But your link is not an action, and link_to() uses routing...
and also that i could use
You can use the function _compute_public_path($source, $dir, $ext,
$absolute = false)
$path = _compute_public_path('myfilename', 'myfolder','','absolute');
echo link_to('download file', $path);

thanks people but this solves the purpose
a href=?php echo

target=_blankdownload attachement/a
public_path returns a url like
http://localhost:8080/myproject/web/uploads/b3a2fe88caa89fa97a7443cdcf55e608.pdf
exactly what was needed...

Not sxure what the problem is since you anwered your own
That produces an error saying the rout is not defined... N plus i want
the link to be like http://localhost:8080/sfproject/web/uploads/myfile.pdf
so when I deploy it on the server The URL will automatically become
www.mydomain.com/uploads/myfile.pdf
... Right now I have to sort of hard
Yes I believe it is the solution i was looking for... I will try it
out as soon as I get back home... Thanks a lot. :)

Check out the public_path() helper, I believe that's what you need.

The other thing is, you dont really need urls ending in .pdf to get passed
to the symfony controller. So you could edit your
link_to is meant from internal uri's, and by that I mean either a
route name (@whatever) or a module/action string. I've had trouble
with this myself. You've probably already found that it strips off
the 'uploads' part of the string.
To get this to work you'll have to add the absolute=true
11 matches
