File upload progress bar with jQuery

Question

I am trying to implement an AJAX file upload feature in my project. I am using jQuery for this; my code submits the data using AJAX. I also want to implement a file upload progress bar. How can I do this? Is there any way to calculate how much has already been uploaded so that I can calculate the percentage uploaded and create a progress bar?

Answer 1

I've done this with jQuery only:

$.ajax({
  xhr: function() {
    var xhr = new window.XMLHttpRequest();

    xhr.upload.addEventListener("progress", function(evt) {
      if (evt.lengthComputable) {
        var percentComplete = evt.loaded / evt.total;
        percentComplete = parseInt(percentComplete * 100);
        console.log(percentComplete);

        if (percentComplete === 100) {

        }

      }
    }, false);

    return xhr;
  },
  url: posturlfile,
  type: "POST",
  data: JSON.stringify(fileuploaddata),
  contentType: "application/json",
  dataType: "json",
  success: function(result) {
    console.log(result);
  }
});
