[Announcement] Built-in file upload component released
Tewr opened this issue · 8 comments
📰 01.10.2020 Microsoft has finally released a built-in file upload component called InputFile. An 1st-party component strongly diminishes this component's raison d'etre, and I strongly recommend all new development to use the built-in component, and current users to migrate. The natural course of action is to stop actively developing this project. If you feel that this decision is somehow wrong, feel free to comment here to convince me otherwise.
This project should not be deprecated by MS inputFile because it's lacks of features compared to this library and MS have been very lazy implementing this feature since blazor exists. This is like comparing newtonsoft.json vs system.text.json. You know system.text.json lacks of tons of features and other things are not supported by default where newtonsoft.json are already builtin. Also you have already lots of samples of how to use, even drag and drop components and usage of them. I vote to not deprecate this project until MS inputFile is comparable near to this. I could suggest to create a new branch and use MS inputFile and see how easily and compatible it is with what you have implemented here.
I think for projects that must rely/stuck on .NET Core 3.1 there is a need for this particular component. Because the InputFile component is contained in .NET 5 only.

This is a solid reason to not deprecate this project.

.Net Core 3.1 is also LTS, so it will be used for a long time in production systems.
Hi,
This component is great and we've recently tried to use uploaders from SyncFusion for chunked, multiple and para uploads. It's not the best for Blazor even though many of their controls are great. Reason is it's complex to implement and maintain compared with yours and has several bugs.
If you could add chunked, para and some other more advanced features as above, plus progress bar and I'm sure the community will favor your control.
Also, the 3.1 comments are applicable.
@OliverPrivate as far I remember this library offers that out box, you can read any file as stream in chunks also with this option you can implement your own progress bar while reading the files in chunks.
@Tewr has already provide awesome examples even using a dropzone/dropbox with drag and drop options, it's fully featured already.
Thank you for your feedback. I'll continue working on this for the time being.
