The component takes four props:

  • name (String): Required prop, must be unique (you can consider it like id)
  • progress (Number): Number between 0-100. If it is null or 100 component consider uploading process finished.
  • error (String): Error message in case that server responded with error
  • height (String): Default is 350px

The component emits change event with single file as data, when it recieve an image, after it can be uploaded as described above)
