| Summary | 4029: SERVE_LOCALLY symbol (to serve self cached versions of third party hosted URLs) | ||||
| Description | Add a new Tempcode symbol, SERVE_LOCALLY. The purpose is a way to copy remote URLs locally using Tempcode, and serve them locally (maybe for speed, maybe to avoid hammering someone else's server, maybe as an automatic backup). You pass it a URL and the first time it runs it copies that URL to a local file using an algorithmicly-defined filename (i.e. if the local file does not exist yet). A second optional parameter would force a particular file extension (as we have no other way of replicating the original mime-type if we are just serving on-disk files with no database data). E.g. {$SERVE_LOCALLY,http://example.com/some-video,mp4} This example would download the file at "http://example.com/some-video" and save it in something like "uploads/localised_remote_urls/some-video.mp4". In this example the URL has no file extension, so I am forcing one so I know it will have the correct mime type served by Apache. The symbol would most likely be used in catalogue templates, when people enter URLs to media. | ||||
