use-input-file

A React hook that allows you to handle HTML <input type="file">.

DEMO

Installation

$ yarn add use-input-file

Basic Usage

import React, { useEffect } from 'react';
import useInputFile from 'use-input-file';

const App () => {
  const { ref, files } = useInputFile();

  // Check your upload files changed
  useEffect(() => {
    console.log(files);
  }, [files]);

  return (
    <input ref={ref}>
  )
};

Passing Custom ref

import React, { useEffect, useRef } from 'react';

const App () => {
  const ref = useRef(null);
  const { files } = useInputFile({ ref });

  // Check your upload files
  useEffect(() => {
    console.log(files);
  }, [files]);

  return (
    <input ref={ref}>
  )
};

Setting Input Options

You can set input file attributes by options:

const options = { multiple: true, accept: 'image/*' };
const { ref, files } = useInput({ options });

// render: <input type="file" multiple="multiple" accept="image/*">

The onChange Callback

As above, the hook default will return empty files, when the input file changed will return new files with your changed.

Sometimes you may want to custom onChange for your logic, so you can pass onChange callback argument to hook and handle input file change for you want.

const onChange = event => {
  // Doing something...
  console.log(event.currentTarget.files);
};
const { ref } = useInputFile({ onChange });
