What is Fusty-Flow.js ?

A JavaScript library which extends Flow.js and allows to use not resumable uploads for older browsers, such as IE7, IE8 and IE9.

This library is written in the same style as Flow.js and follows same api. This means that with minimal effort we can have both: awesome Flow.js features and support for older browsers.

How can I install it?

use bower:

    bower install fusty-flow.js#~1

use cdn, look for available packages at http://www.jsdelivr.com/?query=flow.js

or use git clone

    git clone https://github.com/flowjs/fusty-flow.js

How can I use it?

Same as Flow.js, except of calling Flow constructor we call fustyFlowFactory function. This function automatically checks if Flow.js is supported.

var uploader = fustyFlowFactory({
  target:'/api/photo/redeem-upload-token', 
  query:{upload_token:'my_token'}
});

uploader is going to be instance of Flow if it is supported, otherwise instance of FustyFlow will be returned.

Build

To create your own build, clone this repository and run grunt build.

Command will concat and minify flow.js, fusty-flow.js and fusty-flow-factory.js files. Look for fusty-flow.js and fusty-flow.min.js in build directory.

Minified library size is about 18kb, which is much less then other alternative libraries with IE7+ support.
