Extension talk:SimpleUploads.php
From Organic Design wiki
Notes for implementation
- Apache config is required to enable webdav for a directory
- Permissions need to be set for the directory: chown www-data:www-data /foo/bar
- Separate dir for each user
- eg /var/www/wikis/od/uploads/$username
- Script required to stat directory every few seconds
- Launched by init.d stays alive in an infinite loop with a 1 sec sleep in it
- Script must link in with MW objects and be able to query and create pages
- Refer to mediawiki-1.11.0/maintenance scripts that are designed to run standalone
- Perhaps jobs api
- Special page to show results of recent operations and link to created pages
- Uploaded files added to category "$username's recently uploaded files"
