import { DropzoneConfigInterface } from 'angular2-dropzone-wrapper';
 
const DROPZONE_CONFIG: DropzoneConfigInterface = {
  // Change this to your upload POST address:
  server: 'https://httpbin.org/post',
  maxFilesize: 50,
  acceptedFiles: 'image/*'
};
 
@NgModule({
  ...
  imports: [
    ...
    DropzoneModule.forRoot(DROPZONE_CONFIG)
  ]
})

Use it in your html template (with custom configuration):

This library provides two ways to create a Dropzone element, simple component and custom directive.

COMPONENT USAGE

Simply replace the element that would oridinarily be passed to Dropzone with the dropzone component.

<dropzone [config]="config" [message]="'Click or drag images here to upload'" (error)="onUploadError($event)" (success)="onUploadSuccess($event)"></dropzone>

[config]          // Custom config to override the global defaults.
[message]         // Message to show for the user on the upload area.
[placeholder]     // Placeholder image to be shown as the upload area.
 
(error)           // Event handler for the dropzone upload error event.
(success)         // Event handler for the dropzone upload success event.
(canceled)        // Event handler for the dropzone upload canceled event.

DIRECTIVE USAGE

When using only the directive you need to provide your own theming or import the default theme:

@import 'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/dropzone/4.3.0/dropzone.min.css';

Dropzone directive can be used with form or div element with optional custom configuration:

<div [dropzone]="config" (error)="onUploadError($event)" (success)="onUploadSuccess($event)"></div>

[dropzone]        // Can be used to provide optional custom config.
 
(error)           // Event handler for the dropzone upload error event.
(success)         // Event handler for the dropzone upload success event.
(canceled)        // Event handler for the dropzone upload canceled event.

Available configuration options (custom / global configuration):

This library supports all Dropzone configuration options and few custom extra options for easier usage.
