HTML DIR CONTENT

npm version CircleCI Coverage Status

(recursively) iterate directory entries in the browser (html5 File System API)

Install

In Node/Webpack environment:

    npm i html-dir-content
    OR
    yarn add html-dir-content

Directly in the browser:

    <script src="https://unpkg.com/html-dir-content/dist/html-dir-content.min.js"></script>

API

  • getFiles(item:DataTransferItem, options?: Options) : Promise<Array>

    Returns a promise of an array of files in case the provided item represents a directory and the FS API returns children files for it.

    • Options: Boolean | Object

      (In case of boolean value, it will be used for the recursive config)

      • recursive (default: false) - whether to recursively follow the dir structure
      • bail (default: 1000) - how many levels to follow recursively before bailing
      • withFullPath (default: false) - file names contain the full file path
  • getFilesFromDragEvent(evt: DragEvent, options?: Options)

    Returns a promise of an array of files for the given event. In case the event dataTransfer property contains file system entries and at least one of them is represents a directory and the FS API returns children files for it.

    • Options: Boolean | Object

      (In case of boolean value, it will be used for the recursive config)

      • recursive (default: false) - whether to recursively follow the dir structure
      • bail (default: 1000) - how many levels to follow recursively before bailing
      • withFullPath (default: false) - file names contain the full file path

note: The order of files returned is not guaranteed to be in same order the files on the file system are organized

note: Firefox will turn any path delimiter (/) in the File name property to ":" (when using 'withFullPath') :( - So in case you need to parse/save the path you can use the custom 'hdcFullPath' prop on the File object or replace the colons with slashes if needed.

Example

check out this codepen.

your HTML:

        <script src="<path-to-node_modules>/html-dir-content/dist/html-dir-content.min.js"></script>

your Javascript:


    window.addEventListener("drop", (e) => {
                e.preventDefault();

                htmlDirContent.getFilesFromDragEvent(e, true) //will perform recusrive traversal
                    .then((files) => {
                        console.log("we have the files: ", files);
                    });
            });

or with import/require:


    import {getFilesFromDragEvent} from "html-dir-content";
    .
    .
    .
    getFilesFromDragEvent(e, true)
        .then((files) => {

        });

You can drag a directory (ex: from File Explorer / Finder) and the resolved files array will contain the files contained within it and its sub folders
