Upload Request 3

With the "Upload Request" plugin you can create an upload request for external user on every node. The Upload Request will generate a link, which can be used to provide it to any customer to upload files to the specific node.

Properties

To be configured in {home}/appserver/conf/custom.properties

uploadRequest.license

type: String, required: yes, default: -

The license for this plugin (determines validity, expiration date). This is delivered by brix after you supply the customer's name (xxx in {home}/appserver/conf/xxx.license.dat) e.g. uploadRequest.license=beJUxOSxNpeLBF078TscfZHIuSdeZ068Q65

uploadRequest.visibleForGroup

type: numbers, required: no, default: -

Restrict the use of the plugin to these user group ID. If it's empty only superadmins can see, create and edit any Upload Requests. Fill in user group id's, which are separated with a coma to permit to other users.

Branding

In order to add custom brandings to the Upload Request front-end, create the folder appserver/META-INF/resources/brandings/uploadRequest and add arbitrary CSS-files. These will then be available for selection in the back-end. Due to the nature of Angular you'll probably have to !important most things. Example:

.request-header {
    text-align: center;
    color: white;
    background-color: #dd4e58;
    padding-top: 12px;
}
.ngx-file-drop__drop-zone {
    border-color: #dd4e58 !important;
}
.ngx-file-drop__content {
    color: #dd4e58 !important;
}
.mat-progress-bar-buffer {
    background-color: #ddd !important;
}
.mat-progress-bar-fill::after {
    background-color: #dd4e58 !important;
}
