Issue status update for
http://drupal.org/node/25756
Post a follow up:
http://drupal.org/project/comments/add/25756
Project: Drupal
Version: cvs
Component: upload.module
Category: tasks
Priority: normal
Assigned to: Junyor
Reported by: Junyor
Updated by: m3avrck
Status: patch (code needs review)
Looking good but needs some work.
The link to each file that has been upload is malformed:
http://localhost/drupal/?q=http://localhost/drupal/files/upload.module
Some reason that is absolute and it shouldn't be, looks like line 280
is the problem there. 'Page not found' with dirty URLs. However, with
clean URLS, I get 403 forbidden "access denied" to this link:
http://localhost/drupal/files/upload.module
Is there a way to set a limit on total file size per user? When I goto
"my uploads" it says limit per file and per directory is 1mb yet I
don't see any way to set these in Settings > Uploads. Also, shouldn't
you be able to set different limits for each user as well?
Additionally, under "my uploads" it says allowable extensions but I
don't see anywhere to define those as well?
Under latest HEAD with Drupal running on PHP 5.0.3 I get the following
warnings:
warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an
array in \modules\upload.module on line 124.
warning: array_flip() [function.array-flip]: The argument should be an
array in \modules\upload.module on line 133.
warning: implode() [function.implode]: Bad arguments. in
\modules\upload.module on line 139.
Seems all of these warnings are being caused by the extensions variable
I pointed out... not defined correctly, and this *should* be
configurable option in Settings > Uploads ... not hardcoded like it is
in the module.
Please let me know if I can help, I think we can get this into core, it
is definetly needed!

I've found the need to have some administration for file attachments.
Here's a demo patch of some of the proposed added functionality. This
functionality should easily allow users to get a list of the files
they've uploaded, so they can get rid of old files if they reach their
size limit.
Changes:
- Added an 'administer uploaded files' permission
- Added admin/uploads and 'my uploads', which list uploaded files
Planned changes:
- statistics for the 'my uploads' and admin/uploads pages with total
size of uploaded files and size limit
- functionality to delete/rename files (using checkboxes to select
multiple files)
Please comment on code quality, current functionality, and planned
functionality. Thanks.
Patch applies to 4.6 and HEAD.

Sounds like a good idea from your description. I haven't tested, but a
quick glance at the patch shows an odd comment:
+/*
+ * Menu callback:
+ * Pages where users add and delete their subscriptions to nodes
+ */

Oops. That's what I get for copying code. I'll fix that in the next
patch.

Looks useful to me. If I had more uploads on my dev site I would try it
out.
Some code comments:
- don't reuse upload_page() for both user and admin page. split off
admin stuff into a new menu callback which points to a new
upload_admin_page() function.
- in the query for admin page, don't directly use the UID when building
the $sql. instead, pass that as an argument at end of pager_query().
this protects against SQL injection attack
- do we really want to show file locations to regular users? i think
not.
- perhaps show node title in the file listing tables
your proposed enhancements look swell to me.
related question: do attachments on unpublished nodes acount against
user quota? if so, user is powerless to delete them? this module could
fix that I think. when unpublished, i suggest showing node title
without hyperlink.

Thanks for the feedback, Moshe! I haven't worked on this in a couple of
weeks, but I'll try to get back to it soon and I'll add in your
feedback. Moving back to active so it doesn't clog up the patch queue
any longer.

Moshe: When you said the following:
- do we really want to show file locations to regular users? i think
not.
- perhaps show node title in the file listing tables
what did you mean? The "Location" column is the node title where the
file is attached. What file location is being shown to users?

yeah, i think we are ok on file location .... you might consider
releasing this as a contrib module if core is uninterested.

Here's a new update. Still not ready for commit, but much further
along. Developed against 4.6, but patch applies to CVS with some fuzz.
Uploading files didn't seem to work for me in CVS, so I couldn't test
whether the patch worked.
When the time comes, I hope this will be considered for core, as it
seems like missing functionality to upload.module now.
Changes since last patch:
* Split upload_page into upload_page and upload_admin
* Added 'delete all selected files' operation on admin/upload and
upload pages
* Fixed upload_admin query to avoid SQL code injection (thanks, Moshe)
* Renamed "Location" column to "Title"
* Don't show unpublished nodes as links in the "Title" column
* Fixed bugs so that you can actually delete files now ;)
To Do:
* statistics for the 'my uploads' and admin/uploads pages with total
size of uploaded files and size limit
* figure out why status messages remain across page loads
* get Operations column working
Questions:
* What operations should go in the Operations column, anyway?
* What other operations should be added to the mass-operations
drop-down?

Hey Junyor, awesome patch!
I've recently wrote my own PHP based file management script that does
very similar (but not in a Drupal enivorment). I've attached a screen
shot of the interface.
As for operations, I'd love to see the basics like what I have. Copy
(file or folder), Move (file or folder), Zip (file or folder) for
download, and obviously delete, upload, and create folder :) Also, I
have a function that cleans file names too, replacing spaces and weird
punctucation with a certain character (right now just a _) to avoid
conflicts on Windows based machines. This feature could obviously be
enabled or turned off.
I researched this quite a bit and I've found some top notch code for
all of these operations, all open source as well. Additionally, all of
the icons are from this set that was released as open source as well so
we could include those too.
I'd love to contribute and work with you to further extend this module.
Having solid file management features would be great in Drupal.
Junyor, just drop me a line through the Drupal contact and I'd be glad
to discuss things and aid in the development of this!!

I think the changes you want are outside the scope of upload.module, let
alone this patch. It's probably better to work on a new contrib module
with the functionality you're referring to. FWIW, file.inc already has
some functions you could hook into. Good luck!

Updated patch for CVS. Removed operation column, as I couldn't find a
way to get the delete link to work and the checkbox will work just as
well anyway. Please review. I'd like to get this into 4.7.
