Flutter File Uploader

License: MIT coverage

Features

This package use en_file_uploader and provides widgets for displaying and managing file uploads.

FileUploader is a widget that encapsulates the logic for adding and removing files to be uploaded. Each file can have its own IFileUploadHandler for customized uploads (More info about handlers here).

FileCard is a file upload widget agnostic of en_file_uploader, while FileUploadControllerProvider is a provider that encapsulates the business logic for uploading a file: status (loading,done,...), progress.

ProvidedFileCard combines FileCard with FileUploadControllerProvider.

Usage

If you want to focus solely on UI details, you can use FileUploader and ProvidedFileCard.

FileUploader handles the logic for adding and removing files to be uploaded. ProvidedFileCard displays the FileCard widget and manages the actions related to uploading, retrying, and removing individual files.

FileUploader
(
builder: (context, ref) {
// for each file a ref is created using the provided `IFileUploadHandler`.
// Here, a widget for managing file uploads should be inserted.
// ProvidedFileCard automatically provides complete file management and allows for graphical customization.
// To manage the upload while creating your own widget, use only FileUploadControllerProvider. For just the UI, use FileCard.
return ProvidedFileCard(
ref: ref,
content: Text("filename"),
);
},
onPressedAddFiles: () async {
// on tap add a list of files
},
onFileAdded: (file) async {
// for each file added create a custom `IFileUploadHandler`
},
onFileUploaded: (file) {
print("file uploaded ${file.id}");
},
onFileRemoved: (file) {
print("file removed ${file.id}");
},
placeholder: Text("add a file"),
)
,

Alternatively, in the FileUploader.builder callback you can create your custom widget using the ref parameter to manage uploading, retrying, and removing files. You can use FileCard as the base widget for displaying file upload details.

FileUploader
(
builder: (context, ref) {
// for each file a ref is created using the provided `IFileUploadHandler`.
// Here, a widget for managing file uploads should be inserted.

return MyCustomFileCard(
ref: ref,
);
},
onPressedAddFiles: () async {
// on tap add a list of files
},
onFileAdded: (file) async {
// for each file added create a custom `IFileUploadHandler`
// More info about handlers on [en_file_uploader](https://pub.dev/packages/en_file_uploader)
},
onFileUploaded: (file) {
print("file uploaded ${file.id}");
},
onFileRemoved: (file) {
print("file removed ${file.id}");
},
placeholder: Text("add a file"),
)
,

Examples

In the example project, you can see some uses of en_file_uploader and flutter_file_uploader.


In the handlers folder, there are some IFileUploadHandler for simulating file uploads.

In the examples folder, you can find practical uses:

  • default: The simplest case that uses FileUploader and ProvidedFileCard;
  • default_restorable_chunked: Same as default but using a different handler: InMemoryRestorableChunkedFileUploadHandler;
  • self_ref_management: Custom file upload state management (no ProvidedFileCard).
