Modules: File management

Filter by Drupal Core compatibility:
Login or register to modify the filter.

Contributed (contrib) modules are plugins for Drupal that extend, build or enhance Drupal core functionality. Use matching versions (modules released for Drupal 5.x will not work for Drupal 6.x). Contributed modules are not part of Drupal core releases and may or may not have optimized code/functionality. If a module solves your needs please consider joining forces and helping the maintainer.

Asset

The asset module provides an intuitive method of managing any type of media or even generic files. An asset is any type of file that has been uploaded in the asset wizard: images, audio, youtube videos, flash movies, text documents, pdfs,... Permissions can be set to both assets and directories, making them publicly available to anyone, to specific roles or just to yourself.

Asset API

The asset API has for goal to provide some kind of abstraction layer for the file management.

It is not yet ready for production use

(but I'm working hard on it and try to do may best)

It is composed of a main module and some sub-modules (implementing handling of some file types like images, pdf, flv video, swf files, openoffice documents and archives).

The main module provides (limited) block and filter features and an asset browser too.
There's also some views integration and some other useful things (like an asset importer and a module managing the conversion of video files into flv - using FFMPEG but extensible).

Every asset is in fact a node (which allows some nice CCK extensibility).

This version of the module is for Drupal 5.x but an other version for Drupal 6 is already started.
By the way, some files of the project are missing because I'm not sure to be allowed to redistribute them under GPL license (if somebody could help me to figure out what I'm allowed to redistribute, I'll be really happy).

I already knows that the project is missing documentation and some integration with TinyMCE or other WYSIWYG editors (for example, because one of the goal is to provide some really user friendly tools too and replace IMCE).

The development of this project was started just after the DrupalCon 2007 in Barcelona.

Audio FileField

This module adds Audio support to the FileField module for CCK. It will automatically detect if a file is mime type audio/mpeg, and take over from there.

In particular, it adds support for audio metadata, and allows automatic audio playback, if using the jQuery Media module plugin.

IMPORTANT: You currently need to apply the patches from http://drupal.org/node/255328 and http://drupal.org/node/255460 against FileField to be able to store and use metadata.

ADDITIONALLY: This module is experimental, and may be merged into an existing module, such as Audio or Media Field, depending on the direction of those modules. Use at your own risk.

Audit Files

Audit files is designed to perform audits of your {files} table and upload directory. It will cross check that all files in the {files} table have a corresponding physical file, or it will check that all files in the upload directory have a corresponding entry in the {files} table.

This module can be helpful in identifying orphan files that have not been deleted when their corresponding node was removed.

The audit report will ignore .htaccess, directories, and the contents of the color directory.

Files that do not have a parent entry can be deleted from the report, but be sure you really want to delete the file before using this option. Files that have been uploaded via a method that do not create entries in the {files} table will be identified as an orphan. This most commonly applies to uploaded logos for themes.

Bitcache

Bitcache is a distributed content-addressable storage (CAS) system. It provides repository storage for bitstreams (colloquially known as blobs) of any length, each uniquely identified and addressed by a digital fingerprint derived through a secure cryptographic hash algorithm.

This is a module that provides a Bitcache-compatible data storage repository for Drupal and implements the Bitcache REST API for interoperability with the standalone Bitcache command-line and synchronization tools.

CCK Download Dropdown

Looking for co-maintainer. See message in issue queue.

This module adds the ability to place a single drop down selector and download button on a node. The drop down list is populated by links to attachments from a node that you specify. Selecting an attachment and pressing the download button will initiate a download of the selected file. Although multiple drop downs in a single field are not supported, you can add multiple fields, each with a drop down populated by different files. In this way you can link to as many nodes' files as you wish without taking up a lot of screen space.

USE CASE EXAMPLE: If you have categories of files and want to show them all on one page without a huge list like you get with the standard upload module, you can create a node for each category, use the upload module to attach those files, then use this module to create a field for each node you have created.

*************************************************************************************
IMPORTANT!!! - You need to supply an icon, call it disk.png, and place it in this
module's folder. The one I use wasn't GPL-compatible so could not be included in this
release. The one I use looks like a floopy disk, but you could use anything.

CDN integration

This is the result.

Disclaimer

This module is not yet production ready. It works fine on smaller sites, but it doesn't scale yet (yes, that's pretty ironic since the exact goal is better scalability of Drupal sites). If you want to make this ready for production use sooner rather than later, please contact me to sponsor the development.

Description

The aim of this module to provide easy Content Delivery Network integration for Drupal sites. Obviously it has to patch Drupal core to rewrite the URLs, not only to serve them from another domain, but also to make the filenames unique.

It has synchronization plugins, so it allows you to use any protocol or algorithm to synchronize your files. Currently however, only one plugin is available: FTP. Since proper usage of a CDN demands unique filenames for each version of a file, we can optimize a lot: to validate a file on the CDN while synchronizing, we must only know if it 1) exists and 2) has the correct size.

Which files and directories should be synchronized can be configured very precisely. Consult the README for details about that.

The FTP synchronization plugin allows you to use a $15 per month CDN (thus making CDNs accessible to a lot Drupal users) with no effort after the
installation!

DataBase File Manager

Database File Manager

DBFM is, in much the same way as WebFM (the origin of DBFM), a file manager based on a hierarchical directory structure and uses AJAX to allow administrators to arrange files in the database in the same way they do with file managers on their personal systems.

Unlike WebFM, DBFM stores its files in a database as opposed to the filesystem. This change was made to enable advanced manipulation of the uploaded information. Keywords, notes and other meta-data can be added to uploaded documents, document revision management is now possible. Future revisions of DBFM will include extensive searching of this meta-data.

This allows site administrators, or even site users to arrange massive collections of documentation and images on their sites.

Additionally, DBFM has been prepared for Multi-site replication - allowing site administrators to run multiple drupal sites containing the same documentation.

A plugin is also included for the TinyMCE WYSIWYG editor, enabling you to embed/attach images on your pages and resize them to suit your requirements.

Features

  • Application-like look and feel via AJAX
  • Drag and drop move of files and directories
  • Attachment of files to nodes
  • Embedding of images in the virtual filesystem to nodes
  • Single file upload
  • Image preview pane
  • File delete/rename/view/download-file/attach/embed/acls

Disk Node

DiskNode adds a new nodetype called DiskNode. The main purpose for this node is to serve as download module. Each disknode links to a single file stored within the file storage. These files are already in this directory. File management tools are provided with the disknode. It will allow you to upload a local file or a file already stored on an other webserver.
Downloads of the files are counted.

download_count

Download Counter

This module increments a download counter each time an attached file is successfully downloaded. Each file has its counter. Note : the module only works when Drupal's download method is set to private.

The module also logs a descriptive message to admin » logs, under type 'download', when a file is either successfully downloaded or when someone (usually a robot) attempts to download a file but is denied access to that file ('file x has been downloaded', 'Failed to download file x'). Browsing through the logs, the administrator can see who downloaded what file and from which 'referal' page.

A page can be accessed where a table lists all downloaded files with their download count. The table provides this information:

  1. filename
  2. download count
  3. last time the file was downloaded in the form 'x days y min ago'
  4. a link to view the node where the file is attached

Download statistics can be viewed in the node as well.

Drupal FTP

This is just an engine right now, and an FTP browser. Not sure where I'm going with this, but there wasn't anything giving an FTP interface in Drupal that I could find, so here's a start. Currently, it hard-codes the ftp u/p info, and defaults to ftp.drupal.org, just to give you the point. After installing, go to /admin/settings/drupal_ftp, and possibly change access rules at /admin/user/access.

This is an extensive remodification of the my_ftp class (though no longer a class) at http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/PHP/My-FTP-Wrapper-Class-for-PHP/

Possible uses:

  • ftp browsing
  • automatic module/theme installation
  • inline file modification

I made a custom module using this as an API that will copy Image files (during upload) to an ftp server, so they may be served from off-server. But it's a fairly specific use, and doubtful there's much use for that sort of application. However, I'd be happy to contribute it if there's a need for it.

Fast Gallery

This module allows a very fast installation of an image gallery. The principle is very simple and works similar to the windows explorer.

in 2 minutes a nice image gallery:

  1. You put all your pictures via FTP in a folder. For structuring you use subfolders.
  2. Go to settings and specify which folder to use as imagegallery
  3. Save...
  4. Voilà, you are done...

Images are then being processed via the internal (sucky cache) or imagecache to produce nice thumbnails and thickbox is being used to present the full view. You can choose between automatic and manual indexing of your files. This is just really simple!

Sponsered by www.rapsli.ch. Have a look at some screenshots or a little Screencast (this is my first one, so don't complain!) Screencast 2 and here my Gallery (without imagecache).

Features to come:

  • There is going to be a way to restrict access by role
  • Exif File integration for title and maybe other things -> this still needs some love

File Defer

File Defer is a module which searches for missing files at a remote location.

The primary use is for stage or development versions of a website. If you have a development version and a live version of the same drupal site, you can set up the dev site to look for missing files on the live server, negating the need to hand transfer those files while testing.

File Force

When a site visitor requests a file, File Force can force the user's web browser to download the file to disk instead of displaying it in the browser window.

Web browsers today are pre-configured to display various types of media when accessed directly, such as text files, various image, video and audio formats, PDF documents, and Flash movies. After this happens, it's typically possible for a visitor to save the file to their hard drive using their browser's File menu and/or the item's contextual menu ("right-clicking"); however, novice computer users may not be aware of this, or perhaps you would prefer that visitors view the media in a non-browser application - or maybe you just want to make sure that visitors will attain a copy of the file for themselves so they don't have to re-visit the site to access it again. File Force solves this problem by offering files with certain HTTP headers which cause the web browser to download the file to the user's disk instead of displaying it in a browser window.

Please note that File Force offers an easy solution to this problem, but it (or any other solution which requires a scripting language) is not recommended for high-traffic sites and/or sites that need to offer rather large files. Solutions which rely solely on the configuration of the web server should be implemented instead.

File Framework

File framework is a collection of modules which allows uploading and displaying different media type files. It uses a distributed content-addressable storage (CAS) system Bitcache for a file storage.

A metadata of the uploaded files is extracted using EXIF, getID3, pdfinfo and saved in the Resource Description Framework (RDF) storage.

A node of type file is created for each uploaded file. This gives a revision control and will integrate with the views.

Each file is converted to number of other MIME formats using available open source converters. For example a MS Word file can be automatically converted to PDF, OpenDocument Text (using OpenOffice daemon + JODConverter), Plain text (using catdoc), Flash video (using SWFTools), JPEG (using GhostScript) and Zip (using gzip). Converted (derived) files are saved in the Bitcache and their metadata is extracted and saved in the RDF along with the relation to the original file. All derived files are listed and can be downloaded.

File MIME

Drupal determines the MIME type of each uploaded file by applying a MIME extension mapping to the file name. The mapping is a hard-coded variable in the file_get_mimetype() function.

The File MIME module allows site administrators to add additional MIME extension mappings or modify the built-in mappings. For example, you may wish to serve FLAC files as audio/x-flac rather than application/x-flac.

On the File MIME settings page, the custom mappings can be extracted from the server's mime.types file and/or configured via a text field.

Uninstalling this module will delete the mime_extension_mapping variable, thus restoring Drupal's built-in mappings.

Allows site administrators to expose a particular file system folder and all of its subfolders with a fancy FTP-like interface to site visitors. File metainformation (via descript.ion and files.bss) is supported. The module also allows these metafiles to store special content, which can be parsed with a callback.
