DropzoneJS's CSS and Javascript files are bundled in the global plugin bundles and globally included in all pages:
<link href="assets/plugins/global/plugins.bundle.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
<script src="assets/plugins/global/plugins.bundle.js"></script>

Initialization

  • DropzoneJS CSS is highly customized in sass/vendors/plugins/_dropzone.scssSCSS file in order to use it as native component within the design system. The SCSS code is compiled into assets/plugins/global/plugins.bundle.cssand globally included in all pages.
  • DropzoneJS Javascript is globally initialized with some predefined settings in src/js/vendors/plugins/dropzone.init.jsand the initialization code is bundled within assets/plugins/global/plugins.bundle.jsand globally included in all pages.

Basic Example

DropzoneJS example with manual file attachment and upload controls.

Drop files here or click to upload.

Upload up to 10 files
var myDropzone = new Dropzone("#kt_dropzonejs_example_1", {
    url: "https://keenthemes.com/scripts/void.php", // Set the url for your upload script location
    paramName: "file", // The name that will be used to transfer the file
    maxFiles: 10,
    maxFilesize: 10, // MB
    addRemoveLinks: true,
    accept: function(file, done) {
        if (file.name == "wow.jpg") {
            done("Naha, you don't.");
        } else {
            done();
        }
    }
});
