File upload feature in explorer (nice to have)

There seems to be a dataType in the newest swagger-ui for file, so this shouldn't be too difficult.

There is a catch though: at the moment, we don't have a good way how to say that a remote method accepts/returns a file. We need to improve strong-remoting to support files - see strongloop/strong-remoting#35

+1 for this to get implemented. If we use API explorer as an example of how to use our API's, we should be able to demonstrate file upload as well.
