## Quick start



1. A recommended way to install ***ng2-file-upload*** is through [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=ng2-file-upload) package manager using the following command:



  `npm i ng2-file-upload`



  Alternatively, you can [download it in a ZIP file](https://github.com/valor-software/ng2-file-upload/archive/master.zip).



2. Currently `ng2-file-upload` contains two directives: `ng2-file-select` and `ng2-file-drop`. `ng2-file-select` is used for 'file-input' field of form and

  `ng2-file-drop` is used for area that will be used for dropping of file or files.



3. More information regarding using of ***ng2-file-upload*** is located in

  [demo](http://valor-software.github.io/ng2-file-upload/) and [demo sources](https://github.com/valor-software/ng2-file-upload/tree/master/demo).



## Using ***ng2-file-upload*** in a project



1. Install as shown in the above section.



2. Import `FileUploadModule` into the module that declares the component using ***ng2-file-upload***:



```import { FileUploadModule } from 'ng2-file-upload';```



3. Add it to `[imports]` under `@NgModule`:



```imports: [ ... FileUploadModule, ... ]```



4. Import `FileUploader` into the component:



```import {  FileUploader } from 'ng2-file-upload';```



5. Create a variable for the API url:



```const URL = 'path_to_api';```



6. Initialize it:



```public uploader:FileUploader = new FileUploader({url: URL}); ```



## API for `ng2FileSelect`



### Properties



  - `uploader` - (`FileUploader`) - uploader object. See using in [demo](https://github.com/valor-software/ng2-file-upload/blob/master/demo/components/file-upload/simple-demo.ts)



### Events

 - `onFileSelected` - fires when files are selected and added to the uploader queue



## API for `ng2FileDrop`



### Properties



  - `uploader` - (`FileUploader`) - uploader object. See using in [demo](https://github.com/valor-software/ng2-file-upload/blob/master/demo/components/file-upload/simple-demo.ts)



  Parameters supported by this object:



  1. `url` - URL of File Uploader's route

  2. `authToken` - Auth token that will be applied as 'Authorization' header during file send.

  3. `disableMultipart` - If 'true', disable using a multipart form for file upload and instead stream the file. Some APIs (e.g. Amazon S3) may expect the file to be streamed rather than sent via a form. Defaults to false.

  4. `itemAlias` - item alias (form name redefinition)

  5. `formatDataFunction` - Function to modify the request body. 'DisableMultipart' must be 'true' for this function to be called.

  6. `formatDataFunctionIsAsync` - Informs if the function sent in 'formatDataFunction' is asynchronous. Defaults to false.

  7. `parametersBeforeFiles` - States if additional parameters should be appended before or after the file. Defaults to false.



### Events



  - `fileOver` - it fires during 'over' and 'out' events for Drop Area; returns `boolean`: `true` if file is over Drop Area, `false` in case of out.

  See using in [ts demo](https://github.com/valor-software/ng2-file-upload/blob/master/demo/components/file-upload/simple-demo.ts) and

  [html demo](https://github.com/valor-software/ng2-file-upload/blob/master/demo/components/file-upload/simple-demo.html)

  - `onFileDrop` - it fires after a file has been dropped on a Drop Area; you can pass in `$event` to get the list of files that were dropped. i.e. `(onFileDrop)="dropped($event)"`
