Installation

To install:

Documentation

this module currently contains 4 major entities, which are

1. Receiver
2. UploadManager
3. UploadHandler
4. File Status

Receiver

Receiver helps you to manage the Drag and Drop functionality. Once you mounted the Receiver component, your application will start listen to dragenter, dragover, dragleave and drop events.

import { Receiver } from 'react-file-uploader';

<Receiver
  customClass={STRING_OR_ARRAY}
  style={OBJECT}
  isOpen={BOOLEAN}
  onDragEnter={FUNCTION}
  onDragOver={FUNCTION}
  onDragLeave={FUNCTION}
  onFileDrop={FUNCTION}
>
    <div>
      visual layer of the receiver (drag & drop panel)
    </div>
</Receiver>

Props

• customClass - string | array: the class name(s) for the div wrapper
• style - object: the style for the div wrapper
• isOpen - boolean required: to control in the parent component whether the Receiver is visble.
• onDragEnter - function required: when isOpen is false, this will be fired with the window event of dragenter once .

You may make use of the drag & drop event callbacks.

// @param e Object DragEvent
function onDragEnter(e) {
	this.setState({ isReceiverOpen: true });
}

• onDragOver - function: this will be fired with the window event of dragover.

// @param e Object DragEvent
function onDragOver(e) {
	// your codes here
}

• onDragLeave - function required: when the drag event entirely left the client (i.e. dragLevel === 0), this will be fired with the window event of dragleave once.

// @param e Object DragEvent
function onDragLeave(e) {
	this.setState({ isReceiverOpen: false });
}

• onFileDrop - function required: this will be fired with the window event of drop. You may execute any validation / checking process here i.e. size, file type, etc.

// @param e Object DragEvent
// @param files Array the files dropped on the target node
function onFileDrop(e, files) {
	// check if the files are drop on the targeted DOM
	const node = ReactDOM.findDOMNode(this.refs.uploadPanel);
	if (e.target !== node) {
		return;
	}

	files.forEach(file => {
		// check file size
		if (file.size > 1000 * 1000) {
			file.error = 'file size exceeded 1MB';
		}
	})

	// put files into state/stores by setState/action
	this.setState({
		files: this.state.files.concat(files),
	});

	// close the Receiver after file dropped
	this.setState({ isReceiverOpen: false });
}

UploadManager

Upload Manager serves as a high order component which helps you to manage the upload related parameters and functions. It prepares the upload function with superagent the children elements, and helps you to update the lifecycle status of the uploading files.

**IMPORTANT: this high order component serves only for ** UploadHandler

import { UploadManager } from 'react-file-uploader';

<UploadManager
  customClass={STRING_OR_ARRAY}
  style={OBJECT}
  uploadUrl={STRING}
  uploadHeader={OBJECT}
  onUpload={FUNCTION}
  onUploadProgress={FUNCTION}
  onUploadEnd={FUNCTION}
>

	// UploadHandler as children
	files.map(file => (
		<UploadHandle key={file._id} file={FILE_INSTANCE} autoStart={BOOLEAN} />
	))
</UploadManager>

Props

• component - string: the DOM tag name of the wrapper
• customClass - string | array: the class name(s) for the wrapper
• style - object: the style for the wrapper
• uploadUrl - string required: the url of the upload end point from your server.
• uploadHeader - object: the header object to be set as request header.
• onUploadStart - function: this will be fired when the POST request is just sent.

// @param file Object the file object returned with UPLOADING status and 0% progress.
function onUploadStart(file) {
	// your codes here
}

• onUploadProgress - function: this will be fired when the POST request returns progress. A debounced function is STRONGLY recommaned to prevent from performance issue.

// @param file Object the file object returned with UPLOADING status and n% progress.
function onUploadProgress(file) {
	// your codes here
}

• onUploadEnd - function required: this will be fired upon the end of POST request.

// @param file Object the file object returned with either UPLOADED or FAILED status and 100% progress. When it is wilh FAILED status, error property should be also assigned to the file object.
function onUploadEnd(file) {
	// your codes here
}

• errorHandler - function: this function is to process the arguments of (err, res) in superagent.end(). In this function, you can resolve the error and result according to your upload api response. Default implementation is available as defaultProps.

function errorHandler(err, res) {
  let error = null;
  const body = clone(res.body);

  if (err) {
  	error = err;
  } else if (body && body.errors) {
    error = body.errors;
  }

  delete body.errors;

  return { error, result: body };
}

UploadHandler

Upload Handler helps you to execute the upload lifecycle, which is start, progress and end. It also acts as the presentation layer of a file, showing users the info of the uploading / uploaded file.

import { UploadHandler } from 'react-file-uploader';

<UploadHandler
	customClass={CLASS_STRING_OR_ARRAY}
	style={STYLE_OBJECT}
	file={FILE_OBJECT}
	autoStart={BOOLEAN}
	upload={UPLOAD_FUNCTION}
/>

Props

• component - string: the DOM tag name of the wrapper
• customClass - string | array: the class name(s) for the wrapper
• style - object: the style for the wrapper
• file - object required: the file object that is uploaded / going to be uploaded.
• autoStart - boolean: when autoStart is set to true, upon the UploadHandler component did mount, it will detect if the file i.e. as props is with the PENDING status and initialise a POST request which is sent to the uploadUrl you passed to the UploadManager.
• upload - function: the function that contains the upload logic, you may pass it directly when you are using UploadHandler alone, or it could be prepared by UploadManager.

// @param url String API upload end point
// @param file Object File Object
function upload(url, file) {
	// your codes here
}

File Status

react-file-uploader defines a set of status constants to represent the file status. The corresponding status will be assign to a file object throughout the uploading life cycle.

FAILED = -1
PENDING = 0
UPLOADING = 1
UPLOADED = 2
