Examples

Media Capture

Use the capture prop to select and upload files from different environments and media types.

Note: This is not fully supported in all browsers.

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import {
  FileUploadList,
  FileUploadRoot,
  FileUploadTrigger,
} from "@/components/ui/file-upload"
import { HiCamera } from "react-icons/hi"

const Demo = () => {
  return (
    <FileUploadRoot capture="environment">
      <FileUploadTrigger asChild>
        <Button variant="outline" size="sm">
          <HiCamera /> Open Camera
        </Button>
      </FileUploadTrigger>
      <FileUploadList />
    </FileUploadRoot>
  )
}

Multiple Files

Upload multiple files at once by using the maxFiles prop.

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import {
  FileUploadList,
  FileUploadRoot,
  FileUploadTrigger,
} from "@/components/ui/file-upload"
import { HiUpload } from "react-icons/hi"

const Demo = () => {
  return (
    <FileUploadRoot maxFiles={5}>
      <FileUploadTrigger asChild>
        <Button variant="outline" size="sm">
          <HiUpload /> Upload file
        </Button>
      </FileUploadTrigger>
      <FileUploadList showSize clearable />
    </FileUploadRoot>
  )
}

Dropzone

Drop multiple files inside the dropzone and use the maxFiles prop to set the number of files that can be uploaded at once.

Drag and drop here to upload

.png, .jpg up to 5MB

import {
  FileUploadDropzone,
  FileUploadList,
  FileUploadRoot,
} from "@/components/ui/file-upload"

const Demo = () => {
  return (
    <FileUploadRoot maxW="xl" alignItems="stretch" maxFiles={10}>
      <FileUploadDropzone
        label="Drag and drop here to upload"
        description=".png, .jpg up to 5MB"
      />
      <FileUploadList />
    </FileUploadRoot>
  )
}

Input

Use the FileInput component to create a trigger that looks like a text input.

Upload file

import {
  FileInput,
  FileUploadLabel,
  FileUploadRoot,
} from "@/components/ui/file-upload"

const Demo = () => {
  return (
    <FileUploadRoot gap="1" maxWidth="300px">
      <FileUploadLabel>Upload file</FileUploadLabel>
      <FileInput />
    </FileUploadRoot>
  )
}

Clearable

Here's an example of a clearable file upload input.

Upload file

import { CloseButton } from "@/components/ui/close-button"
import {
  FileInput,
  FileUploadClearTrigger,
  FileUploadLabel,
  FileUploadRoot,
} from "@/components/ui/file-upload"
import { InputGroup } from "@/components/ui/input-group"
import { LuFileUp } from "react-icons/lu"

const Demo = () => {
  return (
    <FileUploadRoot gap="1" maxWidth="300px">
      <FileUploadLabel>Upload file</FileUploadLabel>
      <InputGroup
        w="full"
        startElement={<LuFileUp />}
        endElement={
          <FileUploadClearTrigger asChild>
            <CloseButton
              me="-1"
              size="xs"
              variant="plain"
              focusVisibleRing="inside"
              focusRingWidth="2px"
              pointerEvents="auto"
              color="fg.subtle"
            />
          </FileUploadClearTrigger>
        }
      >
        <FileInput />
      </InputGroup>
    </FileUploadRoot>
  )
}

Accepted Files

Define the accepted files for upload using the accept prop.

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import {
  FileUploadList,
  FileUploadRoot,
  FileUploadTrigger,
} from "@/components/ui/file-upload"
import { HiUpload } from "react-icons/hi"

const Demo = () => {
  return (
    <FileUploadRoot accept={["image/png"]}>
      <FileUploadTrigger asChild>
        <Button variant="outline" size="sm">
          <HiUpload /> Upload file
        </Button>
      </FileUploadTrigger>
      <FileUploadList />
    </FileUploadRoot>
  )
}
