Play file in audio

Question

Hello!

If I have access in code to Folder or file - how can I play it in <audio> element?

I think it should be very popular question.

Answer 1

After you get a return value as "file" from filepicker, convert the result to a fileURL->

            var fileLocation = window.URL.createObjectURL(file, { oneTimeOnly: true });

then you can just set the audio source of a HTML5 audio element->

                audtag.setAttribute("src", fileLocation);

                audtag.load();

then you can play it like->

                audtag.play();

or if you give the user controls under the audio tag, then you can let them play, pause or stop.
