Feature request: Media uploader / Media manager
CosmoMyzrailGorynych opened this issue · comments
For now, if I need to embed an image, I can either use predefined image fields or use enduro upload
, or just place it somewhere and link to it. I wish there would be a simple button for uploading images so I can just copy a link to it and use in code or admin ui.
It would also great if a user could manage uploaded resources from admin panel.
The first part must be easy as image input fields in admin ui already upload images to direct_uploads
folder. Maybe it is even possible to do such a thing using just admin extensions. The second certainly requires adding new API methods.
[EDIT]
This task seems to be divisible into three smaller tasks:
- Add an upload button (doing it);
- Add a dedicated page for managing uploaded media;
- Make a button which allows users to select one of existing files (reuses a previous one).
I like the idea.
Adding a button that would open a list of all uploaded images?
I guess we can reuse admin interface to keep track of these images. I guess you can roll this feature just by using globalizers. You know create a global page global/media_manager.js
and use globalizer to choose from these.
