- # @wcstack/upload
2
-
3
- `@wcstack/upload` is a declarative file upload component for the wcstack ecosystem.
4
-
5
- It is not a visible UI widget.
6
- It is a hidden **upload I/O node** that turns file upload into bindable state.
7
-
8
- With `@wcstack/state`, `<wcs-upload>` exposes a small async state surface:
9
-
10
- - input / command surface: `files`, `trigger`
11
- - configuration surface: `url`, `method`, `field-name`, `accept`, `max-size`, `manual`, `multiple`
12
- - output state surface: `value`, `loading`, `progress`, `error`, `status`
13
-
14
- This means file upload can be expressed as state transitions and DOM bindings instead of ad-hoc `XMLHttpRequest` glue code.
15
-
16
- `@wcstack/upload` follows the same HAWC-style split as other wcstack I/O packages:
17
-
18
- - **Core** (`UploadCore`) handles XHR upload, progress tracking, abort, and async state
19
- - **Shell** (`<wcs-upload>`) exposes that state as a custom element and `wc-bindable` surface
20
- - frameworks and binding systems consume it through `wc-bindable-protocol`
21
-
22
- ## Why this exists
23
-
24
- File upload usually spreads across too many places:
25
-
26
- - file input handling
27
- - `FormData` creation
28
- - progress events
29
- - loading flags
30
- - error handling
31
- - abort on disconnect
32
-
33
- `@wcstack/upload` moves that logic into a reusable component and exposes the result as bindable state.
34
-
35
- ## Install
36
-
37
- ```bash
38
- npm install @wcstack/upload
39
- ```
40
-
41
- ## Quick Start
42
-
43
- ### 1. Auto upload when files are assigned
44
-
45
- ```html
46
- <script type="module" src="https://esm.run/@wcstack/upload/auto"></script>
47
-
48
- <wcs-upload id="avatar-upload" url="/api/upload"></wcs-upload>
49
- <input id="avatar-input" type="file" accept="image/*">
50
-
51
- <script type="module">
52
- const upload = document.getElementById("avatar-upload");
53
- const input = document.getElementById("avatar-input");
54
-
55
- input.addEventListener("change", () => {
56
- upload.files = input.files;
57
- });
58
-
59
- upload.addEventListener("wcs-upload:progress", (event) => {
60
- console.log("progress", event.detail);
61
- });
62
-
63
- upload.addEventListener("wcs-upload:response", (event) => {
64
- console.log("uploaded", event.detail.value);
65
- });
66
- </script>
67
- ```
68
-
69
- Default behavior:
70
-
71
- - assigning `files` starts upload immediately
72
- - files are sent as `multipart/form-data`
73
- - request method defaults to `POST`
74
- - field name defaults to `file`
75
-
76
- ### 2. Manual upload with `trigger`
77
-
78
- Use `manual` when you want to choose files first and upload later.
79
-
80
- ```html
81
- <script type="module" src="https://esm.run/@wcstack/upload/auto"></script>
82
-
83
- <wcs-upload id="resume-upload" url="/api/upload" manual></wcs-upload>
84
-
85
- <input id="resume-input" type="file">
86
- <button id="resume-button">Upload</button>
87
-
88
- <script type="module">
89
- const upload = document.getElementById("resume-upload");
90
- const input = document.getElementById("resume-input");
91
- const button = document.getElementById("resume-button");
92
-
93
- input.addEventListener("change", () => {
94
- upload.files = input.files;
95
- });
96
-
97
- button.addEventListener("click", () => {
98
- upload.trigger = true;
99
- });
100
- </script>
101
- ```
102
-
103
- `trigger` is a one-way command surface:
104
-
105
- - writing `true` starts `upload()`
106
- - after completion it resets itself to `false`
107
- - that reset dispatches `wcs-upload:trigger-changed`
108
-
109
- ### 3. Declarative trigger target
110
-
111
- When auto trigger is enabled, a clickable element can point at a `<wcs-upload>` by id.
112
-
113
- ```html
114
- <script type="module" src="https://esm.run/@wcstack/upload/auto"></script>
115
-
116
- <wcs-upload id="photo-upload" url="/api/upload" manual></wcs-upload>
117
- <input id="photo-input" type="file">
118
- <button data-uploadtarget="photo-upload">Upload</button>
119
-
120
- <script type="module">
121
- const upload = document.getElementById("photo-upload");
122
- const input = document.getElementById("photo-input");
123
-
124
- input.addEventListener("change", () => {
125
- upload.files = input.files;
126
- });
127
- </script>
128
- ```
129
-
130
- By default, the trigger attribute is `data-uploadtarget`.
131
-
132
- ### 4. With `@wcstack/state`
133
-
134
- ```html
135
- <script type="module" src="https://esm.run/@wcstack/state/auto"></script>
136
- <script type="module" src="https://esm.run/@wcstack/upload/auto"></script>
137
-
138
- <wcs-state>
139
- <script type="module">
140
- export default {
141
- uploadResult: null,
142
- uploadLoading: false,
143
- uploadProgress: 0,
144
- uploadError: null,
145
- };
146
- </script>
147
-
148
- <wcs-upload
149
- id="state-upload"
150
- url="/api/upload"
151
- manual
152
- data-wcs="
153
- value: uploadResult;
154
- loading: uploadLoading;
155
- progress: uploadProgress;
156
- error: uploadError
157
- ">
158
- </wcs-upload>
159
-
160
- <input id="state-upload-input" type="file">
161
- <button data-uploadtarget="state-upload">Upload</button>
162
-
163
- <progress max="100" data-wcs="value: uploadProgress"></progress>
164
- <p data-wcs="textContent: uploadLoading"></p>
165
-
166
- <script type="module">
167
- const upload = document.getElementById("state-upload");
168
- const input = document.getElementById("state-upload-input");
169
-
170
- input.addEventListener("change", () => {
171
- upload.files = input.files;
172
- });
173
- </script>
174
- </wcs-state>
175
- ```
176
-
177
- In this setup, upload becomes a bindable async node:
178
-
179
- - the element performs the request
180
- - async state flows back as `value`, `loading`, `progress`, `error`, `status`
181
- - the UI binds to those paths declaratively
182

198
- | `value` | `any` | `null` | Parsed response body or response text |
199
- | `loading` | `boolean` | `false` | Upload state flag |
200
- | `progress` | `number` | `0` | Upload progress from `0` to `100` |
201

204
-
205
- ### Methods
206
-
207
- #### `upload()`
208
-
209
- Starts upload with the current `files` and returns a promise.
210
- Returns `null` when there are no files or validation fails.
211
-
212
- #### `abort()`
213
-
214
- Aborts the current request.
215
-
216
- ## Events
217
-
218
- | Event | `detail` | Description |
219
- |---|---|---|
220
- | `wcs-upload:files-changed` | `FileList \| File[] \| null` | Fired when `files` changes |
221
- | `wcs-upload:trigger-changed` | `boolean` | Fired when `trigger` resets to `false` |
222
- | `wcs-upload:loading-changed` | `boolean` | Fired when loading state changes |
223
- | `wcs-upload:progress` | `number` | Fired on upload progress updates |
224
- | `wcs-upload:error` | error object | Fired on validation, network, or HTTP error |
225
- | `wcs-upload:response` | `{ value, status }` | Fired on successful HTTP response |
226
-
227
- ## Validation
228
-
229
- `<wcs-upload>` validates files before sending:
230
-
231
- - `max-size` rejects files larger than the configured byte size
232
- - `accept` supports MIME types like `image/*`, exact MIME types like `application/pdf`, and extensions like `.pdf`
233
-
234
- Validation failure dispatches `wcs-upload:error` and the request is not started.
235
-
236
- ## wc-bindable surface
237
-
238
- `<wcs-upload>` exposes a `wcBindable` definition with these bindable properties:
239
-
240
- - `value`
241
- - `loading`
242
- - `progress`
243
- - `error`
244
- - `status`
245
- - `trigger`
246
- - `files`
247
-
248
- This makes the element consumable from wc-bindable-aware systems, including `@wcstack/state`.
249
-
250
- ## Headless API
251
-
252
- If you do not need the custom element shell, you can use `UploadCore` directly:
253
-
254
- ```ts
255
- import { UploadCore } from "@wcstack/upload";
256
-
257
- const core = new UploadCore();
258
- const result = await core.upload("/api/upload", files, {
259
- method: "PUT",
260
- fieldName: "attachment",
261
- headers: {
262
- Authorization: "Bearer token",
263
- },
264
- });
265
- ```
266
-
267
- `UploadCore` exposes the same async state as properties and dispatches the same events.
268
-
269
- ## Manual bootstrap
270
-
271
- ```ts
272
- import { bootstrapUpload } from "@wcstack/upload";
273
-
274
- bootstrapUpload({
275
- autoTrigger: true,
276
- triggerAttribute: "data-uploadtarget",
277
- tagNames: {
278
- upload: "wcs-upload",
279
- },
280
- });
281
- ```

+ # @wcstack/upload
2
+
3
+ `@wcstack/upload` is a declarative file upload component for the wcstack ecosystem.
4
+
5
+ It is not a visible UI widget.
6
+ It is a hidden **upload I/O node** that turns file upload into bindable state.
7
+
8
+ With `@wcstack/state`, `<wcs-upload>` exposes a small async state surface:
9
+
10
+ - input / command surface: `files`, `trigger`
11
+ - configuration surface: `url`, `method`, `field-name`, `accept`, `max-size`, `manual`, `multiple`
12
+ - output state surface: `value`, `loading`, `progress`, `error`, `status`
13
+
14
+ This means file upload can be expressed as state transitions and DOM bindings instead of ad-hoc `XMLHttpRequest` glue code.
15
+
16
+ `@wcstack/upload` follows the [CSBC](https://github.com/csbc-dev/arch/blob/main/README.md) (Core / Shell / Binding Contract) architecture:
17
+
18
+ - **Core** (`UploadCore`) handles XHR upload, progress tracking, abort, and async state
19
+ - **Shell** (`<wcs-upload>`) exposes that state as a custom element and DOM-facing runtime surface
20
+ - **Binding Contract** (`static wcBindable`) declares observable `properties`, writable `inputs`, and callable `commands`
21
+
22
+ ## Why this exists
23
+
24
+ File upload usually spreads across too many places:
25
+
26
+ - file input handling
27
+ - `FormData` creation
28
+ - progress events
29
+ - loading flags
30
+ - error handling
31
+ - abort on disconnect
32
+
33
+ `@wcstack/upload` moves that logic into a reusable component and exposes the result as bindable state.
34
+
35
+ ## Install
36
+
37
+ ```bash
38
+ npm install @wcstack/upload
39
+ ```
40
+
41
+ ## Quick Start
42
+
43
+ ### 1. Auto upload when files are assigned
44
+
45
+ ```html
46
+ <script type="module" src="https://esm.run/@wcstack/upload/auto"></script>
47
+
48
+ <wcs-upload id="avatar-upload" url="/api/upload"></wcs-upload>
49
+ <input id="avatar-input" type="file" accept="image/*">
50
+
51
+ <script type="module">
52
+ const upload = document.getElementById("avatar-upload");
53
+ const input = document.getElementById("avatar-input");
54
+
55
+ input.addEventListener("change", () => {
56
+ upload.files = input.files;
57
+ });
58
+
59
+ upload.addEventListener("wcs-upload:progress", (event) => {
60
+ console.log("progress", event.detail);
61
+ });
62
+
63
+ upload.addEventListener("wcs-upload:response", (event) => {
64
+ console.log("uploaded", event.detail.value);
65
+ });
66
+ </script>
67
+ ```
68
+
69
+ Default behavior:
70
+
71
+ - assigning `files` starts upload immediately
72
+ - files are sent as `multipart/form-data`
73
+ - request method defaults to `POST`
74
+ - field name defaults to `file`
75
+
76
+ ### 2. Manual upload with `trigger`
77
+
78
+ Use `manual` when you want to choose files first and upload later.
79
+
80
+ ```html
81
+ <script type="module" src="https://esm.run/@wcstack/upload/auto"></script>
82
+
83
+ <wcs-upload id="resume-upload" url="/api/upload" manual></wcs-upload>
84
+
85
+ <input id="resume-input" type="file">
86
+ <button id="resume-button">Upload</button>
87
+
88
+ <script type="module">
89
+ const upload = document.getElementById("resume-upload");
90
+ const input = document.getElementById("resume-input");
91
+ const button = document.getElementById("resume-button");
92
+
93
+ input.addEventListener("change", () => {
94
+ upload.files = input.files;
95
+ });
96
+
97
+ button.addEventListener("click", () => {
98
+ upload.trigger = true;
99
+ });
100
+ </script>
101
+ ```
102
+
103
+ `trigger` is a one-way command surface:
104
+
105
+ - writing `true` starts `upload()`
106
+ - after completion it resets itself to `false`
107
+ - that reset dispatches `wcs-upload:trigger-changed`
108
+
109
+ Only the `false` reset is observable: the `true` transition (upload start) does **not** dispatch `wcs-upload:trigger-changed`. A binding system writes `true` to start and observes the single `false` edge to know the command finished. This is the same trade-off as `@wcstack/fetch`'s `trigger`.
110
+
111
+ ### 3. Declarative trigger target
112
+
113
+ When auto trigger is enabled, a clickable element can point at a `<wcs-upload>` by id.
114
+
115
+ ```html
116
+ <script type="module" src="https://esm.run/@wcstack/upload/auto"></script>
117
+
118
+ <wcs-upload id="photo-upload" url="/api/upload" manual></wcs-upload>
119
+ <input id="photo-input" type="file">
120
+ <button data-uploadtarget="photo-upload">Upload</button>
121
+
122
+ <script type="module">
123
+ const upload = document.getElementById("photo-upload");
124
+ const input = document.getElementById("photo-input");
125
+
126
+ input.addEventListener("change", () => {
127
+ upload.files = input.files;
128
+ });
129
+ </script>
130
+ ```
131
+
132
+ By default, the trigger attribute is `data-uploadtarget`.
133
+
134
+ ### 4. With `@wcstack/state`
135
+
136
+ ```html
137
+ <script type="module" src="https://esm.run/@wcstack/state/auto"></script>
138

160
+ </wcs-upload>
161
+
162
+ <input id="state-upload-input" type="file">
163
+ <button data-uploadtarget="state-upload">Upload</button>
164
+
165
+ <progress max="100" data-wcs="value: uploadProgress"></progress>
166
+ <p data-wcs="textContent: uploadLoading"></p>
167
+
168
+ <script type="module">
169
+ const upload = document.getElementById("state-upload");
170
+ const input = document.getElementById("state-upload-input");
171

172

173
+ upload.files = input.files;
174
+ });
175
+ </script>
176
+ </wcs-state>
177
+ ```
178
+
179
+ In this setup, upload becomes a bindable async node:
180
+
181
+ - the element performs the request
182
+ - async state flows back as `value`, `loading`, `progress`, `error`, `status`
183

187
+ ### Element attributes and properties
188
+
189
+ | Name | Type | Default | Description |
190
+ |---|---|---|---|
191
+ | `url` | `string` | `""` | Upload endpoint |
192
+ | `method` | `string` | `"POST"` | HTTP method |
193
+ | `field-name` | `string` | `"file"` | FormData field name |
194
+ | `multiple` | `boolean` | `false` | Declarative marker only it advertises multi-file intent but does not enforce file count (any number of files in `files` is sent regardless) |
195
+ | `max-size` | `number` | `Infinity` | Maximum allowed file size in bytes |

197
+ | `manual` | `boolean` | `false` | Disables auto upload on `files` assignment |

200
+ | `value` | `any` | `null` | Parsed response body or response text |
201
+ | `loading` | `boolean` | `false` | Upload state flag |
202
+ | `progress` | `number` | `0` | Upload progress from `0` to `100` |

+ | `error` | `any` | `null` | Validation, network, or response error |
204
+ | `status` | `number` | `0` | HTTP response status |
205
+ | `promise` | `Promise<any>` | resolved `null` | Current upload promise |
206
+
207
+ ### Methods
208
+
209
+ #### `upload()`
210
+
211
+ Starts upload with the current `files` and returns a promise.
212
+
213
+ The promise **resolves** in every terminal case and never rejects:
214
+
215
+ - success → resolves to the parsed response body (`value`)
216
+ - no files / no `url` → resolves to `null` (no-op; no request is started and no error is dispatched)
217
+ - validation failure → resolves to `null` (and dispatches `wcs-upload:error`)
218
+ - HTTP error (status >= 400) → resolves to `null` (the error object is exposed on `error` / `wcs-upload:error`)
219
+ - network error → resolves to `null` (the error is exposed on `error` / `wcs-upload:error`)
220
+ - abort resolves to `null`
221
+
222
+ Because `null` is also a valid resolved value, do not use the resolved value to detect failure — observe `error` / `status` (or the `wcs-upload:error` / `wcs-upload:response` events) instead. This mirrors `@wcstack/fetch`, where errors flow through state rather than promise rejection.
223
+
224
+ > Note on the headless Core: `UploadCore.upload(url, files)` is `async` and **rejects** synchronously-detectable argument errors (missing `url` or empty `files`) by throwing `[@wcstack/upload] ...`. The Shell's `upload()` instead returns `null` for a missing `url` or missing files (it owns the `url`/file lifecycle and treats "no destination" / "no files" as a no-op rather than an error), so the Shell never reaches the Core's throw and never rejects.
225
+
226
+ #### `abort()`
227
+
228
+ Aborts the current request. Loading is cleared through the request's abort path (consistent with `@wcstack/fetch`).
229
+
230
+ ## Events
231
+
232
+ | Event | `detail` | Description |
233
+ |---|---|---|
234
+ | `wcs-upload:files-changed` | `FileList \| File[] \| null` | Fired when `files` changes |
235
+ | `wcs-upload:trigger-changed` | `boolean` | Fired when `trigger` resets to `false` |
236
+ | `wcs-upload:loading-changed` | `boolean` | Fired when loading state changes |
237
+ | `wcs-upload:progress` | `number` | Fired on upload progress updates |
238
+ | `wcs-upload:error` | error object | Fired on validation, network, or HTTP error |
239
+ | `wcs-upload:response` | `{ value, status }` | Fired on successful HTTP response |
240
+
241
+ ## Validation
242
+
243
+ `<wcs-upload>` validates files before sending:
244
+
245
+ - `max-size` rejects files larger than the configured byte size
246
+ - `accept` supports MIME types like `image/*`, exact MIME types like `application/pdf`, and extensions like `.pdf`
247
+
248
+ Files whose `type` is empty (the OS could not determine a MIME type) cannot be matched against MIME patterns. Such files are accepted only if `accept` contains a matching extension pattern (e.g. `.png`); if `accept` lists MIME patterns exclusively, an empty-type file is rejected because its type cannot be verified.
249
+
250
+ Validation failure dispatches `wcs-upload:error` and the request is not started.
251
+
252
+ ### Error vs response on the state surface
253
+
254
+ On a successful response (status 2xx), both `value` and `status` are updated via `wcs-upload:response`. On an HTTP error (status >= 400), only `error` is updated (via `wcs-upload:error`) — **`status` is not propagated to the state surface in the error case**, because `status` is bound to the `wcs-upload:response` event, which is not dispatched for errors. The HTTP status code is still available inside the `error` object (`error.status`). This is the same trade-off as `@wcstack/fetch`: error details flow through the single `error` channel rather than splitting across response/error events.
255
+
256
+ > Reading `core.status` / `el.status` directly returns the HTTP status of the last response, including error statuses such as `413` or `500` (the getter reflects the raw XHR status). This differs from the bound `status` path (driven by `wcs-upload:response`), which stays at its previous value on an error. Code that reads the getter imperatively and code that binds to `status` therefore observe different values after an HTTP error; prefer one path consistently. This is the same structure as `@wcstack/fetch`.
257
+
258
+ ### Progress on error
259
+
260
+ `progress` is only reset to `0` at the start of each upload and set to `100` on success. On an HTTP, network, or abort error, **`progress` is intentionally left at its last value** (e.g. `70`) so the UI can show where the transfer stopped. Use `error` / `loading` (not `progress`) to detect failure, and reset or hide the progress indicator from your UI in response to `wcs-upload:error` if you do not want a stale value displayed. A subsequent `upload()` resets `progress` back to `0`.
261
+
262
+ ## wc-bindable-protocol
263
+
264
+ Both `UploadCore` and `<wcs-upload>` declare `wc-bindable-protocol` compliance, making them interoperable with any framework or component that supports the protocol.
265
+
266
+ The declaration follows the full wc-bindable interface model — three independent surfaces:
267
+
268
+ - **`properties`** — observable outputs that `bind()` subscribes to (`value`, `loading`, `progress`, `error`, `status`, and the Shell's `trigger` / `files`)
269
+ - **`inputs`** — the settable surface (`url`, `method`, `fieldName`, …); declarative metadata that tooling, codegen, and remote proxying read
270
+ - **`commands`** — invocable methods (`upload`, `abort`); a binding system such as `@wcstack/state` can invoke them by name
271
+
272
+ Per the protocol, only `properties` is interpreted by core `bind()`; `inputs` / `commands` (and the `attribute` / `async` hints) are descriptive. They do **not** create implicit two-way data flow.
273
+
274
+ ### Core (`UploadCore`)
275
+
276
+ `UploadCore` declares the bindable async state that any runtime can subscribe to, plus its portable input/command surface:
277
+
278
+ ```typescript
279
+ static wcBindable = {
280
+ protocol: "wc-bindable",
281
+ version: 1,
282
+ properties: [
283
+ { name: "value", event: "wcs-upload:response",
284
+ getter: (e) => e.detail.value },
285
+ { name: "loading", event: "wcs-upload:loading-changed" },
286
+ { name: "progress", event: "wcs-upload:progress" },
287
+ { name: "error", event: "wcs-upload:error" },
288
+ { name: "status", event: "wcs-upload:response",
289
+ getter: (e) => e.detail.status },
290
+ ],
291
+ inputs: [
292
+ { name: "url" },
293
+ { name: "method" },
294
+ { name: "fieldName" },
295
+ ],
296
+ commands: [
297
+ { name: "upload", async: true },
298
+ { name: "abort" },
299
+ ],
300
+ };
301
+ ```
302
+
303
+ Headless consumers call `core.upload(url, files)` directly — no `trigger` needed.
304
+
305
+ ### Shell (`<wcs-upload>`)
306
+
307
+ The Shell extends the Core declaration with the `trigger` / `files` outputs and the DOM-driven input surface; `commands` (`upload` / `abort`) are inherited unchanged:
308
+
309
+ ```typescript
310
+ static wcBindable = {
311
+ ...UploadCore.wcBindable,
312
+ properties: [
313
+ ...UploadCore.wcBindable.properties,
314
+ { name: "trigger", event: "wcs-upload:trigger-changed" },
315
+ { name: "files", event: "wcs-upload:files-changed" },
316
+ ],
317
+ inputs: [
318
+ { name: "url" },
319
+ { name: "method" },
320
+ { name: "fieldName" },
321
+ { name: "multiple" },
322
+ { name: "maxSize" },
323
+ { name: "accept" },
324
+ { name: "manual" },
325
+ { name: "files" },
326
+ { name: "trigger" },
327
+ ],
328
+ };
329
+ ```
330
+
331
+ The Shell's inputs intentionally carry no `attribute` hint: each attribute-backed setter (`url`, `method`, `fieldName`, `multiple`, `maxSize`, `accept`, `manual`) already reflects to its attribute, so a binding system that mirrors `inputs[].attribute` would set the attribute twice.
332
+
333
+ This makes the element consumable from any wc-bindable-aware system, including `@wcstack/state`.
334
+
335
+ ## Headless API
336
+
337
+ If you do not need the custom element shell, you can use `UploadCore` directly:
338
+
339
+ ```ts
340
+ import { UploadCore } from "@wcstack/upload";
341
+
342
+ const core = new UploadCore();
343
+ const result = await core.upload("/api/upload", files, {
344
+ method: "PUT",
345
+ fieldName: "attachment",
346
+ headers: {
347
+ Authorization: "Bearer token",
348
+ },
349
+ });
350
+ ```
351
+
352
+ `UploadCore` exposes the same async state as properties and dispatches the same events.
353
+
354
+ ## Manual bootstrap
355
+
356
+ ```ts
357
+ import { bootstrapUpload } from "@wcstack/upload";
358
+
359
+ bootstrapUpload({
360
+ autoTrigger: true,
361
+ triggerAttribute: "data-uploadtarget",
362
+ tagNames: {
363
+ upload: "wcs-upload",
364
+ },
365
+ });
366
+ ```
367
+
283
368
  Use this when you want to customize the tag name or trigger attribute instead of relying on `@wcstack/upload/auto`.
