Controlled

When multiple is false:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { FileInput } from '@mantine/core';


function Demo() {
  const [value, setValue] = useState<File | null>(null);
  return <FileInput value={value} onChange={setValue} />;
}

When multiple is true:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { FileInput } from '@mantine/core';


function Demo() {
  const [value, setValue] = useState<File[]>([]);
  return <FileInput multiple value={value} onChange={setValue} />;
}

Multiple

Set multiple to allow user to pick more than one file:

import { FileInput } from '@mantine/core';


function Demo() {
  return <FileInput label="Upload files" placeholder="Upload files" multiple />;
}

Disabled state

import { FileInput } from '@mantine/core';


function Demo() {
  return <FileInput disabled />;

Accept

Set accept prop to restrict files selection to specific mime types:

import { FileInput } from '@mantine/core';


function Demo() {
  return <FileInput label="Upload files" placeholder="Upload files" accept="image/png,image/jpeg" />;
}

Custom value component

import { FileInput, FileInputProps, Group, Center, rem } from '@mantine/core';
import { IconPhoto } from '@tabler/icons-react';


function Value({ file }: { file: File }) {
  return (
    <Center
      inline
      sx={(theme) => ({
        backgroundColor: theme.colorScheme === 'dark' ? theme.colors.dark[7] : theme.colors.gray[1],
        fontSize: theme.fontSizes.xs,
        padding: `${rem(3)} ${rem(7)}`,
        borderRadius: theme.radius.sm,
      })}
    >
      <IconPhoto size={rem(14)} style={{ marginRight: rem(5) }} />
      <span
        style={{
          whiteSpace: 'nowrap',
          textOverflow: 'ellipsis',
          overflow: 'hidden',
          maxWidth: rem(200),
          display: 'inline-block',
        }}
      >
        {file.name}
      </span>
    </Center>
  );
}


const ValueComponent: FileInputProps['valueComponent'] = ({ value }) => {
  if (Array.isArray(value)) {
    return (
      <Group spacing="sm" py="xs">
        {value.map((file, index) => (
          <Value file={file} key={index} />
        ))}
      </Group>
    );
  }


  return <Value file={value} />;
};


function Demo() {
  return (
    <Box maw={320} mx="auto">
      <FileInput label="Multiple" placeholder="Multiple" multiple valueComponent={ValueComponent} />
      <FileInput mt="md" label="Single" placeholder="Single" valueComponent={ValueComponent} />
    </Box>
  );
}

With icon

import { FileInput, rem } from '@mantine/core';
import { IconUpload } from '@tabler/icons-react';


function Demo() {
  return <FileInput label="Your resume" placeholder="Your resume" icon={<IconUpload size={rem(14)} />} />;
}

Get input ref

import { useRef } from 'react';
import { FileInput } from '@mantine/core';


function Demo() {
  const ref = useRef<HTMLButtonElement>(null);
  return <FileInput ref={ref} />;
}

Accessibility

Provide aria-label in case you use component without label or placeholder for screen reader support:

<FileInput /> // -> not ok, button is not labeled
<FileInput label="My input" /> // -> ok, button and label is connected
<FileInput placeholder="My input" /> // -> ok, button has label
<FileInput aria-label="My input" /> // -> ok, button is not visible but will be announced by screen reader
