bwt-uploader

Polymer component that allows uploading of images and pdf files

[ This description is mirrored from README.md at github.com/bluewatertracks/bwt-uploader on 2019-05-10 ]

About

bwt-uploader is a file uploader with support for pdf files, jpeg, png and bmp images written in Polymer. It follows a plug and play model with a few configurations needed to enable certain features. It is partially inspired by the vaadin uploader and came out as a result of a component we built at Blue Water Tracks. Images are converted to base64 images which might increase the size of the file by a small percentage.

Features

• Simple Drag and Drop along with browse option
• Ability to upload images and pdf files
• Down sample and resize images (optional)
• Ability to upload pdf files
• Preview of pdf and image files (just the first page in case of pdf files)
• Progress Bar
• Configurable AJAX options as well as ability to insert extra fields into the upload object
• Ability to skip downsampling of image
• Configurable maximum file size
• Customizable CSS and shape of preview area

Installation

To install bower install bwt-uploader

To run the code, head into the component's folder and run polymer serve
