stimulus-use VS dropzone

You can see that I added a dependency here: stimulus-use.

“stimulus-use: Add composable behaviors to your Stimulus controllers, like debouncing, detecting outside clicks and many other things.

Actually, Stimulus is pretty cool because you can compose multiple pre-built behaviors into one Stimulus controller, for a sort of functional approach to component behaviors. The tradeoff is that a growing web of Stimulus controllers (plus HTML data attributes associated with them) can become complex and hard to understand.

The stimulus-use project is a collection of reusable behaviors for Stimulus. If you are familiar with React, this project is similar to React’s hooks system, but for Stimulus controllers.

To make using the IntersectionObserver API easier, we will add the wonderful stimulus-use package to our application. This is not a requirement, but it does simplify the code a bit.

Finally, as we recently added the Stimulus-Use library to our project, we made sure to upgrade it to current beta which supports Stimulus 3.

As you’ll see below, I am importing useClickOutside from stimulus-use, it’s a great library with small, composable helpers, I urge you to check it out!

For example, we have a few ”live search“ fields, backed by back-end Fetch requests, on some pages. The live search function was usually triggered by the keyup event and Cuprite was such a fast typewriter that it frequently sent multiple requests almost at once. If some of the responses got a bit late or out of sync, the front-end JavaScript code began hitting issues. We solved this by adopting a technique called debouncing and, frankly, we should have done this since the beginning. By the way, we used the useDebounce module from the marvelous Stimulus-use library to achieve this.

Or roll your own and use something like DropZone.

Just two example libraries: FilePond, DropZone

Here, we will see laravel 8 dropzone multiple files upload, So I will teach you to upload files using dropzone js in laravel 8, Dropzone is a javascript jquery plugin, using dropzone.js we can select one by one image with preview. After choosing an image from browse we can see the preview of the image. dropzone.js also provide filter like we can make validation for max upload, a specific image, or file extension like png, jpg, GIF, etc.

We use Dropzone JS to support uploading files. Under Cuprite, uploading stopped working and an ERR_ACCESS_DENIED error was shown in the JavaScript console each time a test attempted to upload a file.

In standard HTML5 you can perform file uploads through . Additionally there are packages like dropzone and react-dropzone that can handle this task very well. However, inspired in the last ones, there was created something new and more powerful: dropzone-ui.

Hello guys it's been a minute! I was on a small break but now am back and in this tutorial we are going to learn how we can upload multiple images to a Django back end. By default the Django behavior is that you select a single image and upload it to the server then repeat which begs the question isn't that a time consuming and tedious process, say if we have 1000 images? It is. Fortunately, there is a tool that can help us go around this problem, a JavaScript library called Dropzone . Let's not waste more seconds, let's get into it!

Dropzone allows you implement “drag and drop” features on your website. It is also highly customizable with custom code. It’s lightweight, doesn’t depend on any other library (like jQuery).
