Content#

A DropZone accepts an IllustratedMessage as a child which is comprised of three areas: an illustration, a title, and a body. Each of these sections can be populated by providing the following components to the IllustratedMessage as children: a SVG, a Heading (title), and a Content (body). A FileTrigger is commonly paired with a DropZone to allow a user to choose files from their device.

import {FileTrigger} from 'react-aria-components';
import {Text} from 'react-aria-components';

function Example() {
  let [isFilled, setIsFilled] = React.useState(false);

  return (
    <>

Accessibility#

A visual label should be provided to DropZone using a Text element with a label slot. If it is not provided, then an aria-label or aria-labelledby prop must be passed to identify the visually hidden button to assistive technology.

Internationalization#

In order to internationalize a DropZone, a localized string should be passed to the Text element with a label slot or to the aria-label prop, in addition to the replaceMessage prop.

Events#

DropZone supports drop operations via mouse, keyboard, and touch. You can handle all of these via the onDrop prop. In addition, the onDropEnter, onDropMove, and onDropExit events are fired as the user enter and exists the dropzone during a drag operation.

The following example uses an onDrop handler to update the filled status stored in React state.

import File from '@spectrum-icons/illustrations/File';
import {Text} from 'react-aria-components';
import {Flex} from '@react-spectrum/layout';

function Example() {
  let [filledSrc, setFilledSrc] = React.useState(null);

            } else if (item.kind === 'text' && item.types.has('text/plain')) {
              setFilledSrc(await item.getText('text/plain'));
            }
          });

Filled state#

The user is responsible for both managing the filled state of a DropZone and handling the associated styling. To set the DropZone to a filled state, the user must pass the isFilled prop.

The example below demonstrates one way of styling the filled state.

import {Text} from 'react-aria-components';

function Example() {
  let [filledSrc, setFilledSrc] = React.useState(null);

  return (
    <>

        isFilled={!!filledSrc}
        maxWidth="size-3000"
        height="size-2400"
        getDropOperation={(types) =>
          (types.has('image/png') || types.has('image/jpeg'))
            ? 'copy'
            : 'cancel'}
        onDrop={async (e) => {
          e.items.find(async (item) => {
            if (item.kind === 'file') {
              if (item.type === 'image/jpeg' || item.type === 'image/png') {
                setFilledSrc(URL.createObjectURL(await item.getFile()));
              }
            } else if (item.kind === 'text') {
              setFilledSrc(await item.getText('image/jpeg'));
            }
          });

Replace message#

When a DropZone is in a filled state and has an object dragged over it, a message will appear in front of the DropZone. By default, this message will say "Drop file to replace". However, users can choose to customize this message through the replaceMessage prop. This message should describe the interaction that will occur when the object is dropped. It should also be internationalized if needed.

import {Text} from 'react-aria-components';

function Example() {
  let [isFilled, setIsFilled] = React.useState(false);

Visual feedback#

A DropZone displays visual feedback to the user when a drag hovers over the drop target by passing the getDropOperation function. If a drop target only supports data of specific types (e.g. images, videos, text, etc.), then it should implement the getDropOperation prop and return 'cancel' for types that aren't supported. This will prevent visual feedback indicating that the drop target accepts the dragged data when this is not true. Read more about getDropOperation.

In the below example, the drop zone only supports dropping JPEG images. If a JPEG is dragged over the drop zone, it will be highlighted and the operating system will display a copy cursor. If another type is dragged over the drop zone, then there is no visual feedback, indicating that a drop is not accepted.

  let [filledSrc, setFilledSrc] = React.useState(null);
