Multi Image Uploader

A customizable, drag-and-drop image uploader built with React and MUI. Supports multiple image uploads, sorting, and file type validation. Allows reordering images with a preview and handles readonly and loading states using react.

Features

• Drag and drop image uploader with live preview.
• Image reordering using drag-and-drop.
• Supports minimum and maximum number of images.
• File type validation for image uploads.
• Configurable placeholder for image slots.
• Readonly mode to disable editing features.
• Loading state for skeleton placeholders while images are being fetched.

Installation

Install the package using npm or yarn:

npm install multi-image-uploader

Or

yarn add multi-image-uploader

Usage

Import the ImageUploader component into your React project and configure it according to your needs:

import React from 'react';
import ImageUploader, { OnImageUploaderProps } from 'multi-image-uploader';

const App = () => {
  const handleUpload = (files: OnImageUploaderProps[]) => {
    console.log('Uploaded files:', files);
  };

  return (
    <ImageUploader
      minImages={3}
      maxImages={5}
      validImages={[{ url: 'https://example.com/image1.jpg', order: 1 }]}
      onUpload={handleUpload}
      acceptTypes={['image/jpeg', 'image/png']}
      readonly={false}
      loading={false}
    />
  );
};

export default App;

Props

Image Slot States

The image slots in the uploader have the following states:

• Placeholder: Empty slots where users can upload images.
• Image Uploaded: Displays a preview of the uploaded image.
• Loading: Displays a skeleton loader when the loading prop is set to true.

Sorting

The uploader supports drag-and-drop sorting, allowing users to reorder images. You can implement custom logic by handling the sort change via internal state management.

Example of Image Upload Data Structure

The onUpload function returns an array of objects containing the uploaded file and its corresponding order:

[
  {
    "file": [File], // Image file object
    "order": 1      // Order after sorting
  },
  {
    "file": [File],
    "order": 2
  }
]

Readonly Mode

The readonly prop disables all upload and delete functionalities. It only shows the images that have been uploaded or passed via the validImages prop.

<ImageUploader
  readonly={true}
  validImages={[{ url: 'https://example.com/image1.jpg', order: 1 }]}
/>
