I am just testing out this Angular module "Nervgh Angular File Upload" for file upload and so far I was able to get it to work as per the example given in the instruction which is great. This allows multiple uploads. Although I read through the properties and methods I can use, I still dont know how to limit the number of uploads to be allowed. For instance, in my form I dont want to allow users to upload more than 3 photos. How can I do that?

Reset to default 11using angular-file-upload v1.0.2
There are predefined filters https://github./nervgh/angular-file-upload/wiki/Module-API#predefined-filters
Predefined filters
- folder
- queueLimit
set the limit:
var uploader = new FileUploader({
queueLimit: 1
});
then in the view.
<element nv-file-drop filters="queueLimit"></element>
If you have set queueLimit to 1 but don't want it applied. Set the filters attribute to an empty string. When filters attribute is not set, all filters apply.
<element nv-file-drop filters=""></element>
I found that multiple filters must not be separated with a space like the doc suggest. Or else only the first filter apply.
<element nv-file-drop filters="filterName1,filterName2"></element>
I contacted the Module author on this and he was really kind in replying to my question. Here is his response on how we can limit the number of file uploads:
You could use "ng-disabled" directive and filters of uploader https://github./nervgh/angular-file-upload/issues/67#issuement-35322492
Following worked for me
uploader = new FileUploader({
queueLimit: 1
});
