Short summary

      💾 Data file size has no limits. (Except the hard disk size)
      ☎ Call easily a callback after uploading is finished.
      📤 Upload files using flow.js
      📦 All JS and CSS bundled with the package. No need for network calls for CSS/JS.
      ✅ Works with Dash 1.1.0.+ & Python 3.6+. (Possibly with other versions, too)

dash-uploader vs. dcc.Upload

Installing

pip install dash-uploader

Quickstart

Full documentation here

⚠️Security note: The Upload component allows POST requests and uploads of arbitrary files to the server harddisk and one should take this into account (with user token checking etc.) if used as part of a public website! For this you can utilize the http_request_handler argument of the du.configure_upload. (New in version 0.5.0)

Simple example

import dash
import dash_html_components as html
import dash_uploader as du

app = dash.Dash(__name__)

# 1) configure the upload folder
du.configure_upload(app, r"C:\tmp\Uploads")

# 2) Use the Upload component
app.layout = html.Div([
    du.Upload(),
])

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run_server(debug=True)

Example with callback (and other options)

• New in version 0.7.0: Functions decorated with @du.callback must take status (du.UploadStatus) object as the only input parameter (previously, filenames)

from pathlib import Path
import uuid

import dash_uploader as du
import dash
import dash_html_components as html
from dash.dependencies import Input, Output, State

app = dash.Dash(__name__)

UPLOAD_FOLDER_ROOT = r"C:\tmp\Uploads"
du.configure_upload(app, UPLOAD_FOLDER_ROOT)

def get_upload_component(id):
    return du.Upload(
        id=id,
        max_file_size=1800,  # 1800 MB
        filetypes=['csv', 'zip'],
        upload_id=uuid.uuid1(),  # Unique session id
    )

def get_app_layout():

    return html.Div(
        [
            html.H1('Demo'),
            html.Div(
                [
                    get_upload_component(id='dash-uploader'),
                    html.Div(id='callback-output'),
                ],
                style={  # wrapper div style
                    'textAlign': 'center',
                    'width': '600px',
                    'padding': '10px',
                    'display': 'inline-block'
                }),
        ],
        style={
            'textAlign': 'center',
        },
    )

# get_app_layout is a function
# This way we can use unique session id's as upload_id's
app.layout = get_app_layout

@du.callback(
    output=Output("callback-output", "children"),
    id="dash-uploader",
)
def callback_on_completion(status: du.UploadStatus):
    return html.Ul([html.Li(str(x)) for x in status.uploaded_files])

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run_server(debug=True)
