Selecting from assets does not work.

[martinviolet88]

Selecting images from the image libary does not work. After selecting they do appear under the bulk uploader but not in the grifield. After doing a hard ctrl shift r it does seem to work. So my guess it's a caching error? No error's found.

any update on this?

[martinviolet88]

@guyvanbael Nope, having the same problem?

[lozcalver]

I think this PR might also fix this issue: #205. Or possibly #206

@kinglozzer just used dev-master in my latest project, but issue still occuring

same issue here, after some time investigating the problem I didn't manage to find error or something... ended up here :)

Did this ever get resolved? We've just discovered the same problem, also using dev-master.
However for us it seems to only be a problem about 50% of the time.

After some digging I think I've found the problem to this. In the uploader.js file the bulkUploadFieldReducer reducer is wrapped with a JS DOMContentLoaded. However this file is only requested when a SiteTree page is loaded up in the CMS, meaning the DOM is already loaded and this reducer never gets added. This is only a problem when you load the CMS via /admin then browse to a page to edit - if you refresh on a SiteTree page or route straight to a page (e.g. /admin/pages/edit/show/1) then the correct events are fired and everything works.

I don't know enough about the admin javascript lifecycle to confidently create a PR for this, but perhaps someone else can use this info for a fix?

Thanks to @acndr's description, and @PixNyb's commit (which wasn't merged as the PR included unnecessary SS5 updates), I've managed to confirm that adding client/dist/js/main.js to extra_requirements_javascript appears to fix this issue:

SilverStripe\Admin\LeftAndMain:
  extra_requirements_javascript:
    - 'colymba/gridfield-bulk-editing-tools: client/dist/js/main.js'

I feel like there could be a better solution than just loading the JS with LeftAndMain, but let me know if you think this is adequate and I'll re-submit @PixNyb's commit as a PR.
