Essential Audio

CyberGene

I tried for many hours. So, I definitely tried... But, I keep getting errors when I try adding a template to the upload extension, through this extension.

But, I have one solution for you. You can replace your Flarum installation's main extend.php code with the following:

<?php

use Flarum\Extend;
use Flarum\Foundation\AbstractServiceProvider;
use FoF\Upload\Contracts\Template;
use FoF\Upload\File;
use FoF\Upload\Helpers\Util;

class AudioTemplate implements Template
{
    public function tag(): string
    {
        return 'audio';
    }

    public function name(): string
    {
        return 'Audio template';
    }

    public function description(): string
    {
        return 'Audio template to use with Essential Audio';
    }

    public function preview(File $file): string
    {
        return '[play]' . $file->url . '[/play]';
    }
}

class AudioServiceProvider extends AbstractServiceProvider
{
    public function register()
    {
        $this->container->make(Util::class)->addRenderTemplate($this->container->make(AudioTemplate::class));
    }
}

return [
    (new Extend\ServiceProvider())
        ->register(AudioServiceProvider::class),
];

Now you can choose the audio template in the upload extension (with the right regular expression for audio files), and when an audio file is uploaded it will automatically have this Essential Audio extension's BBCode wrapped around the URL.

For some reason I can only get it to work this way right now. And, no download option.

At least you have some options now. Either do this, and/or use the updated Inline Audio player.

v1.1

• Marked optional dependencies as optional in composer.json to prevent issues with deactivating certain extensions

• Added player + download upload extension template

  • To do in future release, turn download link into the same download button other upload extension templates use - just ran out of time this morning but wanted to get this update out

CyberGene Just stick with another extension. This may not work with the way certain forums are installed. Subdirectory vs. non-subdirectory installations. I just added this disclaimer to the first post. Sorry this one couldn’t work out for you!

v1.2

• Fix audio library's file path so that it works on both sub directory and non-sub directory Flarum installations (Thanks @datitisev)
• Add font awesome icons
• Fix download link template
• Make download link actually download file

@CyberGene (If you want to try once again. Should work now.)

Still one quirk. Although I attempted to add the proper Mithril "onupdate" code, the player will not fully load for the person posting until refreshed. One theory is the audio library, the way it is coded, it just can't do it.

But, for people thinking about using this, don't worry, users will not have to refresh all the time.

This is a short-lived phenomenon that happens upon posting/editing. And if it happens, you click the play button, the page quickly refreshes, then you play the audio. It's not too bad of an experience. Worth it if you like to minimal look of this player and fof upload integration.
