data, jcr:lastModified and jcr:mimeType. However, is the name attribute is *, name="*", then it doesn't matter whether the parent node is of type nt:folder or something else, the node for uploaded file is always created with node type as nt:file only.
Regards,Gaurav
