import * as filestack from 'filestack-js';
const client = filestack.init('apikey');
<script src="//static.filestackapi.com/filestack-js/{MAJOR_VERSION}.x.x/filestack.min.js" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script>
const client = filestack.init('apikey');
</script>
where {MAJOR_VERSION}
is one of the MAJOR versions of the filestack-js ie:
<script src="//static.filestackapi.com/filestack-js/3.x.x/filestack.min.js" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script>
const client = filestack.init('apikey');
</script>
Subresource Integrity (SRI) is a security feature that enables browsers to verify that files they fetch (for example, from a CDN) are delivered without unexpected manipulation. It works by allowing you to provide a cryptographic hash that a fetched file must match
To obtain sri hashes for filestack-js library check manifest.json file on CDN:
https://static.filestackapi.com/filestack-js/{LIBRARY_VERSION}/manifest.json
<script src="//static.filestackapi.com/filestack-js/{LIBRARY_VERSION}/filestack.min.js.gz" integrity="{FILE_HASH}" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
Where {LIBRARY_VERSION}
is currently used library version and {FILE_HASH}
is one of the hashes from integrity field in manifest.json file
const client = require('filestack-js').init('apikey');
The package.json
specifies two separate modules:
main
for the CommonJS module (intended for Node runtimes)browser
for the pre-bundled ES module (intended for browser runtimes)Node projects which depend on filestack-js will follow the main
field in package.json
. When building for the browser, newer tools (like Webpack, Rollup, and Parcel) follow the browser
field, which will resolve to the pre-bundled ES module. Both modules follow the same API, but some methods behave differently based on their runtime. For example, client.upload
treats the file argument as a file path in Node but in browsers it assumes a Blob object.
The pre-bundled browser module is also available in UMD format. This is useful if you are using script tags on a web page instead of bundling your application. It can be retrieved from both the Filestack CDN and the unpkg CDN:
Major releases will bo listed (with detailed examples) in releases folder starting from version 3.0.0
Upload image
Multiupload
Open picker
Open picker in inline mode
Crop images
Multiple drop panes
Preview
Import using RequireJS
Retrieve image data
Transform image
Custom Picker CSS
Assign file to user
Examples can be run locally with:
npm run examples
If you are here to use the picker widget, it can be initialized from the Filestack client by calling client.picker(options)
. Options for the picker are documented here.
The picker instance returned from client.picker
can be controlled with a few methods:
displayMode
.Please see our examples above to learn more about customizing the picker for your use case.
If you target IE11 or iOS before 8.0 you will need to add additional polyfills to your page or application. (We are no longer support IE11 and older browser, so it can stop working on this browser)
Polyfills we recommend:**
Module (for bundling):
Script (for script tag):
Most tests in this library are expected to interface with actual backend services. Because we like to run tests during development, these services are mocked during unit testing.
All tests are using Jest.
To run units:
npm test
Filestack-js uses debug
, so just run with environmental variable DEBUG
set to fs.*
.
DEBUG=fs.* node example_upload.js
Debug's enable state is persisted by localStorage
localStorage.debug = 'fs:*'
And then refresh the page.
The upload.error
event was added to sdk. To obtain every upload request error just add callback to it.
Error contains details field with responseBody, responseHeaders, code (only when error type is FilestackErrorType.REQUEST)
<script>
const client = filestack.init('apikey');
client.on('upload.error', (filestackError) => {
console.log(filestackError);
});
</script>
Upload abort throws an FilestackError
with type FilestackErrorType.ABORTED
If you're using Sentry to monitor your application, Filestack will automatically report upload errors to Sentry, and tag them with helpful diagnostic information via @sentry/minimal
.
We use SemVer for versioning. For the versions available, see the tags on this repository.
We follow the conventional commits specification to ensure consistent commit messages and changelog formatting.
