Import medias easily and as the most secure way as possible.

Description

This library is used to easily, and securely, create one or more file selection inputs. It is possible to configure according to our wishes such as, for example, specifying the type of authorized file (.pdf, .png ...) The library takes care of all the security aspect, that is to say the verification of the metadata of the selected file to ensure the authenticity of the latter.

Get started

npm i media-selector

Include HTML

To start well include the following html. This permit to media-selector to focus your media input file.

<div class="media-selector--upload-btn-wrapper">
    <button class="media-selector--upload-btn">
        <label>Select a file</label>
    </button>
    <input type="file" class="media-selector--input-file" accept="*" />
</div>

By default the file button is stylized. To restyled, just add custom classes or only add the following html :

<input type="file" class="media-selector--input-file" accept="*" />

Include JS

Import library :

import MediaSelector from 'media-selector';

or :

const MediaSelector = require('media-selector');

Then, you can configure according to your wishes.

Here are the available configuration options :

  • is a number

• maxSize

  • maximum authorized file size (Byte)
  • is a number

• formatError

  • is a function

• minSizeError

  • callback if the file size is too small
  • is a function

MediaSelector({
    // authorized formats
    formats: ["PNG", "JPEG"],
    // min size
    minSize: 2,
    // max size
    maxSize: 20000000,
    formatError: function(){
        /**
         * callback if file format unauthorized
         */
        console.log("format error");
    },
    minSizeError: function(){
        /**
         * callback if max file size too small
         */
        console.log("minSize error");
    },
    maxSizeError: function(){
        /**
         * callback if max file size exceeded
         */
        console.log("maxSize error");
    }
}, function(data){
    /**
     *  callback if success
     * 
     *  data is an object that contain file infos. Ex :
     *  {

     *      extension : "png"
     *  } 
     */
    console.log("success, file uploaded", data);
});
