React.js usage

This example is for the front-end UI only. The server side methods and publications are the same.

Brief:

In this example two components is used. First - to handle the uploads, adds a file input box and progress bar. Second - to show the file details (FileIndividualFile.js).

• The individual file component allows to delete, rename, and view the files. Twitter Bootstrap is used for styling;
• Tested with Meteor@1.6.1 and React16;
• Uses the latest withTracker access the meteor data.
• Uses React Component (rather than deprecated createClass)

Assumptions

• You have Meteor methods for RemoveFile and RenameFile
• You have a publication called files.all which is a FilesCollection, declared something like this:

import { FilesCollection } from 'meteor/ostrio:files';

export const UserFiles = new FilesCollection({collectionName: 'userfiles'});
// optionally attach a schema
UserFiles.attachSchema(FilesCollection.schema);

FileUpload.js:

import { withTracker } from 'meteor/react-meteor-data';
import { Meteor } from 'meteor/meteor';
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';

import IndividualFile from './FileIndividualFile.js';

const debug = require('debug')('demo:file');

class FileUploadComponent extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);

    this.state = {
      uploading: [],
      progress: 0,
      inProgress: false
    };

    this.uploadIt = this.uploadIt.bind(this);
  }

  uploadIt(e) {
    e.preventDefault();

    let self = this;

    if (e.currentTarget.files && e.currentTarget.files[0]) {
      // We upload only one file, in case
      // there was multiple files selected
      var file = e.currentTarget.files[0];

      if (file) {
        let uploadInstance = UserFiles.insert({
          file: file,
          meta: {
            locator: self.props.fileLocator,
            userId: Meteor.userId() // Optional, used to check on server for file tampering
          },
          chunkSize: 'dynamic',
          allowWebWorkers: true // If you see issues with uploads, change this to false
        }, false)

        self.setState({
          uploading: uploadInstance, // Keep track of this instance to use below
          inProgress: true // Show the progress bar now
        });

        // These are the event functions, don't need most of them, it shows where we are in the process
        uploadInstance.on('start', function () {
          console.log('Starting');
        })

        uploadInstance.on('end', function (error, fileObj) {
          console.log('On end File Object: ', fileObj);
        })

        uploadInstance.on('uploaded', function (error, fileObj) {
          console.log('uploaded: ', fileObj);

          // Remove the filename from the upload box
          self.refs['fileinput'].value = '';

          // Reset our state for the next file
          self.setState({
            uploading: [],
            progress: 0,
            inProgress: false
          });
        })

        uploadInstance.on('error', function (error, fileObj) {
          console.log('Error during upload: ' + error)
        });

        uploadInstance.on('progress', function (progress, fileObj) {
          console.log('Upload Percentage: ' + progress)
          // Update our progress bar
          self.setState({
            progress: progress
          });
        });

        uploadInstance.start(); // Must manually start the upload
      }
    }
  }

  // This is our progress bar, bootstrap styled
  // Remove this function if not needed
  showUploads() {
    console.log('**********************************', this.state.uploading);
