Adding Titles to Image Uploads
Hey there,
I’m trying to add titles to the images being uploaded using the uploads guide.
After tinkering a bit, I asked our beloved AI tools. What they suggest is maintaining a separate metadata map and creating the necessary structure by using a metadata[#{entry.uuid}][title] input name. So something along the following lines:
...
<.live_file_input upload={@uploads.image} />
<section phx-drop-target={@uploads.image.ref}>
<%!-- render each image entry --%>
<article :for={entry <- @uploads.image.entries} class="upload-entry">
<figure>
<.live_img_preview entry={entry} />
<figcaption>{entry.client_name}</figcaption>
</figure>
<%!-- extra input to add an image title --%>
<.input
name={"metadata[#{entry.uuid}][title]"}
type="text"
label="Titel"
value={get_image_metadata(@image_metadata, entry.ref, :description)}
phx-change="update-image-metadata"
/>
...
While this should work, it just feels a little hacky to render this input so raw and manual.
Is there a cleaner approach, where I can eg. lean more on the Phoenix.HTML.FormField abstraction and use <.input field={@image_form[entry.uuid][:title]} ... or similar?
Thanks ![]()
