@filerobot/core

@filerobot/core

The core module of the Filerobot Media Asset Widget (FMAW). This module contains all common settings shared across all FMAW plugins and can be used standalone in your upload workflows to interact with Filerobot DAM.

Usage

NPM

npm install --save @filerobot/core

YARN

yarn add @filerobot/core

then

import Filerobot from '@filerobot/core'
...
...
...
const filerobot = Filerobot(propertiesObject)

CDN

If installed via the CDN link, the plugin is inside the Filerobot global object as Filerobot.Core

const FilerobotCore = window.Filerobot.Core
...
...
...
const filerobot = FilerobotCore(propertiesObject)

Module's styles

import "@filerobot/core/dist/style.css";

or via the minified versions

import "@filerobot/core/dist/style.min.css";

The Core's styles must be imported before the filerobot's plugins' styles.

Properties

Required attributes are marked with (Required).

container

Type: string Required.

Default: undefined

The container token (Filerobot token) that will be used in all the widget's modes & plugins ex. (listing files/folders, uploading, renaming, deleting...etc.). Register for an account at scaleflex.com to obtain a token.

securityTemplateId

PREVIOUSLY: securityTemplateID

Type: string Required.

Default: undefined

The Security Template Id is used for the the FMAW to request session-specific API access keys, also known as SASS key. Security Templates are created in the Filerobot Asset Hub and define permissions and validity for SASS keys. They work similar to oAuth2 tokens.

id

Type: string.

Default: 'filerobot'

The unique identifier used for identifying the widget's instance (# in HTML selector).

dev

Type: boolean.

Default: false.

Enables the development mode which sends all requests to development server, otherwise all the endpoints defaults to the production server.

Note: enabling development mode, will show some features that won't work (they're hidden in production mode) with u cause of the generated sass key permissions (that is generated through the security template id).

theme

Type: object.

Default:

{
  palette: {...},
  breakpoints: {...},
  typography: {...}
  shadows: {...}
}

You can check default values for each property here:

• color palette
• typography
• breakpoints
• shadows

We are using @scaleflex/ui theme system to have global theme wrapping the project and you can customize it by overriding the default theme values.

You can check the values you can override for each property:

• For color palette you can select the property key from this list
• For typography, you can change font variant and font weight
• For breakpoints list
• For Shadows list

  theme: {
      palette: {
         "accent-primary": "#479898",
         "accent-primary-hover": "#479898",
         "accent-primary-active": "#479898",
         "accent-stateless": "#479898",
         "link-pressed": "#479898",
         "border-active-bottom": "#479898"
       },
       typography: {
          "title-h6": {
            fontWeight: FontWeight.Medium, // 500
            fontSize: '12px',
            lineHeight: '18px',
          },
       },
       breakpoints: {
         values: {
           xs: 0,
           md: 900,
           xl: 1400
         }
       },
       shadows: {
         "shadow-sm": '6px -4px 12px 0px rgba(146, 166, 188, 0.14)'
       }
    }

NOTE: You must import the font family from your side in 2 weights (Normal === 400, Medium === 500) to have fonts work properly and show text as expected, which means Roboto is not included in the plugin by default so you must import it from your side too if you have provided another font family value through theme don't forget to import it from your side too.

autoProceed

Type: boolean.

Default: false.

If set to true, the upload process of one or multiple assets will start automatically after drag and drop in the upload area or selection from the user's local explorer. If set to false, the pre-upload features will be available to the user before starting the upload via the Upload button.

allowMultipleUploads

Type: boolean.

Default: true.

If set to false, only one upload will be possible simultaneously.

debug

Type: boolean.

Default: false.

Turns on the debug mode by exposing the plugin's debug information to the global window object and turns on the logger.

logger

Type: object.

Default:

errorsLogger = {
  debug: (...args) => {},
  warn: (...args) => {},
  error: (...args) => console.error(`[Filerobot] [${getTimeStamp()}]`, ...args),
};

restrictions

Type: object.

Default:

{
  maxFileSize: null,
  maxNumberOfFiles: null,

onBeforeFileAdded

Type: function.

Default: (currentFile, files) => currentFile
