dialog

Native system dialogs for opening and saving files.

This package is also accessible with window.__TAURI__.dialog when build.withGlobalTauri in tauri.conf.json is set to true.

The APIs must be added to tauri.allowlist.dialog in tauri.conf.json:

{
"tauri": {
"allowlist": {
"dialog": {
"all": true, // enable all dialog APIs
"ask": true, // enable dialog ask API
"confirm": true, // enable dialog confirm API
"message": true, // enable dialog message API
"open": true, // enable file open API
"save": true // enable file save API
}
}
}
}

It is recommended to allowlist only the APIs you use for optimal bundle size and security.

open​

open(options?: OpenDialogOptions): Promise<null | string | string[]>

Open a file/directory selection dialog.

The selected paths are added to the filesystem and asset protocol allowlist scopes. When security is more important than the easy of use of this API, prefer writing a dedicated command instead.

Note that the allowlist scope change is not persisted, so the values are cleared when the application is restarted. You can save it to the filesystem using tauri-plugin-persisted-scope.

Example

import { open } from '@tauri-apps/api/dialog';
// Open a selection dialog for image files
const selected = await open({
multiple: true,
filters: [{
name: 'Image',
extensions: ['png', 'jpeg']
}]
});
if (Array.isArray(selected)) {
// user selected multiple files
} else if (selected === null) {
// user cancelled the selection
} else {
// user selected a single file
}

Example

import { open } from '@tauri-apps/api/dialog';
import { appDir } from '@tauri-apps/api/path';
// Open a selection dialog for directories
const selected = await open({
directory: true,
multiple: true,
defaultPath: await appDir(),
});
if (Array.isArray(selected)) {
// user selected multiple directories
} else if (selected === null) {
// user cancelled the selection
} else {
// user selected a single directory
}

Since: 1.0.0

Parameters

NameType
optionsOpenDialogOptions

save​

save(options?: SaveDialogOptions): Promise<string | null>

Open a file/directory save dialog.

The selected path is added to the filesystem and asset protocol allowlist scopes. When security is more important than the easy of use of this API, prefer writing a dedicated command instead.

Note that the allowlist scope change is not persisted, so the values are cleared when the application is restarted. You can save it to the filesystem using tauri-plugin-persisted-scope.

Example

import { save } from '@tauri-apps/api/dialog';
const filePath = await save({
filters: [{
name: 'Image',
extensions: ['png', 'jpeg']
}]
});

Since: 1.0.0
