How to reset selected file with input tag file type in Angular 2?

Question

This is how my input tag looks like:

Rese         


        

Answer 1

I typically reset my file input after capturing the selected files. No need to push a button, you have everything required in the $event object that you're passing to onChange:

onChange(event) {
  // Get your files
  const files: FileList = event.target.files;

  // Clear the input
  event.srcElement.value = null;
}

Different workflow, but the OP doesn't mention pushing a button is a requirement...
