Angular-Meteor Dropzone

A DropzoneJS directive for angular all wrapped up for Meteor.

modified from meteor-dropzone.

Compatibility

Intended for versions of Meteor 1.0

Installation

    meteor add tgienger:angular-dropzone

Usage

Inject into your app:

angular.module('app', ['angular-meteor', 'ngDropzone']);

In your Angular Template you place the dropZone directive:

    <drop-zone options="dropzoneOptions"></drop-zone>

Options

In your controller, set the angular-dropzone options:

function Controller($scope) {
	$scope.dropzoneOptions = {
		...
	};
}

A full list of options can be found in the Dropzone documentation


Important: the URL option is required, however will default to 'file-upload' if you don't enter one. I included this for those, like me, who use collectionFS to upload to s3 and do not require a url.


Usage With collectionFS (angular-meteor)

// controllerAs: drop
function CollectionController($scope) {

	// CollectionFS collection
	var imageCollection = $meteor.collectionFS(Images, false);
	
	// Dropzone options for use without a url
	this.dropzoneOptions = {
		accept: (file, done) => {
			imageCollection.save(file).then(() => {
				done();
			});
		}
	};
}

html:

<drop-zone options="drop.dropzoneOptions"></drop-zone>

Like Meteor-Dropzone:

Or you can set the default options that every dropzone instance is instantiated with globally:

	Meteor.Dropzone.options.maxFiles = 4;

These will be overridden by any parameters set in the scope variable.
