Files component

The files component renders a complete and functional user interface for a Weavy Files app with uploading, sharing, previewing and downloading of files.

Element: <wy-files>
Class: WyFiles

Usage

First import and configure Weavy and the WyFiles component.

import { Weavy, WyFiles } from "@weavy/uikit-web";

const weavy = new Weavy();
weavy.url = "https://myenvironment.weavy.io";
weavy.tokenFactory = async (refresh) => "token_from_server";

Then add the <wy-files> component to your HTML. Since it is a contextual app you must specify the uid property. The corresponding app will be created automatically on the server when a new uid is defined.

You can also adjust permissions and details for the app using the Apps API.

<wy-files uid="customer-2-files"></wy-files>

Note: The unique ids (uid) used when creating apps, users etc. is something you decide what it should be. Since the apps are contextual, the uid is often related to the context it's in. For example "product-123-chat", "customer-2-files" etc.

Properties

Property	Type	Default	Description
`uid`	`string`		Unique identifier for the Files app to load
`features`	`FeaturesConfigType`	`{}`	Overrides the default features available for the product
`submodals`	`boolean`	`false`	Enables modal compatibility with other modals, backdrops and focus-traps. Note that it may have implications with layout (such as z-index effects) in your app.

The available features are controlled by your product license. The features config is opt-out, meaning you can disable available features, but never enable features that are not included in your license.
