Step 1 – Select txt file with kendo upload
(either upload it to a database at this stage or to app_data folder to be deleted later or another method)
Step 2 – Extract data from the txt file
(? depending on step 1 I would select the file I uploaded or is in app_data or … then put it through a file steam or something to grab all the text inside)
Step 3 – Assign extracted data to a table model to record back to a database
I should only be dealing with a single file at a time which I would also wonder if I can restrict kendo upload to allow only single files per upload if it’s even needed for me to upload the file.
The Kendo Music Store sample app has an example of an ASP.NET WebAPI controller reading a posted file (an image in this case, but file contents doesn’t matter) and saving it to the file system: ImagesController.cs
You could do something similar; read the file contents off the ASP.NET request, and do whatever processing you want.
The HTML and Javascript that set up the Kendo upload widget is in: storemanager-index.js
And finally a little bit of documentation from the Kendo Music Store tutorial docs: Album Art Upload With The Kendo Upload Widget
