@siddjain/react-file-input v0.1.2

README

Bare-bones file picker for react with no dependencies (other than react >= 16.8) or bells and whistles. What it does - it allows you to select multiple files and order and / or delete them. That's it. You can also set a limit on the number of files user can select and the file types. This package will not install react for you. It assumes you will add react dependency in your package.json along-side react-file-input. Example screenshot:

How to use it

Assuming you know how to write a React app:

import FileInput from "@siddjain/react-file-input";

export default function App() {
  return (
    <div className="App">
      <FileInput maxFileCount={3} accept=".png,.jpg,.jpeg" />
    </div>
  );
}

Demo

API

FileInput takes following optional inputs:

• onChange: an event handler that is called whenever the file list changes (addition, deletion or change in order of items in the list)
• maxFileSize: a number. units: bytes. If user selects a file whose size is greater than maxFileSize a warning symbol is displayed. The file is still selected and added to list of files.
• accept: same as accept. a string that defines the file types the file input should accept.
• value: this is useful if you will be using FileInput in a multi-step (multi-page) form where user can go back and forth. An array of File objects to initialize FileInput's list of files.
