You should replace your null value with a File object. A File object can be taken from a FileInput controle.
You should check the sample application, it shows how to use a select-directive and file-drop directive. These two handles the FileInput/Drop control -> File -> FileItem -> a queue for uploading with the upload control.

If you want to create a File from some data you could do it like this:

let someFile: File = new File(["some content for the filename comes here"], "someFileName.txt");
this.uploader.addToQueue(new Array<File>(someFile));
this.uploader.uploadAll();

If you want to upload a url from some external location, you should first need to download that data to the client and create a File from that data.
