|

|
|
|
+import { DragDrop, Tus10 } from './src/plugins';

## Core
|
|
|
|
|
|
-1. The core function `transloadit` accepts `options` and exposes methods like `.use` for adding plugins and `.set` for setting options.
|
|
|
-2. Each plugin is then called by the `use` with given `options` as an argument.
|
|
|
-3. The result is passed from the plugin to `prepareMedia` for some final processing
|
|
|
-4. Then the processed files go into `upload` which uploads everything to Transloadit servers, using `tus`.
|
|
|
+1. Core class `Uppy` accepts global object `options`, and exposes methods like `.use` for adding plugins and `.set` for setting options.
|
|
|
+2. We create a new instance of `Uppy` and call `.use` methods on that, passing the plugins and their options.
|
|
|
+3. Plugins have types: `presetter`, `selecter` and `uploader` (more types could be added in the future). When `use` is called, each plugin’s `run` method is added to an array of corresponding types, `methods`.
|
|
|
+4. Ok, here is the tricky part. Core’s method `run` iterates over plugin types in a waterfall manner — each `runTypes` runs its `method`s in parallel and returns an array of results (files) to the next plugin type in the waterfall:

-3. In `transloadit-js` everything is a plugin: a `Modal` dialog, `Drag & Drop`, `Instagram`. We borrow general approach from the new Babel and PostCSS — almost barebones by default, each chunk of functionality exists as separate plugin — easier to pick and choose exactly what you need to get a lightweight solution for production, while also easier to develop and avoid merge conflicts.

-4. Presets should exist with basic plugins like `Modal` & `Drag & Drop`. This should let people who just want to get it working as quickly as possible get started in seconds:
|

|
- ```javascript
|
|
|
- transloadit
|
|

- .set({ wait: true })

- .use(transloaditBasic, {some: 'config'})

- or just make it a code sample for easy copy/pasting and future customizations (no need to change the main function call, just add/remove lines to modify behaviour):

|
- transloadit
|
|
|
- .set({ wait: true })
|
|

- .use(transloaditModal, {some: 'config'})

+uppyDist

|
+ .set({ wait: true })
|
|
|
+ .run();

|

|
5. Users should be able to set themes and style settings in config: `.use(myTheme)`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. Would be cool if you could use whatever drag & drop library you wanted (DropZone) with our wrapper.
