An image is worth thousand words

npm i @brainhubeu/react-file-input

Or if you prefer

yarn add @brainhubeu/react-file-input

The basic usage is very simple, the only important prop you have to pass is onChangeCallback:

import React from 'react';
import FileInput from '@brainhubeu/react-file-input';
import doSomethingWithMyFile from '../utils/doThings';

const MyFileUploader = () => (
  <div>
    <FileInput
      label='Awesome Uploader'
      onChangeCallback={doSomethingWithMyFile}
    />
  </div>
);

export const MyFileUploader;

And your set and ready to do something with your file.

See the reference below for more advanced usages.

Probably you are not crazy enough to handle your forms like in 1999. Chances are that you are using redux-form. If so, it's your lucky day, because you can use our FileInput with redux-forms. Here's a basic example:

// MyFileInput.js
import React, { PureComponent } from 'react';
import FileInput from '@brainhubeu/react-file-input';

export default class MyFileInput extends PureComponent {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);

    this.onChange = this.onChange.bind(this)
  }
  onChange({ value }) {
    const { input } = this.props;

    input.onChange(value);
  }
  render() {
    const { input, label } = this.props;

    return (
      <FileInput
        label='Awesome Uploader'
        onChangeCallback={this.onChange}
        onDragEnterCallback={input.onFocus}
        onDragLeaveCallback={input.onBlur}
      />
    );
  }
}

// MyGreatForm.js
import MyFileInput from './MyFileInput'

...

<Field name="myField" component={MyFileInput}/>

And that's it. Prepare some coffee and enjoy.

The Component comes with custom css. You must import them using our component (if not things will look wrong). Of course you could also override them ;)

// index.js
import React from 'react';
import { render } from 'react-dom';

import App from './App';

import '@brainhubeu/react-file-input/dist/react-file-input.css';

render(
  <App />,
  document.getElementById('app')
);

Or if you prefer from your stylesheet directly:

@import "~@brainhubeu/react-file-input/dist/react-file-input.css";

// very good css here...

You can customize the styles of the different components passing classnames as a prop:

Those classnames are for the top main components. But if you want to override child styles you can writing some css. Here's how you can do so:

.myCustomClassName {
  .brainhub-file-input__label {
    font-size: 10px;
    color: #ccc;
  }
}

Take a look on the styles and selectors here: https://github.com/brainhubeu/react-file-input/tree/master/src/styles

The internal state of the FileInput is important to you, because the callbacks will be call with it as argument.

To run the example, type:

cd docs-www

and

npm run develop
// or
yarn develop

if you want to run a local version of react-file-input, please use:

npm run develop:local
// or
yarn develop:local
