@uppy/dropbox

@uppy/dropbox

The Dropbox plugin for Uppy lets users import files from their Dropbox account.

A Companion instance is required for the Dropbox plugin to work. Companion handles authentication with Dropbox, downloads files from Dropbox and uploads them to the destination. This saves the user bandwidth, especially helpful if they are on a mobile connection.

Uppy is being developed by the folks at Transloadit, a versatile file encoding service.

Example

import Uppy from '@uppy/core'
import Dropbox from '@uppy/dropbox'

const uppy = new Uppy()
uppy.use(Dropbox, {
  // Options
})

Installation

$ npm install @uppy/dropbox

We recommend installing from npm and then using a module bundler such as Webpack, Browserify or Rollup.js.

Alternatively, you can also use this plugin in a pre-built bundle from Transloadit’s CDN: Edgly. In that case Uppy will attach itself to the global window.Uppy object. See the main Uppy documentation for instructions.
