react-file-processor v0.0.2

react-file-processor

Description

A React component that adds drag-and-drop functionality to the page it is included on. When files are dropped on the page, the onFileSelect() handler is called. You can also trigger a chooseFile() method on the FileProcessor instance to open the default browser's file picker. This is useful for styling your own file input button.

Getting Started

Install the module with: npm install --save react-file-processor

Usage

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import FileProcessor from 'react-file-processor';
export default class MyApp extends Component {
  handleClick(e) {
    this.refs.myFileInput.chooseFile();
  }
  handleFileSelect(e, files) {
    console.log(e, files);
  }
  render() {
    const self = this;
    return (
      <div>
        <header>My Header</header>
        <div>
          <FileProcessor
            ref="myFileInput"
            onFileSelect={self.handleFileSelect.bind(self)}>
            <button onClick={self.handleClick.bind(handleClick)}>
              Open Local File
            </button>
          </FileProcessor>
        </div>
        <footer>My Footer</footer>
      </div>
    );
  }
}
