I like it a lot. I would like to suggest you also an svn based storage if that is conceivable or at least to leave the space for hooks so that a post-commit xwiki "reload-from-directory" and a "post-xwiki-save-commit" are hookable to synchronize with whatever you wish. I wonder if you don't want, right away, a virtual-file-system so that such as an ftp-mount (for some spaces?) is doable. paul Le 23 nov. 2010 à 03:03, Caleb James DeLisle a écrit :
I would like to propose a different method for attachment storage. I have spent some time working on referencing using a UUID and have run into problems with how to garbage collect files if the corresponding database entry should go missing as well as problems with getting UUID standardization approved.
I would like to try a different direction. There will be a directory for the wiki, one for the space and one for the document. Inside of the document directory will be the attachments.
An attachment called myImage.png attached to the document xwiki:Main.WebHome will be placed in the following location: <filesystem store directory>/xwiki/Main/WebHome/attachments/myImage.png
If there is an XWikiAttachment entry in the database, the metadata from that entry will be matched with the attachment. If there is no metadata entry but there is a file, empty metadata will be created.
Users will have the option of adding attachments to documents by copying the files into the relevant directory.
An escaping scheme will have to be adopted to prevent attachments named ../../../../../etc/passwd or the like.
I have not started on this, I would like to see some +1 before I start writing code.
WDYT?
Caleb
