How to Get the Width and Height of Multiple Images in Angular Using TypeScript

When working on a web application that involves image uploads, it's essential to gather information about the images such as their dimensions before proceeding with the upload. This becomes particularly important when you want to ensure that the uploaded images meet certain size requirements or when you wish to dynamically adjust the layout based on an image's size.

In this guide, we will tackle a common problem faced by developers: how to retrieve the width and height of multiple images uploaded by a user using Angular and TypeScript. We will outline the issue and then provide a step-by-step solution that not only fixes the problem but optimizes the code for better performance.

Problem Statement

Suppose you have a function that is designed to capture the width and height of images that a user uploads using a file input. However, you've encountered a significant issue: the function currently only provides the dimensions of the first image in the uploaded array. This is not ideal when multiple images are involved, as you want to work with all of them instead of just the first.

The Initial Code

Here's the original code snippet that showcases how you are currently trying to achieve this:

Analyzing the code, we note that you are attempting to loop through the images, but the structure used is not ideal for handling multiple files correctly.

The Solution

To rectify the issue, we need to modify how we handle the files array. Instead of directly referring to the array in a manner that only accesses the first element, we will convert the FileList into an array and then map through each file correctly. Here’s how you can do that:

Step-by-Step Implementation

Convert FileList to Array: The first step is to create an array from the FileList. This makes it easier to work with the files one by one.

Map Through Each File: Instead of using an index to access file[i], simply work with file directly in the map function.

Create Promises: For each file, create a new Promise that reads the file and retrieves the dimensions.

Here’s the revised function:

Key Changes Explained

Using Array.from(files): This method converts the FileList object into an array, allowing us to iterate through all files effectively.

Direct File Reference: By mapping directly to file, we avoid complications with indexing which previously led to always getting only the first file's dimensions.

Error Handling: Added basic error handling for both the FileReader and image loading processes to enhance robustness.

Conclusion

Now you should be able to get the width and height of all the images uploaded at once. By following the adjustments laid out above, you enhance your code’s readability and efficiency, providing a better experience in your Angular application.
