bootstrap-fileinput
An enhanced HTML 5 file input for Bootstrap 3.x and 4.x with file preview for various files, offers multiple selection, and more. The plugin allows you a simple way to setup an advanced file picker/upload control built to work specially with Bootstrap CSS3 styles. It enhances the file input functionality further, by offering support to preview a wide variety of files i.e. images, text, html, video, audio, flash, and objects. In addition, it includes AJAX based uploads, dragging & dropping files, viewing upload progress, and selectively previewing, adding, or deleting files.
NOTE: An alternative new Krajee Explorer Theme (preview shown below) for
bootstrap-fileinput
has been released and available since v4.3.7. For more theming options and suggestions refer the theming demos.
Documentation and Demo
View the plugin documentation and plugin demos at Krajee JQuery plugins.
Pre-requisites
- Bootstrap 3.x or 4.x
- Latest JQuery
- Most modern browsers supporting HTML5 (inputs and FileReader API) including CSS3 & JQuery. For Internet Explorer, one must use IE versions 10 and above. IE9 and below will work as a normal file input, and will not support multiple file selection or the HTML 5 FileReader API.
- With release 4.0, AJAX uploads are supported. AJAX uploads require that the browser support HTML5 FormData and XHR2 (XMLHttpRequest 2). Most modern browsers support FormData and XHR2. The plugin will automatically degrade to normal form based submission for browsers not supporting AJAX uploads
NOTE:
- Bootstrap 4.x is supported in addition to Bootstrap 3.x since release v4.4.4. Refer the CHANGE LOG for details.
- You can use the sass branch for installation using
bootstrap-sass
dependency. The master branch can be used for installation using plainbootstrap
dependency.

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.min.js"></script>
<!-- piexif.min.js is needed for auto orienting image files OR when restoring exif data in resized images and when you
wish to resize images before upload. This must be loaded before fileinput.min.js -->
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap-fileinput/4.5.2/js/plugins/piexif.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- sortable.min.js is only needed if you wish to sort / rearrange files in initial preview.

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/popper.js/1.14.7/umd/popper.min.js"></script>
<!-- bootstrap.min.js below is needed if you wish to zoom and preview file content in a detail modal

can be optionally included for the font awesome icons styling. The locale file <lang>.js
can be optionally included for translating for your language if needed.
Optional Dependent Plugins
- The
piexif.min.js
file is the source for the Piexifjs plugin by hMatoba. It is required to be loaded beforefileinput.min.js
if you wish to use the image resize feature of the bootstrap-fileinput plugin. - The
sortable.min.js
file is the source for the Sortable plugin by rubaxa. It is required to be loaded beforefileinput.min.js
if you wish to sort the thumbnails in the initial preview. - The
purify.min.js
file is the source for the DomPurify plugin by cure53. It is required to be loaded beforefileinput.min.js
if you wish to purify your HTML for HTML content preview.
For ease of access, the sources for the above plugins are included in the js/plugins
folder of this project repository.
Step 2: Initialize the plugin on your page. For example,
// initialize with defaults
$("#input-id").fileinput();
// with plugin options
$("#input-id").fileinput({'showUpload':false, 'previewFileType':'any'});
The #input-id
is the identifier for the input (e.g. type = file
) on your page, which is hidden automatically by the plugin.
Alternatively, you can directly call the plugin options by setting data attributes to your input field.
<input id="input-id" type="file" class="file" data-preview-file-type="text" >
