uppy

A work in progress - nothing to see here.

Design Goals

  • Support for IE10+?? (decide what our entry level IE is, it's okay to have a cut-off if that results in a more focused higher quality codebase. older browsers will need to opt for our jquery-sdk)
  • Lightweight / easy on dependencies
  • tus.io enabled
  • ES6
  • Robust (retries / resumes for all the things), avoid showing 'weird errors'
  • Themable UI with a beautiful default
  • Compatible with React (Native)
  • Should work great on mobile
  • Small core, modular plugin architecture for everything: (modal / dragdrop / themes/ webcam / google drive / dropbox / etc)
  • Offering sugared shortcuts for novice users (presets)

Uppy Development

First clone and install the project:

git clone git@github.com:transloadit/uppy.git
cd uppy
npm install

Now to get a sandbox environment set up, type:

npm run preview

This will npm run build the project into ./build, and then serve that directory using a simple static http server.

Website Development

We keep the uppyjs.io website in ./website for now so it's very easy to keep docs & code in sync as we're still iterating at high velocity.

This site is built with hexo. And deployed onto GitHub pages (gh-pages branch is of the uppy repo is overrwitten at every deploy. Site content is written in Markdown format located in ./website/src. Pull requests welcome!

The website is currently a clone of Yuxi Evan You's Vue.js website (view license) - just so we can hit the ground rolling in terms of setting up Haxo etc. Obviously as soon as possible, we should start rolling out our own layout & content.

For local previews on localhost:4000 type:

make website-preview

To deploy your work type

make website-deploy

FAQ

What does Travis do?

Travis should:

  • check out code
  • build project
  • run unit tests
  • run acceptance tests
  • copy/install the built project into any examples/*/
  • deploy the examples to our hackathon S3 bucket in a folder named by branch (http://hackathon.transloadit.com/uppy/master/index.html), so we can all play with the current state of the project & examples per branch, without installing everything locally.
