Admin Panel - File Loading about expressa HOT 2 OPEN

@kane-mason Are you wanting it to upload the file as a plain-text string? I don't think that will work well since the file can include special characters and such. You could add a listener to do any post-processing on the file though and store it however you want on the server though, right?

Well not as a plain text string, but just as the string content that it already is. I need to tell the admin site that the file being upload is expected to be of text content, and it should send it to me as the text content it is.

Im not 100% sure what is possible, but currently what happens, is i upload an xml file via the admin panel, it can only be received as a base64 string. I then have to convert that to a buffer, and then convert the buffer to a utf8 string. Seems a bit inefficient

Can the file not just be sent as utf8 string? or even a buffer is one step better?
