Multiple but sequencial file uploads with LiveView
Hello! I’m creating a page to upload multiple files. I want that the user can select (or drag&drop) multiple files at once and start uploading. I achieved it using:
allow_upload(socket, :samples,
accept: :any,
max_entries: 10_000_000,
max_file_size: 10_000_000_000,
auto_upload: true
)
However, if you select 100 files all of them are uploaded at the same time. I don’t like this behavior; I’d like to upload only one file concurrently (or maybe 2). Once the file is completely uploaded, continue with the next one.
I couldn’t find any information on LiveView and this behavior. As far as I could understand, it seems to be a Javascript thing, but no idea how to modify the default behavior in LiveView.
Any ideas? Thank you!!

Not supported at the moment, but there was a previous effort to add a max_concurrency option– personally I’d be happy to review a PR if someone wanted to resurrect that effort ![]()
