[Dropzone] Missing documentation

Open RikudouSage opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

There's missing documentation to do pretty much anything, like how to configure some more advanced things, like upload progress etc.

Is there any such documentation planned? And can someone point me in the right direction regarding accessing the underlying js dropzone instance?

The problem is that the Dropzone component is poorly named :/. It actually has nothing to do with the Dropzone JavaScript library, which admit is a bummer :/. The Dropzone component in its current form is just a "stylized area where you can drop files" and then, with a tiny bit of js, see a preview after dropping. It's nice, but I think many/most people see this component and expect it to be an integration with Dropzone.js... which is confusing and disappointing.

We need to make it VERY clear what Dropzone is & isn't. And, honestly, I haven't thought about it much, but we should perhaps add true Dropzone.js support (or some similar library).

Friendly ping? Should this still be open? I will close if I don't hear anything.
