UncleCheese,
Thank you for the module. Here's how my test went.
I downloaded bulkuploader0.0.3.zip, unzipped the file and uploaded folders "bulk_uploader", "swfupload", and "sortable_dataobject" to the root of a fresh SS 2.3.0-rc2 install which only had the base e-commerce trunk module installed.
I wanted to implement the feature for the basic Page type, so below is my code for Page.php.
-----------------------
<?php
class Page extends SiteTree {
public static $db = array(
);
public static $has_one = array(
);
static $has_many = array (
'Resources' => 'Resource'
);
function getCMSFields()
{
$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Files", new BulkUploaderField(
$this,
'Resources',
'PDF'
));
return $fields;
}
}
class Page_Controller extends ContentController {
public function init() {
parent::init();
// Note: you should use <% require %> tags inside your templates instead of putting Requirements calls here. However
// these are included so that our older themes still work
Requirements::themedCSS("layout");
Requirements::themedCSS("typography");
Requirements::themedCSS("form");
}
}
?>
-----------------------
and the following is the code for Resource.php
-----------------------
<?php
class Resource extends DataObject {
static $db = array (
'Name' => 'Text',
'Description' => 'Text'
);
static $has_one = array (
'Page' => 'Page',
'PDF' => 'File'
);
protected static $bulk_uploader_fields = array (
'Name' => 'TextField',
'Description' => 'TextField'
);
protected static $allowed_file_types = array (
'pdf'
);
}
?>
-----------------------
I did a dev/build and ?flush=1 on the admin.
The build completes successfully and a "Files" tab is created for page type "Page" as expected. 2 points though:
1. In the "Manage Files" section on the right, you can import from an existing folder under assets, but that imports all the files in the selected folder. Ideally, you want to be able to choose the file(s) to import from a folder. Otherwise, you are forced to import all files from a folder first and then delete the ones you don't want from the left. This could be a very unnecessary and time consuming process, if for instance you had a subfolder "PDF" which contained say 100 uploaded PDF files, but you only needed one or two of them to be attached to a page.
2. The "Upload files" function on the left does not work at all. Initially, I get "There are currently no files attached to this page. Upload files" with an "UPLOAD FILES" button below. Whether I press the "Upload files" link or button below, the flash uploader does not load. I simply get an "Upload File(s)" button followed by "Allowed file types: pdf".
Thanks,
Amir
