ng-flow

What is ng-flow?
============

Flow.js extensions for angular.js framework, no 3rd party JS dependencies required!

ng-flow extension is based on Flow.js library.

Demo: http://flowjs.github.io/ng-flow/

How can I install it?
============
1) Get the library:

Direct Download
Download a latest build from https://github.com/flowjs/ng-flow/releases
it contains development and minified production files in dist/ directory,
they are also concatenated with core flow.js library.

Using Bower

bower install ng-flow#~2

Git Clone

git clone https://github.com/flowjs/ng-flow

Using Yeoman

bower install "ng-flow#~2" --save
grunt bower-install

2) Add the module to your app as a dependency:

angular.module('app', ['flow'])

How can I use it?
============

First of all wrap places there you are going to use Flow.js
```html



``

This directive is going to add $flow variable to current scope.
Also directive can be nested, because $flow variable is going to be overridden.
$flow is instance of Flow.


Secondly you need to assign some upload buttons:
``html


``

First button is for normal uploads and second is for directory uploads.


Now you need to display uploaded files, all you need to do is to loop files array.
Files array is attached to flow object named $flow.
``html

{{$index+1}}
{{file.name}}

``

file is instance of FlowFile.


How can I drop files?
============

Use flow-drop directive:
``html



``

$3

Use flow-prevent-drop directive on body element:
``html


``

$3


Use flow-drag-enter directive:
``html

ng-style="style">

``
Note: flow-drag-leave attribute can't be used alone, it is a part of flow-drag-enter directive.

$3

``html

Drag And Drop your file here

``
See example at samples/dataurl/.

How can I preview uploaded image?
============

Use flow-img directive:
``html

``

Image will be automatically updated once file is added. No need to start upload.


How can I set options for flow.js?
============

Use config:
``javascript
var app = angular.module('app', ['flow'])
.config(['flowFactoryProvider', function (flowFactoryProvider) {
flowFactoryProvider.defaults = {
target: '/upload',
permanentErrors:[404, 500, 501],
minFileSize: 0
};
// You can also set default events:
flowFactoryProvider.on('catchAll', function (event) {
...
});
// Can be used with different implementations of Flow.js
// flowFactoryProvider.factory = fustyFlowFactory;
}]);
``

also can be configured on "flow-init" directive:
``html



``

How can I catch events?
============

Events are listed inside flow-init directive:
``html



``

$3

If controller is on the same scope as flow-init directive or in a child scope,
then we can catch events with $on. Events are prefixed with flow::.
``javascript
$scope.$on('flow::fileAdded', function (event, $flow, flowFile) {
event.preventDefault();//prevent file from uploading
});
``
second argument is always a flow instance and then follows event specific arguments.

How can I assign flow to a parent scope?
============

Use flow-name attribute and set it to any variable in the scope.
``html



``

How can I support older browsers?
============
Go to https://github.com/flowjs/fusty-flow.js
and add to your config:
``javascript
var app = angular.module('app', ['flow'])
.config(['flowFactoryProvider', function (flowFactoryProvider) {
flowFactoryProvider.factory = fustyFlowFactory;
}]);
```

Need example?
============
Clone this repository and go to "ng-flow/samples/basic/index.html".
Single image upload "ng-flow/samples/image/index.html".

============
To ensure consistency throughout the source code, keep these rules in mind as you are working:

* All features or bug fixes must be tested by one or more specs.

* With the exceptions listed below, we follow the rules contained in Google's JavaScript Style Guide:

* Wrap all code at 100 characters.

* Instead of complex inheritance hierarchies, we prefer simple objects. We use prototypical
inheritance only when absolutely necessary.
