include the files:

<script src="js/jquery.filebrowser.min.js"></script> <link href="css/jquery.filebrowser.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>

and you can use this code to initialize the plugin:

$(function() {     var browse = $('#browser').browse({         root: '/',         separator: '/',         contextmenu: true,         dir: function(path) {             return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {                  if (path == '/') {                      resolve({dirs: ['foo', 'bar'], files: []});                  } else if (path == '/foo/') {                      resolve({dirs: [], files: ['baz', 'quux']});                  } else if (path == '/bar/') {                      resolve({dirs: [], files: ['lorem', 'ipsum']});                  } else {                      reject(); // for cases when you type wrong path in address bar                  }              });         },         open: function(filename) {             console.log('opening ' + filename);         }     }); });

All user functions that modify the Directory like create, remove, copy, rename can return a promise, and the plugin will refresh the view (call dir function) when it's resolved.

more examples and usage in examples directory.

Requirement

If you want context menu (enabled using contextmenu option) you'll need jQuery UI and of course you need jQuery itself.

Options

  • name - used to distinguish different filesystem for copying nad moving files (rename)
  • dir - function that should return a promise that resolve to object {files: <ARRAY>, dirs: <ARRAY>} or return that object
  • exists - function that will return true/false or a promise that resolve to true/false that indicate if file or directory exists (used when create new file/directory)
  • separator - path separator (a string) usualy / or \ (to use \ you need to put '\\') default /
  • root - root of the filesystem, it can be any path like /home/<user>, default /
  • change - callback function that's called on refresh of the directory
  • init - callack executed on initalization of the plugin
  • item_class - function that should return addiional classes for the element (directory or file) you can use this to have different icons for C or D drive that's in root directory, see windows example
  • dbclick_delay - if the time of the second click is lower then this but hight then rename_delay it's consider as action for rename a file or directory
  • open - callback function executed with path of the file when you double click on the file
  • rename - callback function called with old path nad new path when you rename a file or direcoty
  • create - callback called with path of the new file or directory and string 'directory' or 'file' as second argument
  • copy - callback executed when you copy a file using CTRL+C and CTRL+V
  • upload - callback called with file object and the path when you drag and drop a file or directory to browser container, you can also drag into visible directory
  • error - called when error accured like when you try to enter invalid path in address bar
  • refresh_timer - timeout after fetch of the content of the file in miliseconds, used to see visible refresh when you change direcotry (you can set it to 0), default 100
  • menu - should return object which keys are names of the context menu and values are other object (they will create submenus) or a function that will be executed when menu item is click it acceppt single argument string 'li' or 'content' depend if you click on file/directory or on empty browser space. example:
    menu: function(type) {         if (type == 'li') {             return {                 'alert': function($li) {                     alert('alert for item ' + $li.text());                 }             }         }  else {             return {                 'Create File': function() {                     var name = prompt('name: ');                     var path;                     if (name) {                         path = this.join(this.path(), name);                     }                     this.create('file', path);                 }             };         }     },
