Providing custom uploading methods

As mentioned at the Config Params section, you have an ability to provide own custom uploading method. It is a quite simple: implement uploadByFile method and pass them via uploader config param. The method return a Promise that resolves with response in a format that described at the backend response format section.

MethodArgumentsReturn valueDescription
uploadByFileFile{Promise.<{success, file: {url}}>}Upload file to the server and return an uploaded file data

Example:

import AttachesTool from '@editorjs/attaches';

var editor = EditorJS({
  ...

  tools: {
    ...
    attaches: {
      class: AttachesTool,
      config: {
        /**
         * Custom uploader
         */
        uploader: {
          /**
           * Upload file to the server and return an uploaded image data
           * @param {File} file - file selected from the device or pasted by drag-n-drop
           * @return {Promise.<{success, file: {url}}>}
           */
          uploadByFile(file){
            // your own uploading logic here
            return MyAjax.upload(file).then((response) => {
              return {
                success: 1,
                file: {
                  url: response.fileurl,
                  // any data you want
                  // for example: name, size, title
                }
              };
            });
          },
        }
      }
    }
  }
  ...
});

Providing custom download button event handlers

As mentioned at the Config Params section, you have an ability to provide own custom onClick event handler for the download button. It is a quite simple: implement onClick method and pass them via downloadButton config param. This method will be invoked when the download button is clicked.

MethodArgumentsReturn valueDescription
onClickMouseEvent, ObjectvoidHandle the click event for the download button, allowing custom logic

Example:

import AttachesTool from '@editorjs/attaches';

var editor = EditorJS({
  ...

  tools: {
    ...
    attaches: {
      class: AttachesTool,
      config: {
        /**
         * Custom download button handler
         */
        downloadButton: {
          /**
           * Custom logic to execute when download button is clicked
           * @param {MouseEvent} event - The click event object
           * @param {Object} data - The file data object, containing information such as url, name, size, extension
           */
          onClick: function(event, data) {
            // Prevent the default download behavior
            event.preventDefault();

            // Custom download logic here
            console.log('File download initiated:', data.file.url);
          }
        }
      }
    }
