🚀 Installation

To install React File Manager, use the following command:

npm i @cubone/react-file-manager

💻 Usage

Here’s a basic example of how to use the File Manager Component in your React application:

import { useState } from "react";
import { FileManager } from "@cubone/react-file-manager";
import "@cubone/react-file-manager/dist/style.css";

function App() {
  const [files, setFiles] = useState([
    {
      name: "Documents",
      isDirectory: true, // Folder
      path: "/Documents", // Located in Root directory
      updatedAt: "2024-09-09T10:30:00Z", // Last updated time
    },
    {
      name: "Pictures",
      isDirectory: true,
      path: "/Pictures", // Located in Root directory as well
      updatedAt: "2024-09-09T11:00:00Z",
    },
    {
      name: "Pic.png",
      isDirectory: false, // File
      path: "/Pictures/Pic.png", // Located inside the "Pictures" folder
      updatedAt: "2024-09-08T16:45:00Z",
      size: 2048, // File size in bytes (example: 2 KB)
    },
  ]);

  return (
    <>
      <FileManager files={files} />
    </>
  );
}

export default App;

📂 File Structure

The files prop accepts an array of objects, where each object represents a file or folder. You can customize the structure to meet your application needs. Each file or folder object follows the structure detailed below:

type File = {
  name: string;
  isDirectory: boolean;
  path: string;
  updatedAt?: string; // Optional: Last update timestamp in ISO 8601 format
  size?: number; // Optional: File size in bytes (only applicable for files)
};
