"WARN: Your browser does not support the html5 File API"

Open bastiwasni opened this issue 10 years ago • 2 comments

Hi there!

I am developing an ionic app and mentioned that in my firefox (developer edition) i get this error: "WARN: Your browser does not support the html5 File API".

The images are not displayed.

Any ideas how to fix that?

Happens the same in Safari. My guess is that it's trying to use the Filesystem & FileWriter API which is only supported by chrome http://caniuse.com/#feat=filesystem No ideia on how to fix it. Decided to implement my own basic solution, storing the base64 of the images on local storage.

imgcache.js is essentially useless for every browser besides Chrome and iOS/Android shimmed with Cordova. Ideally, if there is no FileSystem support, this directive should just display the image using the original URL. The service can do this (see https://github.com/chrisben/imgcache.js#high-level-api), but the directives apparently do not.

@jBenes would you merge a PR with this fallback logic in place? Or does it make more sense to create the logic externally and have a conditional ng-if on eveywhere img-cache is used?
