In my Ionic project I need to read a local txt file and convert it in an array at every "\n". I had a look at this answer, but I can't use the function since it tells me that readFile (or readFileAsync) is not a function.
I need to open it while running locally on my browser, not on device, so I'm not looking for a solution using cordova and ionic-native

  • Hi, thanks, I can't find how to load the file from a path ... Every method needs a File or a Blob, but I don't know how to create them Commented Nov 24, 2017 at 16:58
  • Add a file input or drop zone in page or if file is on local server make ajax request and then you don't even need FileReader...just parse the text Commented Nov 24, 2017 at 17:36
