[FEATURE-REQUEST] Custom type field: image, audio, etc...

[areski]

We might want to consider keeping in mind when drafting kaffy for extendability.
For instance in Django-admin I have built this addons years ago to upload audio files https://github.com/areski/django-audiofield

Similar django-admin addons exists to upload images, videos etc...

This type of addons, give some flexibility in building a custom display for the file you are uploading, add some custom javascript.

I couldn't agree more. Already testing something locally for this. Will have a new branch for it this week hopefully.

For future reference, I have an example of custom image field on a test project:

• https://github.com/areski/ex-chitchat/blob/master/lib/chit_chat_web/helpers/custom_image_field.ex
• https://github.com/areski/ex-chitchat/blob/master/lib/chit_chat_web/admin/upload_admin.ex

The upload of images created thumbnail and fill up few fields for size/content_type.

With our new ability to overload field, save, update etc... the integration with Kaffy is perfect.

Update of image also display the current image:

YES! 🚀 🚀 🚀 🚀 🚀
