Media Plugin
I'm using David Persson's excellent Media plugin, and found an odd bug. I use it in a Gallery plugin, and when the gallery contains a lot of images (maybe 100? haven't been able to determine exactly), deletion doesn't work. I'll use the usual mechanism of deleting, and the image doesn't get deleted. In this case, that means checking a checkbox next to each attachment and clicking the Save and Continue button. Every checked image is supposed to be deleted. Works fine if there's only 10 or so images, but this one client has hundreds. There isn't much custom code in the Gallery plugin, and the Media plugin is pretty much stock. Any ideas? Need any more information?

issues with media plugin generator behavior
Hey guys, I'm new to cakePHP and MVC as well so maybe I got some major design flaws in my attempt. Excuse my spelling as well since im not a native speaker. *What I'm trying to do:* I want to create a view where the user can re-crop uploaded images using the Jcrop Javascript lib http://deepliquid.com/content/Jcrop.html and the Media Plugin from David Persson https://github.com/bmcclure/CakePHP-Media-Plugin . *Setup:* All mediafiles are stored by the Attachment Model which is based of the one shipped with the Mediaplugin. Other Models can use the Attachment Model to store mediafiles. *My Attempt:* Step 1 (*View/Attachments/admin_edit.ctp*): Gather cropdata, data will injected to the form via javascript Step 2 (Controller/AttachmentsController.php) 2.1: Save attachment data 2.2: if attachment data was saved: process cropdata with use of *$this-Attachment-makeVersion($file, $instructions);* 2.3: redirect to attachments indexview using *$this-redirect(array($admin = true, 'controller' = 'attachments', 'action' = 'index'));* *Issue:* My general attempt is working, so all images get croped like i want them to but the following redirect isn't fired, instead a weird redirect to current action is executed somewhere. I narrowed it down to the *makeVersion() *method, when i comment that out, the attachment gets still saved and the redirect is working like it's supposed to. So it seems that *makeVersion() *has some weird sideeffect. Since i get redirected it is really hard to debug because i cannot inspect the request or check for errors. I tried with using debug();exit; to narrow it further down inside of the makeVersion() method but i really don't get this, theres no redirects called anywhere inside. *Code:* For anyone still reading and interested in helping me, check out the source here https://github.com/KingLoui/mediatest/blob/master/app/Controller/AttachmentsController.php .

Re: Media PLugin
of the Coupler is to tightly couple the physical image
to the record, so if the image doesn't exist neither should the record. I
tend to create a separate table for attachments for this very reason. A
user should be allowed to exist without an image.

I understand what you are saying but I don't think it's the full
answer. It's a perfectly valid use case to have a table that has an
optional image in it without the need to have a separate join table. The
absence of the image doesn't create any garbage data; the user row is
still
valid. A bio snap for a user is good example. For the plugin to simply
clear the whole data array because the optional image fields aren't
populated is nuts. If the fields are empty simply return true and let the
main model get on with its work.

That said, you can probably get away with passing an empty (or a path
to a default image) file key when you are creating the User using a hidden
field. This should allow the coupler to continue with the save. This may
save some empty garbage data that is probably unwanted.
The other solution would be to detach the Coupler behavior at runtime
when you don't want it to force you to have an image.

Media Plugin Question - Move an existing record
I am using David Perssons media pluginhttps://github.com/davidpersson/mediain 1.3 environment and I have more of an advanced usage question. Basically, I have existing model records that rely on a model field (slug) as part of the path to the image. Since this is a join table, the user can change the association to another record, making the media path invalid. Basically I have videos that belong to a show, and the show slug is used as part of the path. When users change shows (if they accidentally place the video in the wrong show) the dirname path is now invalid and the file is in the wrong place. I am trying to figure out how/if I can use the media plugin to move the file from the original path, to a new path. I know how to do that using the beforeSave (detect change) and afterSave (move if needed) but I'd like to use the media plugin to make the move as it automatically handles filename changes (adding -2 if the file exists) and handles the paths for you.

Re: CakePHP (2.1) Media Plugin - Multi File Upload
Just thought I'd post my slightly cleaner solution to this which makes
use of a modified version of the attachments element in the media
plugin. This allows you to use the attachment multiple times in a form
for when you have different groups of attachments i.e. photos, files,
videos etc. I'm no programmer, just a designer so there's probably a
better way to do it but I don't know it :)
To save me editing too much I'll just use my example of a
ProjectProfile model:
ProjectProfile.php
?php
App::uses('AppModel', 'Model');
class ProjectProfile extends AppModel {
var $name = 'ProjectProfile';
var $useDbConfig = 'default';
var $useTable = 'project_profiles';
var $actsAs = array('Media.Transfer',
'Media.Generator'
);
public $belongsTo = array(
'Project' = array(
'className' = 'Project',
'foreignKey' = 'pjID'
//'conditions' = '',
//'fields' = '',
//'order' = ''
)
);
var $hasMany = array(
'Photo' = array(
'className' = 'Media.Attachment',
'order' = 'Photo.basename, Photo.id',
'foreignKey' = 'foreign_key',
'conditions' = array('Photo.model' = 'ProjectProfile',
'Photo.group' = 'Photo'),
'dependent' = true),
'Attachment' = array(
'className' = 'Media.Attachment',
'order' = 'Attachment.basename, Attachment.id',
'foreignKey' = 'foreign_key',
'conditions' = array('Attachment.model' =
'ProjectProfile', 'Attachment.group' = 'Attachment'),
'dependent' = true)
);
}
ProjectProfilesControler.php
?php
App::uses('AppController', 'Controller');
class ProjectProfilesController extends AppController {
public function admin_edit($id = null) {
$this-ProjectProfile-id = $id;
if (!$this-ProjectProfile-exists()) {
throw new NotFoundException(__('Invalid project
profile'));
}
if ($this-request-is('post') || $this-request-is('put')) {
//convert cakephp html5 file upload
data array to media plugin
required format
$model =
Inflector::classify($this-params['controller']);
foreach
($this-request-data[$model]['assocAlias'] as
$assocAlias) {
$i = 0;
foreach
($this-request-data[$model][$assocAlias.'files'] as
$file) {
$this-set($this-request-data[$assocAlias][$i]['model'] =
$model);
$this-set($this-request-data[$assocAlias][$i]['group'] =
strtolower($assocAlias));
$this-set($this-request-data[$assocAlias][$i]['file'] =
$this-request-data[$model][$assocAlias.'files'][$i]);
$i++;
}
}
if
($this-ProjectProfile-saveAll($this-request-data)) {
$this-Session-setFlash(__('The project
profile has been
saved'));
$this-redirect(array('action' = 'admin_edit',
$id));
} else {
$this-Session-setFlash(__('The project
profile could not be
saved. Please, try again.'));
}
} else {
$this-request-data =
$this-ProjectProfile-read(null, $id);
}
$projects = $this-ProjectProfile-Project-find('list',
array('fields' = array('Project.pjID', 'Project.pntitle')));
$this-set(compact('projects'));
}
?
Then in the view/form:
admin_edit.php
div class=projectProfiles form
?php echo $this-Form-create('ProjectProfile',
array('type'='file'));?
fieldset
legend?php echo __('Admin Edit Project Profile'); ?/legend
?php
echo $this-Form-input('id');
echo $this-Form-input('pjID', array('label' = 'Project',
'options' = $projects));
echo $this-Form-input('description');
echo $this-Form-input('longitude');
echo $this-Form-input('latitude');
echo $this-Form-input('major', array('label' = 'Major
Project'));
//The num variable below is just used in the media
attachments element so the controller can loop through the array, so
just make sure you give each of the nums a sequential numerical order
Re: CakePHP (2.1) Media Plugin - Multi File Upload
Well this whole project has made me realise how much I suck at Ajax/JS
etc. I ended up getting this working using cakephp's HTML5 multi file
support and converting that data array to one that the media plugin
would understand (as per Jeremy's first suggestion!).
In case anybody else is looking to do this...
In the view add to your form:
echo $this-Form-input('files.', array('type' = 'file',
'multiple'));
So that'll allow you to select multiple files.
In the controller do something like:
$i = 0;
foreach ($this-request-data['Model']['files'] as $file) {
$this-set($this-request-data['Photo'][$i]['model'] = 'Model');
$this-set($this-request-data['Photo'][$i]['group'] = 'group');
$this-set($this-request-data['Photo'][$i]['file'] = $this-request-
data['Model']['files'][$i]);
$i++;
}
Then make sure you have saveAll:
if ($this-Model-saveAll($this-request-data)) { ...
I'm going to spend some time sorting it out better and making it as
reusable as possible. This solution is good for me as it's for an
intranet site so I have control over what browser people are using.
And if the users's browser doesn't support html5 then they can still
upload, just one file at a time.
Thanks for your suggestions Jeremy.

It sends each upload as a separate request, so write the controller code as

should be good. This method is preferred, because when javascript is
disabled the logic in the controller doesn't need to change will still work
(i.e., old school single upload).

'dependent' = true)
);
Then a saveAll in the controller when saving my record saves the
attached file(s).
This all works fine, however I'd really like to be able to upload
multiple files at once, which the plugin does support by doing this in
the form:
echo $this-Form-hidden('Photo.0.model', array('value' = 'Photo'));
echo $this-Form-input('Photo.0.file', array('type' = 'file');
echo $this-Form-hidden('Photo.1.model', array('value' = 'Photo'));
echo $this-Form-input('Photo.1.file', array('type' = 'file');
echo $this-Form-hidden('Photo.2.model', array('value' = 'Photo'));
echo $this-Form-input('Photo.2.file', array('type' = 'file');
But I think you'd agree that's a bit cumbersome to have to click
browse for each individual file. The simplist method I could see to to
allow multiple file uploads was to use the HTML5 multiple file section
option -
http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/veganista/2012/01/31/html_5_multip...
:
echo $this-Form-input('files.', array('type' = 'file',
'multiple'));
This allows you to shift click in the file browser to select multiple
files then puts the files into an array to save... however, this field
format isn't handled by the media plugin. Also, there'd be no way to
add the model, group etc. fields on the save as far as I could see.
So, does anybody know how I can handle multi file uploads with the
media plugin using the monolithic model? I'm open to all suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

'dependent' = true)

Then a saveAll in the controller when saving my record saves the
attached file(s).
This all works fine, however I'd really like to be able to upload
multiple files at once, which the plugin does support by doing this in
the form:
echo $this-Form-hidden('Photo.0.model', array('value' = 'Photo'));
echo $this-Form-input('Photo.0.file', array('type' = 'file');
echo $this-Form-hidden('Photo.1.model', array('value' = 'Photo'));
echo $this-Form-input('Photo.1.file', array('type' = 'file');
echo $this-Form-hidden('Photo.2.model', array('value' = 'Photo'));
echo $this-Form-input('Photo.2.file', array('type' = 'file');
But I think you'd agree that's a bit cumbersome to have to click
browse for each individual file. The simplist method I could see to to
allow multiple file uploads was to use the HTML5 multiple file section
option -
http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/veganista/2012/01/31/html_5_multiple_file_upload_with_cake
:
echo $this-Form-input('files.', array('type' = 'file',
'multiple'));
This allows you to shift click in the file browser to select multiple
files then puts the files into an array to save... however, this field
format isn't handled by the media plugin. Also, there'd be no way to
add the model, group etc. fields on the save as far as I could see.
So, does anybody know how I can handle multi file uploads with the
media plugin using the monolithic model? I'm open to all suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

Re: CakePHP (2.1) Media Plugin - Multi File Upload
You could try looping through the files array and saving them manually:
foreach $_FILES['files'] as $file {
// create data array containing fields such as a foreignKey, model, etc.
and save them as individual records
}
Or, instead of using the multiple option, you can try processing them each
as a single request so you don't have to change anything in your controller
but rather just how the view presents it. I've used drag and drop jQuery
plugins and the like to help with this. It's by far my favorite solution,
because it doesn't rely on browser specific features (such as HTML5
multiple upload).

Cake Media Plugin: How to enable .docx files for upload and retrieve errors if upload fails
Hello all,
I am using CakePHP 1.3 and Cake Media plugin
(https://github.com/davidpersson/media).
With the default setting I am able to upload images and pdf. I tried to
upload a .docx file and I am not able to upload it.
Following is the validate rule in my Document model
?php
class Document extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Document';
//media plugin behaviors
var $actsAs = array(
'Media.Transfer',
'Media.Coupler',
'Media.Generator'
);
var $validate = array(
'file' = array(
'mimeType' = array(
'rule' = array('checkMimeType', false, array (
'text/plain','application/pdf',
'application/msword',
'application/rtf','
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document'))
),
'size' = array(
'rule' = array('checkSize' , '120M')
)
));
}
I tried adding the extension values in my validate array but it did not
work either.
Let me know if I am missing something.
Another question how do I retrieve the errors for failing to upload from
the media plugin in my controller. Would $errors =
$this-Document-invalidFields(); work?
Regards
James

Media Plugin begginer problems....
Hi,
I'm trying to use David Person's Media Plugin with an hasMany association
and it doesn't work...
My environment:
- Win XP
- CakePHP 1.3.14
- PHP 5.3.8
- Media Plugin 1.3
Media plugin is in my App/plugins directory.
In my config/boostrap.php, I have: require
APP.'plugins/media/config/core.php
I've created a model called Attachment, with a database table
attachmentes defined like that:
ID
model
foreign_key
dirname
basename
checksum
alternative
group
created
modified
In Attachement Model, I've defined the behavior like that:
public $actsAs = array('Media.Transfer','Media.Coupler').
In a Apartment Model, I've defined an hasMany association like that:
public $hasMany = array('Photo' = array(
'className' = 'Media.Attachment',
'foreignKey' = 'foreign_key',
'dependent' = true,
'conditions' = array('Photo.model' = 'Apartment'),
));
In a Apartment edit view I've my form defined like that:
?php echo
$this-Form-create('Apartment',array('type'='file','action'='edit_photos'));
?
?php echo $this-Form-input('Apartment.id'); ?
?php echo
$this-Form-hidden('Attachment.0.model',array('value'='Apartment')); ?
?php echo $this-Form-end(__('Save',true)); ?
And finally, in my edit_photos method, I make a saveAll() like that:
$this-Apartment-saveAll($this-data, array('validate' = 'first'));
When I submit a valid file (a real jpg image), the saveAll return true, but
no file is uploaded in webroot/media/transfer/img directory and there is
no record saved in my attachments table...
I've tried to define an belongsTo association with Apartment in Attachment
model, no success.
I've tried to just using Media.Tranfer, no success.
What I miss?!
thanks by advance for any help.

Re: Media PLugin
I probably didn't take your reply the right way. Hopefully I wasn't too
harsh myself.
Anyway, hopefully you'll get a response from David soon. Did you ever get
to try out passing an empty 'file' key in the form (i.e., a hidden field)?
That way, the key would exist and the Coupler wouldn't unset the data. I
don't think this is a very elegant solution either, but I was curious if
you tried it out.

It's a perfectly valid use case to have a table that has an optional image
in it without the need to have a separate join table. The absence of the
image doesn't create any garbage data; the user row is still valid. A bio
snap for a user is good example. For the plugin to simply clear the whole

the fields are empty simply return true and let the main model get on with

The whole point of the Coupler is to tightly couple the physical image to

to create a separate table for attachments for this very reason. A user
should be allowed to exist without an image.

Re: Media PLugin
What about setting an empty hidden field in the view, like
echo $this-Form-hidden('Model.file', array('value' = ''));
I'd probably be more prone to just copy and paste the Coupler to my own
behaviors and modify it, or create a new small behavior that is just
dedicated to this task.

It's a perfectly valid use case to have a table that has an optional image
in it without the need to have a separate join table. The absence of the
image doesn't create any garbage data; the user row is still valid. A bio
snap for a user is good example. For the plugin to simply clear the whole
data array because the optional image fields aren't populated is nuts. If
the fields are empty simply return true and let the main model get on with

The whole point of the Coupler is to tightly couple the physical image
to the record, so if the image doesn't exist neither should the record. I
tend to create a separate table for attachments for this very reason. A
user should be allowed to exist without an image.

Awesome! So what is your directory structure (step 3)?
Is it
app/webroot/media/static/
app/webroot/media/filter/
app/transfer/
OR
app/webroot/media/static/
app/webroot/media/filter/
app/webroot/media/transfer/
Also, did the styles still get served properly after step 5
(protecting the transfer directory)?
I would love to see how you made it work! Would you mind posting an
example or emailing me the relevant code?
If I can get it working I think it would be great to add this as a
full-on tutorial in the wiki.
Thank you!!

So glad to see someone else is taking a crack at this...
Thanks to your post i was able to make a bit of headway...when i set
this up the first time I had troubles with getting things right in my
bootstrap.php file. However, i had a fairly easy time with other parts
of this, namely the actual file-upload and metadata fields.
I just set this up again using your instructions for bootstrap.php,
and with just a few more adjustments I have it uploading files to the
transfer directory and spitting out copies of the original, in
different sizes.
There are just two more things that I want to get working...I'd like
to use the Media Helper to pull in my uploaded images, and, most
importantly, I'd like to get the file-renaming functionality working
so that users don't overwrite each others files. This also makes it
tough to guess filenames if people go fishing for the uploaded images.
I am running this on a cake 1.3 setup in case anyone was wondering.

create a reference for beginners like me.
Here's what I've done so far (following the README and Configuration
wiki -http://wiki.github.com/davidpersson/media/configuration). Steps
marked with a * didn't go as documented :(
1. Download and extract the files to /path/to/your/app/plugins/media
2. Include the Media plugin config file in the /path/to/your/app/
config/bootstrap.php
define ( 'MEDIA_TRANSFER', APP . 'transfer' . DS);
define ( 'MEDIA_TRANSFER_URL', false);
require APP . 'plugins/media/config/core.php';
* 3. Create the directory structure using the console
cd /path/to/your/app/
../cake/console/cake media init
The Configuration wiki says that there should be a static, filter, and
transfer directory under the webroot/media/ directory but the command
above will put the transfer directory under the app directory. Not
sure if this is how it should be or if I did something wrong.
* 4. Copy/move/collect the media into the new location
../cake/console/cake media collect
But this results in a bunch of errors :(

Media PLugin
I'm using David Persson's media plugin. I have a users table that
contains the fields necessary to link to an image file, but a user
does not have to have an image. When I include the Media.Coupler
behaviour in the User model User-create always fails on User-save
when the user does not have an image because of the beforeSave in
coupler.php:
function beforeSave($Model) {
if (!$Model-exists()) {
if (!isset($Model-data[$Model-alias]['file'])) {
unset($Model-data[$Model-alias]); ---
clears down my User
data
return true;
}
} else {
This is unsetting the User data because the file key is missing. If I
comment out the unset my User-save is successful. The Media.Coupler
is working perfectly well for another table that hasMany images in an
associated table.
Is there a setting I need to configure or am I doing something else
wrong?

It should only unset the data if you are creating the User and it's missing
the 'file' key. If you are updating, you shouldn't *need* the 'file' key.

Re: Media PLugin
I didn't say I agreed with how it worked, I was just explaining what I
think the author's intended use case was. The question was if you were
missing a setting or doing anything wrong. You weren't, so I just threw out
some ideas based on how the Coupler works. Feel free to take it up with the
author or create a Coupler that works for you.
I'm glad that an empty image doesn't create garbage data, that thought was
based off of what the Coupler does down the road (check the file and
populate dirname and basename).

Re: Media PLugin
Gosh my reply sounded harsh on you Jeremy - that wasn't my intention. We've
commented out the line that unsets the data and it *all seems fine*, which also
feels dirty. The user records are saving correctly, we can subsequently add
images to user records and all other dedicated image tables that use the
coupler are functioning too. I did reach out to David yesterday, hoping to
learn more from him so that we can implement this properly and will report back.

If you used the media shell to protect your files, it *could* be why. Check for an .htaccess file under /webroot/media. If not, we'll need more information. Can you get to them locally?

Re: David Persson Media Plugin on IIS 7
Hi Jeremy, Thank you very much for you reply. I have not protected the media folders (no htaccess in media folder). Also Godaddy is the hosting provider and I am tied to IIS. I had already removed 'recursive permissions' from parent for the media, transfer and filter folder (and subfolders) and checked. 404 persists (even though I see a 200 in the IIS logs). I am unable to think further. Really need help here.

If the 404 isn't being sent by the server, it's probably being sent by Cake. Turn on debug to see what errors cake generates, or look at the debug log (/tmp/logs/debug.log).

Re: David Persson Media Plugin on IIS 7
Hi Jeremy,
Nothing in the app debug logs. However I looked at the IIS server logs. All
requests to the uploaded images are being routed through index.php. I have
used the rewrite rules from here -
http://book.cakephp.org/1.3/view/1636/URL-Rewrites-on-IIS7-Windows-hosts
I am not sure if I understand this right but I think that based on
'Redirect static resources' rule requests to images must just pass through.
However I see that they are going through index.php.
Here's the web.config -
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
configuration
system.webServer
rewrite
rules
rule name=Redirect static resources
stopProcessing=true
match url=^(ico|img|css|files|js)(.*)$/
action type=Rewrite url=app/webroot/{R:1}{R:2}
appendQueryString=false/
/rule
rule name=Imported Rule 1 stopProcessing=true
match url=^(.*)$ ignoreCase=false/
conditions logicalGrouping=MatchAll
add input={REQUEST_FILENAME}
matchType=IsDirectory negate=true/
add input={REQUEST_FILENAME} matchType=IsFile
negate=true/
/conditions
action type=Rewrite url=index.php?url={R:1}
appendQueryString=true/
/rule
rule name=Imported Rule 2 stopProcessing=true
match url=^$ ignoreCase=false/
action type=Rewrite url=//
/rule
rule name=Imported Rule 3 stopProcessing=true
match url=(.*) ignoreCase=false/
action type=Rewrite url=/{R:1}/
/rule
rule name=Imported Rule 4 stopProcessing=true
match url=^(.*)$ ignoreCase=false/
conditions logicalGrouping=MatchAll
add input={REQUEST_FILENAME}
matchType=IsDirectory negate=true/
add input={REQUEST_FILENAME} matchType=IsFile

/conditions
action type=Rewrite url=index.php?url={R:1}
appendQueryString=true/
/rule
/rules
/rewrite
!--urlCompression doStaticCompression=false/--
/system.webServer
/configuration
Please do let me know if there is any change I must make in this file.
thanks again very much.
regards,
John

CakePHP Media Plugin of David Persson and CDN
Hi I use the fantastic Media Plugin of David Persson. For now I have all my uploaded files in the same server I would ask if someone uses this plugin with some CDN and how use it with CDN?

Re: CakePHP Media Plugin of David Persson and CDN
Add a behavior that has an afterSave and afterDelete that take care of it
(or attach those actions to your model).
Here's a helper function to get a list of files based on your filters set
(hardcoded for images, but you can adapt it to use whatever types you
want). Once you have that list of files, you can move them to your CDN or
remove them if they were deleted.
function _getFiles($model, $id = null) {
if (!$id) {
return array();
}
$result = $model-read(null, $id);
// get all including filtered
$files = array();
$files[] = array(
'path' = $result[$model-alias]['file'],
'url' = MEDIA_TRANSFER_URL .
$result[$model-alias]['dirname'] . '/' . $result[$model-alias]['basename']
);
$extension = Mime_Type::guessExtension($files[0]['path']);
$filters = Configure::read('Media.filter.image');
foreach ($filters as $size = $filter) {
if (isset($filter['convert'])) {
$newextension =
Mime_Type::guessExtension($filter['convert']);
} else {
$newextension = $extension;
}
$newbasename = str_replace($extension, $newextension,
$result[$model-alias]['basename']);
$path = MEDIA_FILTER . $size . DS .
$result[$model-alias]['dirname'] . DS . $newbasename;
$url = MEDIA_FILTER_URL . $size . '/' .
$result[$model-alias]['dirname'] . '/'. $newbasename;
$files[] = compact('path', 'url');
}
return $files;
}

CakePHP Media Plugin quality of image
Hi
I'm using Media Plugin of David Persson (https://github.com/
davidpersson/media) and it is very very useful.
I would ask a question that I can't resolve.
My question is that when I do a filtering (fitInside) of an upload
image
Configure::write('Media.filter.image', array(
's' = array('convert' = 'image/jpeg',
'fitInside' = array(124, 81))
)
);
I note that the quality of the filtered image is not good I would ask
if there is a method to improve the quality.
Many Thanks

Re: Plupload and Media Plugin
Hey thanksfor your reply. I might not have expressed myself clearly enough (sorry). My problem is using a standard html form upload field leads to a browser timeout (javascript to keep it alive?). also some kind of visual feedback would be great to ensure the user the upload is still being processed. I hope it became clearer what my problem is. I played a bit with uploadify yesterday but I'm not convinced by the use of flash. Better ideas?

Can't Get Media Plugin to Work with Nested Models
I have been using the Media Plugin by David Persson and I think it's
great and has saved me a lot of time. I started out with an Invoice
model that hasMany Attachments and everything worked well. I then
added Materials to my invoice and tried added Attachments to a
specific material associated with the Invoice. The extra attachment
is read at the server and saved, but it is saved with the invoice_id,
not the specific material item on that invoice. Here is my data array
as it arrives at the server, via my iPhone app.
[Invoice] = Array
(
[project_id] = 2
[invoice_date] = 2011/10/01
[is_approved] = 1
)
[InvoicedMaterial] = Array
(
[0] = Array
(
[description] = Diesel Fuel
[amount] = 20
[unit_of_measure] = Gallons
)
)
[Attachment] = Array
(
[0] = Array
(
[model] = InvoicedMaterial
[alternative] = Diesel Fuel
[file] = Array
(
[name] = Diesel Fuel
[type] = image/jpeg
[tmp_name] = /tmp/phpP7Qy7k
[error] = 0
[size] = 901352
)
)
[1] = Array
(
[model] = Invoice
[alternative] = Signature
[file] = Array
(
[name] = 023C1C3D-B63F-442E-87DE-
FC3D270D8740
[type] = image/png
[tmp_name] = /tmp/phpkhczsG
[error] = 0
[size] = 5953
)
)
)
[InvoicedLabor] = Array
(
[0] = Array
(
[description] = Construction Foreman
[amount] = 10
[unit_of_measure] = hrs
)
)
)
My models are setup as follows:
Invoice:
var $hasMany = array(
'InvoicedEquipment' = array(
'className' = 'InvoicedEquipment',
'foreignKey' = 'invoice_id',
'dependent' = false,
'conditions' = '',
'fields' = '',
'order' = '',
'limit' = '',
'offset' = '',
'exclusive' = '',
'finderQuery' = '',

),
'InvoicedLabor' = array(

'conditions' = '',
'fields' = '',
'order' = '',
'limit' = '',

'conditions' = '',
'fields' = '',
'order' = '',
'limit' = '',
'offset' = '',
'exclusive' = '',
'finderQuery' = '',

'Attachment' = array(
'className' = 'Media.Attachment',
'foreignKey' = 'foreign_key',
'conditions' = array('Attachment.model' = 'Invoice'),
'dependent' = true,

'Attachment' = array(
'className' = 'Media.Attachment',
'foreignKey' = 'foreign_key',
'conditions' = array('Attachment.model' =
'InvoicedMaterial'),
'dependent' = true,
));
I'm passing all of the attachments as one array, based on the plugin
recipes documentation, but that doesn't seem right. Can the media
plugin handle a nested form being posted and figure out which
attachment should be associated with which model?

David Persson Media Plugin - data to different database fields
Hello, I just installed David Persson Media Plugin to use it with Ajax uploader. The tutorial from here: http://pixelcone.com/tutorial/ajax-file-upload-using-jquery-and-cakephp-media-plugin/ But my database have different field names. And I would like to save some more information, not only the dirname and basename. How to view what other information about the uploaded file i can save into the database and how to change the field names in which the information is written. Because of using ajax uploader i dont know how to pr($this-data) when uploading the file. -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.

David Perssons Media Plugin - does it work at all on windows
Hi there, I'm new to cakephp and trying to install Media Plugin in my
test app. By all accounts media plugin is the best plugin of it's
kind, the problem I have is I'm developing on my localhost on a
windows machine.
I get stuck when I get to doing the:
cake media init
chmod -R a+rwX app/webroot/media/{transfar,filter}
Where I just get an error: php fatal error: call to undefined method
MIME_Type::config()
Now, when I did some googling I discovered that there are quite a
number of possible issues with windows. I'm only wanting to upload a
photo and save a couple of sizes of it. Nothing too complex. But I'm
worried about knocking something together myself because (a) I don't
know enuf probably (b) at least with media plugin I know there's
validation and best practice etc etc.
My questions are:
what exactly are the problems with it and windows (I've seen the big
list but it means nothing to me) or at least, will they affect me with
what I want to do?
I'm not completely sure but I think that chmod thing I typed into the
console above makes a couple of folders and sets permissions, can
anyone tell me in english the manual way to do this so I can by pass
the error I was getting
Any help would be gratefully received :)

But it means that I can't add image_file field to registration form.
After the user registered and verified his account he should enter his
profile page and add an image.
I should try using the media plugin on a clean solution to decide where is
the problem

Re: Media plugin and user plugin
I didn't change register action at all.
I just added the Media behaviors to user model $actsAs.
Its working perfectly in other controllers.
Anyway I found a solution:
I needed the media plugin in order to upload the user profile image.
I removed the 'Media.Coupler' from the user model $actsAs
and add this code at user controller upload_image action:
public function upload_image() {
$this-User-Behaviors-attach('Media.Coupler');
...
...
$this-User-Behaviors-detach('Media.Coupler');
$this-redirect($this-referer());
}
But it means that I can't add image_file field to registration form.
After the user registered and verified his account he should enter his
profile page and add an image.

Re: Media plugin transferTo
You can maybe do it manualy : don't use Media.Transfer
But i don't know if you can use Media transfert methods in your
controller after saving the post.
something like that :
function add() {
$this-Post-create();
if ($this-Post-save($this-data)) {
[…]
$dirname =
'files/'.$this-Session-read('Auth.User.id').'/'.$this-
Post-id;
$this-Post-saveField('dirname', $dirname);
// transfert
} else {
// Error
}
}
The simplest would be to let Media plugin transfert in Media folder,
the path would be store in DB with dirname and basename.

David Persson's Media Plugin
Hello Folks, I'm working on my first project with cakephp and I ran into an issue when trying to implement file uploads: 1) I'm trying to use the media plugin for my application. I'm having problems to apply the polymorphic behavior to the model. Here are my models and the controller: models/attachment.php: http://pastie.org/private/qjofpjluwaxsgr4t99jw models/artist.php: http://pastie.org/private/oqhz5isx4npxdo1b0olvew controllers/artists_contoller.php: http://pastie.org/private/x1u10dbgc9awwpxhulqcw When I upload a new file, its saved correctly into the attachments table, but without the foreign_key or the model fields being set. 2) I tried as well to manually add this fields by extending $this- data in my controller, but I end up with a broken string in my database. Here is the controller with the manually specified model and foreign_key: http://pastie.org/private/wrgxo9sdspar3sdxgrpyyq and the field if its read by the Artist view: http://666kb.com/i/bt7evphoib2ca2m6y.gif Regards, Stefan. -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.

Re: David Persson - Media Plugin - Handing .docx and .xlsx uploads
Likewise Ryan, it hasn't really held me up making this app, just one of those niggles. Cricket - I have obviously googled the issue, and there are different MIME types for the later Office Doc types, and I am sure there is a way to fix the plugin to handle this issue. Thereason for my sparse explanation is that I know the author checks the group fairly regularly and figured if there was a 'quick fix' he'd know about it. The Media Plugin is an excellent example of a pluign and quite complicated, I would much rather implement an 'official' fix than dive in and start hacking it around myself. That said, if there isn't and the 'niggle' becomes to annoying then obviously I will.

David Persson Media Plugin
More than one of my apps are doing this so I am very confused. I am
using Show hasMany Attachment. I try and create a new record and it
uploads and resizes the image and saves the record to my Attachment
model without a foreign_key but with the correct model (Show).
However, it does NOT save the main record in my Show model. The flash
says the record has been saved but it hasn't. If I EDIT a preexisting
record, the image is uploaded, resized and saved to the Attachment db
with the foreign_key.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would really like to be able
to use this plugin as it looks amazing but can't figure this one
hurdle out.
Thank you.

Re: tiny question on Media plugin and CouplerBehavior
I would like to use Coupler behavior for the beforeDelete method and
the afterFind method, but finaly I don't use Coupler Behaviors
anymore, because i don't give a file in my form. Maybe that's why the
Model::exists() returns false, i don't know...
I modified the Mediafiles Model's beforeDelete method to delete all
files (Transfert and filters)
app/models/mediafile.php :

//file validation which only allowed jpeg and png to be uploaded
var $validate = array(
'file' = array(
'mimeType' = array(
'rule' = array('checkMimeType', false, array(
'image/jpeg',
'image/png'))
)
)
);
var $belongsTo = array(
'User' = array(

'Homeslide' = array(

return true;
}
$result = $this-find('first', array(
'conditions' = array($this-primaryKey = $this-id),
'fields' = array('dirname', 'basename'),
'recursive' = -1
));
if (empty($result)) {
return false;
}
$fileT = MEDIA_TRANSFER ;
$fileT .= $result[$this-alias]['dirname'];
$fileT .= DS . $result[$this-alias]['basename'];
$FileT = new File($fileT);
if (!$FileT-delete()) {
return false;
}
$pattern = MEDIA_FILTER . */;

Media Plugin + MM + image generated with an other extension than image transfered
Hi,
I have an other problem with media plugin.
when I upload a jpeg file with .jpeg extension, in my DB i have, for
exemple, picture.jpeg in the basename field.
But the Generator Behavior make filter versions with .jpg extension.
So i don't have a correct path for filter versions.
I have no conversion in the bootstrap.
How can i configure the file extensions to have the same extension
than the uploaded file?
is it GD who choose the extension?
I would like upload .jpg and .jpeg file.
in my config/bootstrap.php :
require APP . 'plugins' . DS . 'media' . DS . 'config' . DS .
'core.php';
$org = array('fitInside' = array(900, 900));
$small = array('fitCrop' = array(75, 75));
$medium = array('fitCrop' = array(300, 300));
$large = array('fitCrop' = array(900, 300));
Configure::write('Media.filter', array(
'audio' = array(),
'document' = array(),
'generic' = array(),
'image' = compact('small', 'medium', 'large', 'org'),
'video' = array()
));

Re: tiny question on Media plugin and CouplerBehavior
In fact, i don't need to use make method in my add fonction.
I just saw it enough to have dirname and basename for Generator

tiny question on Media plugin and CouplerBehavior
Hello,
I would like to use the Media plugin in my application and my question
is
in media/models/behaviors/coupler.php, what is the goal of the line
104 ? is it usefull for something ?
line 104 : unset($Model-data[$Model-alias]);
In my exemple, I have a table Mediafiles
CREATE TABLE `mediafiles` (
`id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
`dirname` varchar(100) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
`basename` varchar(60) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
`model` varchar(20) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
`foreign_key` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL,
`size` int(11) NOT NULL,
`width` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
`height` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
`created` datetime NOT NULL,
`modified` datetime NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci
AUTO_INCREMENT=11 ;
I use uploadify for uploading my file with progressbar and Media
plugin to add data in DB and make the thumb with Generator behavior.
models/mediafile.php :
class Mediafile extends AppModel{
var $name = Mediafile;
//media plugin behaviors
var $actsAs = array(
'Media.Coupler',
'Media.Generator'
);
//file validation which only allowed jpeg and png to be uploaded
var $validate = array(
'fileData' = array(
'mimeType' = array(
'rule' = array('checkMimeType', false, array(
'image/jpeg',
'image/png'))
)
)
);
var $belongsTo = array(
'User' = array(
'className' = 'User',
'foreignKey' = 'mediafile_id',
'conditions' = '',
'fields' = '',
'order' = ''
),
'Homeslide' = array(
'className' = 'Homeslide',
'foreignKey' = 'mediafile_id',
'conditions' = '',
'fields' = '',
'order' = ''
)
);
}
controllers/mediafiles_controller.php :
class MediafilesController extends AppController {
var $name = 'Mediafiles';
var $components = array('RequestHandler', 'Cuploadify.cuploadify');
function upload_img() {
$this-cuploadify-upload();
}
function add() {
$this-layout = admin;
if (!empty($this-data)) {
$this-data['Mediafile']['dirname'] = 'img';
// Thumb creation with Media Plugin
$this-Mediafile-make($this-data['Mediafile']['dirname'] . DS .
$this-data['Mediafile']['basename']);
// save in DB
if ($this-Mediafile-save($this-data)) {
$result = 'div id=outputsuccess/div';
$result .= 'div id=messagemediafile_id =
'.$this-Mediafile-
id.'/div';
}else{
$result = div id='output'failed/div;
$result .= 'div id=message'.
$this-Mediafile-
validationErrors['file'] .'/div';
}
$this-set(compact('result'));
}
}
}
I use a component for uploadify
controllers/components/cuploadify.php
So I upload the file in ajax (upload_img()) and then I submit the form
with data but without file input (add()).
In add function The generator part works fine.
But when I save the data, the Coupler BeforeSave function don't find
$Model [in media/models/behaviors/coupler.php line 102] ( I don't
understand why)
and then don't find file input (because there is no file input, only
hidden input)
then the $Model-data[$Model-alias] is unset [in media/models/
behaviors/coupler.php line 104]
and return true but don't save data in DB.
if I comment the line 104, the data are saved.
I would really appreciate a clarification on this point.
Thank you

Re: Edit with Media Plugin David Persson
Hi Alberto, Given you're using the coupler behavior and you replace a file but leave its corresponding record in tact, the file which gets replaced won't be deleted. This is by design. It is expected that when replacing a file you would rather go and delete the complete old record. Than create a new record with a new file associated with it. In the scenario described your old file would get deleted as the beforeDelete hook of the coupler behavior gets triggered and takes care of that. Now to the versions of the file. I've removed support for automatically deleting versions of a file in the current version of the media plugin. It turned out that how, which and when to delete the generated versions is highly application specific. However you can still take care of that yourself for example in the before or afterDelete of your file model. See https://gist.github.com/859371 for an example. - David -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.

Re: CakePHP Media Plugin
Hi Alberto, If I were you I'd just implement my own validation rule for that. See [1] for how that is accomplished in the plugin.

Re: more fields for David Persson's media plugin form?
Hello Tan Cheng,
Just add a new input to your form:
echo $form-input('file', array('type' = 'file', 'label' = false,
'class' = 'imageUpload'));
echo $form-input('title');
Be sure $this-data looks somewhat like this in your controller action:
array(
'Gallery' = array(
'file' = '...',
'title' = 'My Title'
)
);
Than just save the record as you normally do. Make sure there's a 'title'
column in the table schema. That's basically it.
In case you're using a separate table i.e. 'images' to store the file data
instead of storing it in the 'galleries' table follow these instructions:
* Gallery and Image models must be associated with each other
hasMany/hasOne/...
* Your form must produce a data array which reflects this structure (see
[1]).
* Use saveAll in your controller action.

more fields for David Persson's media plugin form?
Hi everyone,
I am now using David Persson's media plugin to handle the ajax upload
now.
But the upload form only shows the file type input, like
?php
echo $form-create('Gallery', array('type' = 'file'));
echo $form-input('file', array('type' = 'file', 'label' =
false,
'class' = 'imageUpload'));
echo $form-end();
?
What if I want to add more fields, like the title of the photo or some
description to add to my image table in db? I have added $form-
input('title'), but it doesn't show up at all.
Anyone had experience using this plugin? How to customise this?
Thank you very much!!

Re: Media plugin - usage questions
ad 1) You have to use the path constant MEDIA to identify where the files are stored and then combine it with the information for the requested file - directory and filename - adding it all together to get the filename with path information.

table does not. *If I use the baked Attachment view to add an entry
the attachments table DOES receive the row.
I have followed the documentation, updated the bootstrap file, etc.
Below is the relevant code from the Press Release model, controller
and view.
If you have any idea what I correct, please advise. Thanks!
A few simple questions also:
1. Do I need to add this ...
var $helpers = array('Media.Media');
... to my PressRelease model?
2. Do I need to add belongsTo data to the Attachment model?
-- Code Provided Below --
The Press Release model has this:
var $hasOne = array(
'Attachment' = array(
'className' = 'Media.Attachment',
'foreignKey' = 'foreign_key',
'conditions' = array('Attachment.model' = 'PressRelease'),
'dependent' = true,
));
The Press Release controller has this:
function admin_add() {
$this-layout = 'admin';
if (!empty($this-data)) {
$this-PressRelease-create();
if ($this-PressRelease-saveAll($this-data,
array('validate' =
'first'))) {
$this-Session-setFlash('The press release has
been saved.',
'flash_success');
$this-redirect(array('action' = 'index'));
} else {
$this-Session-setFlash('The press release
could not be saved.
Please, try again.', 'flash_error');
}
}
$projects = $this-PressRelease-Project-find('list');
$this-set(compact('projects'));
}
The form in the view looks like this:
div class=pressReleases form
?php echo $this-Form-create('PressRelease', array('enctype' =
'multipart/form-data'));?
fieldset
legend?php __('Add Press Release'); ?/legend
?php
$current_year = date('Y');
$max_year = $current_year + 2;
$unix_timestamp = strtotime('now');
echo $this-Form-input('date', array('type'='date',
'minYear'=2005, 'maxYear'=$max_year, 'selected'=$unix_timestamp));
echo $this-Form-input('title');
echo $this-Form-input('file', array('label' = 'File', 'type'
=
'file'));
echo $this-Form-input('Project',array('label'='Related
Project(s)', 'multiple' = 'checkbox'));
?
/fieldset
?php echo $this-Form-end(__('Add Press Release', true));?
/div

Re: Media Plugin - Newbie Questions
I don't know anything about the Media plugin, however your problem may
be with how you have created your inputs in the view. Have you looked
at the structure of $this-data once the form has been submitted to
your action (admin_add)? In order for saveAll() to work. It should
look something like:
array(
[PressRelease]=array(
[date]=// some date
. // other fields
.
[Attachment]=array(
[file]=// some file name
In your view you have:
echo $this-Form-input('file', array('label' = 'File', 'type'
='file'));
It may be as simple as changing this to:
echo $this-Form-input('Attachment.file', array('label' = 'File',
'type' ='file'));
BTW, saveAll() will save related model data ONLY if the array passed
is properly structured AND it is only one level deep.
HTH,
Ken

Re: David Persson Media Plugin - regenerate image versions
Hi, Have a look at the Media shell. It comes with the plugin and features one specific task which may be helpful in your situation. $ cake media make Will prompt you for source and destination path and will then recreate versions of each file. - David -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.

David Persson Media Plugin - regenerate image versions
Hi there, I have very successfully got the Media/Attachments plugin working on my new site, and I'm really impressed, but have run into a slight problem... The site is a rebuild of an existing site and has around 2000 images attached to news stories (the app folder weighs in at around 900mb!), now I have copied the images into the 'filter' 'img' directory and manually resized them as per the config settings for the plugin and do some mysql kung fu to import them into the database table. However, this is fine locally, but it's going to be a RIGHT nightmare to upload and none of the images have checksum etc. What I would like to be able to is some kind of batch add/resize for all the images if they are in the 'transfer' directory once it's on the server, maybe a is the requested image in the transfer directory and not the filter directory? If now, run the resizing process... So the resizing is done when the news story is first viewed... Does this seem doable? TIA, d. -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
