- file_info class now has new methods get_non_empty_children and count_non_empty_children; added default implementation;
- all core classes extending file_info have their implementation of those methods;
- class repository_local_file used for caching get_children() results is removed;
- class repository_local rewritten to use new methods from file_info;
- added caching of retrieved modules in file_browser::get_file_info_context_module() - this query is slow and executed multiple times on big servers
- When Dropbox file is inserted by reference, the shared link is created and stored
- Added a function to fix old references (containing access_key/secret) with the proper ones
- Added support for external links in Dropbox (FILE_EXTERNAL), using the shared link API
- Make sure that repository::get_link() receives reference and not source (other repositories than Dropbox have those fields identical)
- Function get_file_by_reference respects request timeouts, downloads only images (for thumbnail generation),
- Function get_file respects request timeout
- do not use cache_file class (content is cached in moodle filepool if needed)
- added parameter for maximum size of files to cache
- added 'Manage' link for Filepicker
- added user name to
- added user name (if different from current) to 'Original' field
- added/corrected phpdocs
repository_equella::get_file_by_reference respects request timeouts, downloads only images (for thumbnail generation),
does not use cache_file class (content is cached in moodle filepool if needed);
also repository_equella has counter of unsuccessfull connect attempts and do not perform any more if 3 failed
(within one request)
boxlib receives additional argument as request timeout
repository_boxnet::get_file_by_reference respects request timeouts and downloads file into moodle only if it is image
also some improvements to repository_boxnet source display functions;
also do not cache result of request in retrieving of listing, user is unable to see the new files he added to box.
it must be independed from sync_external_file because sync often does not actually download contents, it is used just to retrieve
the size of the file. Besides the timeouts for get_file and sync requests are very different.
Also add option to send_stored_file() to ignore reference and send cached contents
- get_file should have a request timeout and throw an exception with the details (i.e. timeout reached) if download can
not be completed
- corrected phpdocs
make sure that repository function get_file_source_info receives as argument the source of the file,
and get_file receives a reference;
reference is a value of DB field files_reference.reference and result of get_file_reference(source).
Fix dropbox as the only repository that have different values in those fields;
also added information about user in dropbox reference and original
we want to allow repositories to perform quick synchronisation, without downloading the file. In this case they return
only filesize, without the contenthash
* $templatesinitialized is now an array, so that subsequent calls to initialise_filepicker which request different repositories will include those (and only those) templates which it requires but have not yet been included
* The get_template method has also been renamed to get_upload_template (and the template to "uploadform_" followed by the repository type), since it only applies to upload forms
* If a plugin provides a get_upload_template method, the template it returns will now automatically be used instead of the standard uploadform template when generating an upload form
Allow repository plugins to register a template by defining a get_template() method, coupled with the ability to request the template be used by create_upload_form() instead of the standard 'uploadform' template. The template is automatically registered using the plugin's name, and core templates will override any which clash; this also means that a theme can override these templates in a custom renderer if it wants to.
