Upload Drop Zone

Drop zone (container) component to initiate file and folder content uploads Supports individual files as well as recursively iterating over a dropped directory to upload its contents.

Uses html-dir-content to process the files/directories in the dnd events (DataTransferItem).

Can easily be combined with other D&D solutions.

Drop Zones can use different configuration overrides that supersede the options passed to the parent Uploady.

Note: Some options cannot be overriden by the button. For example, any prop that influences the file input directly (such as 'multiple')

#Yarn: 
   $ yarn add @rpldy/uploady @rpldy/upload-drop-zone

Example

Simple example, shows how upload options can be passed to the drop-zone (grouped, maxGroupSize).

import Uploady from "@rpldy/uploady";
import UploadDropZone from "@rpldy/upload-drop-zone";

const App = () => (
    <Uploady destination={destination}>
        <UploadDropZone onDragOverClassName="drag-over"
                        grouped={grouped}
                        maxGroupSize={groupSize}>
            <span>Drag&Drop File(s) Here</span>            
        </UploadDropZone>
    </Uploady>);
