Flagrow image uploader for Flarum forum messages

luceos

athul If you'd be so kind to create an issue on github about this, we might be able to implement a more permanent solution.

@matpompili. Great extension! Already using it ? Just wondering how hard or much work, it would be to copy this extension, and make it an extension for file uploads? Is this something you are looking at or planning to do? I guess the extension is not that much different from it.

Hope to hear from you soon!

luceos

Yuri it's something we were considering. If Flarum pushes towards a stable release I think this extension will evolve into a general upload extension.

Yuri

luceos Looking forward to that. Thanks!

Hi can you show loading process when uploading. If user upload an big image, will dont know how long it's complete

matpompili HI! We have developed a migration script that, among other things, is capable of exporting image attachments, populating flagrow_images DB table, then adding the inline image link in the relevant messages. (see https://discuss.flarum.org/d/3585-smf2-to-flarum-migration-script-alpha-3)
In our SMF forum the attachment are divided in different sub-folders, one for each year, to help us storing efficiently our >19000 files.
I was wondering whether you could implement (maybe as an option) the same solution in your extension, helping forums with numerous attachments keeping things a bit tidier (a bit similar to what WordPress does natively for storing media files).
The directory structure could be something like
flarum_install_dir/assets/images/2016
flarum_install_dir/assets/images/2017
flarum_install_dir/assets/images/2018...

Thanks in advance!

luceos

marcozambi I think you can create a small extension to override that logic from an event, from the top of my head.

marcozambi

luceos Yes, I think it would be possible. At the moment I'm trying to learn extension development but I confess that the documentation provided feels a bit out of date, and maybe a bit poor in details.
Please take no offense, I think you all guys have an excellent product here, but if you want to engage more developers a bit more effort on the docs and news about the project are really important. ?
In the meantime I'll continue my learning.

can you add support for multi images upload.

Feature Request : og:image meta tag if there is a image in the thread. Facebook is picking the image bbcode instead of the image

I expected that max-size forces any image to the setted size, means, a graphic of maybe 150px will be scaled to 1000px when setted to max-size.

But hey, it is a nice plugin anyway, i just disabled this feature for now and it does it's job great. Thanks.

luceos

tchncs it's a max size, not a rescale size; forcing a certain image to scale up would have a detrimental effect on all images on a forum. ?

tchncs

But it rescaled the small images to the max-size.

Does this extension work for beta 6?

luceos

arjoni no not yet, once I moved to my new home I'll update all Flagrow related extensions as a first priority.

RomaldyMinaya please don't mention one Flagrow author specifically, Matteo is currently inactive for our team. As to your question, if you are able, please open an issue on Github for this: https://github.com/flagrow/flarum-ext-image-upload

On a more general note, once I've made the package compatible with B6, I will most likely start working on a more general file upload extension that includes all functionality of this one, but also allows for other files to be uploaded.

luceos

Just tagged 0.3.0 compatible with beta 6

Worked on my install, if you encounter any issues, please add an issue:

https://github.com/flagrow/flarum-ext-image-upload/issues

~~Update: Damn seems the settings tab is not working.~~

RomaldyMinaya

Hi @matpompili is there any way possible to allow users to paste the image from clipboard using CTRL-V ?
This feature would be very useful when using the windows snipping tool.

luceos

You are the best! Looking really forward to a general file upload extension, we were already in contact but i did not have the time to realize my thoughts.

I'm wishing you a lot of luck in your new home! If you need any help in testing just write me a line.

luceos I will most likely start working on a more general file upload extension

I am quite excited about this! Having such an extension available will open the doors for our organization to more widely utilize our forum for communication. Do you anticipate that Flarum would be developing a similar native extension for file uploads? Or do you anticipate that this one would be the one most widely adopted? I have that same question for this image uploader extension. I've been hesitant to implement it as I consider forward compatibility. Thanks for your work on these extensions and the Flarum project, in general.

luceos answered your question a few posts ago, saying:

Hi @luceos,

I made a couple of PRs on github with some miror language corrections for both English and French.

Cheers!

luceos

iarwain thanks! I will check them out, I have been moving so wasn't able to check for github activity.
