`
add Ng4FilesModule to your module imports section
`typescript

`
component template:
Upload by click:
`html
Click me to upload
`
Upload with drag'n'drop:
`html
{{selectedFiles}}
`
component ts:
`typescript
import {
Ng4FilesStatus,
Ng4FilesSelected
} from './ng4-files';
...
public selectedFiles;
public filesSelect(selectedFiles: Ng4FilesSelected): void {
if (selectedFiles.status !== Ng4FilesStatus.STATUS_SUCCESS) {
this.selectedFiles = selectedFiles.status;
return;
// Hnadle error statuses here
}
this.selectedFiles = Array.from(selectedFiles.files).map(file => file.name);

`
##Configure
To pass config to angular4-files-upload add following lines to you component.ts file:
$3
`typescript
import {
Ng4FilesService,
Ng4FilesConfig,
} from './ng4-files';
...
constructor(
private ng4FilesService: Ng4FilesService
) {}
private testConfig: Ng4FilesConfig = {
acceptExtensions: ['js', 'doc', 'mp4'],
maxFilesCount: 5,
maxFileSize: 5120000,
totalFilesSize: 10120000
};
ngOnInit() {
this.ng4FilesService.addConfig(this.testConfig);
}
`
$3
Config added this way
this.ng4FilesService.addConfig(this.testConfig);
is shared config. All components will use it.
But you can add multiple configs for your upload components.
Let's say, you have two upload components and you want to allow user upload just one video and 5(max) images.
To do this create 2 configs and pass it to upload components as named configs.
.ts
`typescript
import {
Ng4FilesService,
Ng4FilesConfig,
Ng4FilesStatus,
Ng4FilesSelected
} from './ng4-files';
...
public selectedFiles;
private configImage: Ng4FilesConfig = {
acceptExtensions: ['jpg', 'jpeg'],
maxFilesCount: 5,
totalFilesSize: 101200000
};
private configVideo: Ng4FilesConfig = {
acceptExtensions: ['mp4', 'avi'],
maxFilesCount: 1
};
constructor(
private ng4FilesService: Ng4FilesService
) {}
ngOnInit() {
this.ng4FilesService.addConfig(this.configImage, 'my-image-config');
this.ng4FilesService.addConfig(this.configVideo, 'my-video-config');
}
public filesSelect(selectedFiles: Ng4FilesSelected): void {
if (selectedFiles.status !== Ng4FilesStatus.STATUS_SUCCESS) {
this.selectedFiles = selectedFiles.status;
return;
}
// Handle error statuses here
this.selectedFiles = Array.from(selectedFiles.files).map(file => file.name);
}

API
$3
_acceptExtensions_
values: string[] or \'\*\'
examples: ['ts', 'spec.ts'], ['js'], '*'
_maxFilesCount_:
values: [number]
_maxFileSize:_
values: [number] (bytes)
_totalFilesSize:_
values: [number] (bytes)
$3
_filesSelect_
emit when files attached and pass Ng4FilesSelected object to YOUR_HANDLER:
`
export enum Ng4FilesStatus {
STATUS_SUCCESS,
STATUS_MAX_FILES_COUNT_EXCEED,
STATUS_MAX_FILE_SIZE_EXCEED,
STATUS_MAX_FILES_TOTAL_SIZE_EXCEED,
STATUS_NOT_MATCH_EXTENSIONS
}
export interface Ng4FilesSelected {
status: Ng4FilesStatus;
files: File[];
}
`
_! Note on statuses STATUS_MAX_FILE_SIZE_EXCEED or STATUS_NOT_MATCH_EXTENSIONS you get files not passed validation, so you shouldn't filter it manually to find all invalid files._
_configId_
Pass your named config with configId
Caveat
Please don't use button tag in template inside ng4-files-click
Don't: `html
`
ng4-files-click content is wrapped in label tag, so prefer something like
``html
Give me file ^.^
`
```
