API


Using vgy.me on your website is easy. You just need to make a POST method request to https://vgy.me/upload. The uploader will always return a JSON response, so you can easily use it with jQuery-based File Uploaders, such as blueimp's jQuery File Uploader, like the basic example below:

				<!DOCTYPE HTML>
				<html>
				    <head>
				        <meta charset="utf-8">
				        <title>My File Uploader</title>
				    </head>
				    <body>
				        <input id="fileupload" type="file" name="file[]" multiple>
				        <script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
				        <script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/blueimp-file-upload/9.19.2/js/vendor/jquery.ui.widget.min.js"></script>
				        <script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/blueimp-file-upload/9.19.2/js/jquery.iframe-transport.min.js"></script>
				        <script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/blueimp-file-upload/9.19.2/js/jquery.fileupload.min.js"></script>
				        
				        <script>
				            $(function()
				            {
				                $("#fileupload").fileupload({
				                    url: "https://vgy.me/upload",
				                    dataType: "json",
				                    done: function(e, data)
				                    {
				                        // For single-file upload
				                        if(typeof data.result.url != "undefined")
				                        {
				                            // outputs <p>https://vgy.me/u/abc123</p>
				                            $("<p/>").text(data.result.url).appendTo(document.body);
				                        }
				                        else
				                        {
				                            // If 2 or more files are uploaded at once
				                            $.each(data.result.upload_list, function(index, url)
				                            {
				                                // outputs <p>https://vgy.me/u/abc123</p>
				                                $("<p/>").text(url).appendTo(document.body);
				                            });
				                        }
				                    }
				                });
				            });
				        </script>
				    </body>
				</html>
			

For single-file uploads, it will return basic information for that upload, like below:

				{
				    "error": false,
				    "filesize": 123456,
				    "filename": "abc123",
				    "ext": "png",
				    "url": "https://vgy.me/u/abc123",
				    "image": "https://i.vgy.me/abc123.png",
				    "delete": "https://vgy.me/delete/DemoDeleteURL",
				}
			

For multi-file uploads, the uploader will always create a random album to store the multiple uploads in. The results will be a single URL to the album, as well as a list of all the uploads within that album:

				{
				    "error": false,
				    "url": "https://vgy.me/album/DemoAlbum",
				    "upload_list": {
				        "https://i.vgy.me/DemoUpload1.png",
				        "https://i.vgy.me/DemoUpload2.png",
				        "https://i.vgy.me/DemoUpload3.png",
				        ...
				    },
				}
			

You can also upload files to our servers through native PHP. Below is an example using PHP 7.0 and cURL:

				<?php
				    $ch = curl_init('https://vgy.me/upload');
				    $file = new CURLFile('/path/to/your/image.jpg', 'mimetype', 'filename');
				    $data = array('file' => $file);
				    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
				    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
				    echo curl_exec($ch);
				?>
			

Optionally, you can also define a title and description to your upload, simply by appending title and/or description as keys to your $data array with the values as your desired inputs, like the example below:

				<?php
				    $ch = curl_init('https://vgy.me/upload');
				    $file = new CURLFile('/path/to/your/image.jpg', 'mimetype', 'filename');
				    $data = array('file' => $file, 'title' => 'Beautiful Flowers', 'description' => 'A beautiful photo of flowers at the local park.');
				    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
				    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
				    echo curl_exec($ch);
				?>
			

If you have an account with us, you can generate a userkey (go here) to have your uploader on your website upload files into your account. All you have to do is include "userkey" => "YourUserKey" into the $data array as shown in the PHP/cURL example below.

				<?php
				    $ch = curl_init("https://vgy.me/upload");
				    $file = new CURLFile("/path/to/your/image.jpg", "mimetype", "filename");
				    $data = array("file" => $file, "userkey" => "YourUserKey");
				    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
				    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
				    echo curl_exec($ch);
				?>
