Unable to instantiate the catalog import uploader with $filePath set

[brideo]

Preconditions

• Magento 2.0.x or 2.1.0 is installed CE or EE
• Module is setup with class and Magento\CatalogImportExport\Model\Import\UploaderFactory in the construct

Steps to reproduce

• Using the factory pattern you instantiate the class Magento\CatalogImportExport\Model\Import\Uploader with $filePath defined

Actual and Expected result

• Exception is thrown because $this->_directory is not set
• Class should be instantiated

Additional information

So there is a bug in this class:

Magento\CatalogImportExport\Model\Import\Uploader:

I am using this and instantiating it within my own class like so:

    /**
     * Importer constructor.
     *
     * @param Config\File $file
     */
    public function __construct(File $file, UploaderFactory $uploaderFactory) {
        $this->uploader = $uploaderFactory->create(['filePath' => $file->getFilePath()]);
    }

The __construct of Magento\CatalogImportExport\Model\Import\Uploader looks like this:

    public function __construct(
        \Magento\MediaStorage\Helper\File\Storage\Database $coreFileStorageDb,
        \Magento\MediaStorage\Helper\File\Storage $coreFileStorage,
        \Magento\Framework\Image\AdapterFactory $imageFactory,
        \Magento\MediaStorage\Model\File\Validator\NotProtectedExtension $validator,
        \Magento\Framework\Filesystem $filesystem,
        \Magento\Framework\Filesystem\File\ReadFactory $readFactory,
        $filePath = null
    ) {
        if ($filePath !== null) {
            $this->_setUploadFile($filePath);
        }
        $this->_imageFactory = $imageFactory;
        $this->_coreFileStorageDb = $coreFileStorageDb;
        $this->_coreFileStorage = $coreFileStorage;
        $this->_validator = $validator;
        $this->_directory = $filesystem->getDirectoryWrite(DirectoryList::ROOT);
        $this->_readFactory = $readFactory;
    }

You can see that the _setUploadFile method is called which uses $this->_directory which has not been set yet, unless I'm missing something.

Cheers!

@brideo thank you for your report.
Please, format this issue according to the Issue reporting guidelines: with steps to reproduce, actual result and expected result.
Please, also identify which version of Magento you are running.

Hey I'm running Magento 2.0.7 EE, I've found a workaround and don't have time to re-format sorry.

@brideo please report EE issues via the Support portal of your account or Partner portal if you are a partner reporting on behalf of a merchant.
Github is intended for Community edition reports given no account management for CE users. This will allow for proper tracking of issues at the account level

I have a work around so it won't be necessary, however this is an issue on CE too:
