What is @uppy/status-bar?
@uppy/status-bar is a plugin for the Uppy file uploader that provides a status bar to show upload progress, pause/resume functionality, and error handling. It integrates seamlessly with Uppy to give users a visual representation of their file upload status.
What are @uppy/status-bar's main functionalities?
Basic Setup
This code demonstrates how to set up the @uppy/status-bar plugin with Uppy. It initializes Uppy and uses the StatusBar plugin, attaching it to the body of the document and configuring it to hide after the upload is finished.
const Uppy = require('@uppy/core');
const StatusBar = require('@uppy/status-bar');
const uppy = Uppy();
uppy.use(StatusBar, {
target: 'body',
hideAfterFinish: true
});
Customizing Status Bar
This code shows how to customize the status bar by changing its target element, keeping it visible after the upload is finished, and showing detailed progress information.
const Uppy = require('@uppy/core');
const StatusBar = require('@uppy/status-bar');
const uppy = Uppy();
uppy.use(StatusBar, {
target: '#upload-status',
hideAfterFinish: false,
showProgressDetails: true
});
Handling Upload Events
This code demonstrates how to handle upload events such as 'upload-success' and 'upload-error' with Uppy and the StatusBar plugin. It logs the results of successful uploads and errors to the console.
const Uppy = require('@uppy/core');
const StatusBar = require('@uppy/status-bar');
const uppy = Uppy();
uppy.use(StatusBar, {
target: 'body'
});
uppy.on('upload-success', (file, response) => {
console.log('Upload successful:', file, response);
});
uppy.on('upload-error', (file, error) => {
console.error('Upload error:', file, error);
});
Other packages similar to @uppy/status-bar
react-dropzone
react-dropzone is a simple React component for creating file drop zones. It provides basic file upload functionality but lacks the built-in status bar and progress tracking features of @uppy/status-bar. It is more suitable for simple use cases where a full-featured upload interface is not required.
fine-uploader
fine-uploader is a comprehensive JavaScript library for file uploads. It provides a wide range of features, including progress bars, retry functionality, and chunked uploads. However, it is not as modular or easy to integrate with modern frameworks as Uppy and its plugins.
@uppy/status-bar
The status-bar shows upload progress and speed, ETAs, pre- and post-processing information, and allows users to control (pause/resume/cancel) the upload.
Best used together with a simple file source plugin, such as @uppy/file-input or @uppy/drag-drop, or a custom implementation. It is also included in the @uppy/dashboard plugin.
Uppy is being developed by the folks at Transloadit, a versatile file encoding service.
Example
const Uppy = require('@uppy/core')
const StatusBar = require('@uppy/status-bar')
const uppy = new Uppy()
uppy.use(StatusBar, {
target: 'body',
hideUploadButton: false,
showProgressDetails: false,
hideAfterFinish: true
})
Installation
$ npm install @uppy/status-bar
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.
