Javascript upload video on youtube using drag and drop

Question

I want to upload the video on youtube. Problem statement is that user drag and drop the video on my application and when user click on the upload button video is uploaded to the youtube.

I have written this code

$('#drop-files').bind('drop', function(e) {
    rc = count;
    var files = e.dataTransfer.files;
    //alert("files -"+files[0].path);
    count += files.length;
    $('#uploaded-holder').show();

    $.each(files, function(index, file) {
        console.log("aaaa : "+file);

        //alert("sarthi : "+file.name);
    if (!(files[index].type.match('image.*') || files[index].type.match('pdf.*') || files[index].type.match('video.*'))) {
            alert("ONLY IMAEG AND VIDEO")
            callModel();
        } else {
           // Start a new instance of FileReader*/
            var fileReader = new FileReader();

            var obj = {};
            // When the filereader loads initiate a function
            //alert("file "+file);
            fileReader.onload = (function(file) {

                var isVideo = 1;
                return function(e) {


                    // Push the data URI into an array
                    dataArray.push({
                        name : file.name,
                        value : this.result
                    });

                    // Move each image 40 more pixels across
                    //z = z+40;

                    var image;
                    var video;

                    if(file.type.match('image.*'))
                        image = this.result;
                    else if(file.type.match('pdf.*'))
                        image = "assets/img/pdf.png";
                    else if(file.type.match('video.*')){
                        video = this.result;
                    }

                    // Just some grammatical adjustments
                    /*if(dataArray.length == 1) {
                    $('#upload-button span').html("1 file to be uploaded");
                } else {
                    $('#upload-button span').html(dataArray.length+" files to be uploaded");
                }*/

                        $('#dropped-files').append(html1);
                    }
                };
            })(files[index]);
            fileReader.readAsDataURL(file);
        }
    });
});

I am not able to get the absolute path of file dropped on my application.

Thanks in advance !

You can not access clients (local address) at serverside. This may help you!
