Hi Folks,
Not sure how to proceed...
I want to be able to download files with a click, not a right-click context menu item. This is pretty easy. I have a custom formatter that will present the file as the argument to a script. The custom formatter looks like this:
$s = '<a href="' . drupal_get_path('module', 'download') . '/download.php?file=' . $variables['#items'][0]['uri'] . '">'; $s .= '<img class="file-icon" alt="" title="audio/mpeg" src="/modules/file/icons/audio-x-generic.png">'; $s .= '</a>'; echo $s;
And the script is equally simple:
header('Content-Description: File Transfer'); header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream'); header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='.basename($file)); header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary'); header('Expires: 0'); header('Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0'); header('Pragma: public'); header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($file)); ob_clean(); flush(); readfile($file);
So, here's the question. I need this script to be a module, so the custom formatter can find it (drupal_get_path()). I have a trivial download.info and an empty download.module. This is really just a utility script and not really a module. What is the recommended way to "register" this script for general use? hook_menu?
Chris.
