files

Well things are wrapping up and I can happily report the public/private uploads are working (more or less)!

So public/private file handling has been progressing pretty well. I've still been having some trouble fixing uploads in HEAD and the changing code base has made this a challenge. However I've become much better at debugging and I'm quickly become a bazaar wizz. The project is still on target to be completed soon and the code should be operating properly quickly. For those interested in the progress you can use bazaar to check out the code from http://drupal.codeincarnate.com.

Well, files have been coming along well. Full working private/public upload and download functionality is nearly working and a alpha release for testing will be coming in the very near future. Most of the work left that remains is with file_set_private which is a very important function in the entire scheme of things. As always if you want to get the code bazaar can be used, just point it at http://drupal.codeincarnate.com. Things may be a little delayed because I'm turning 21 tomorrow. Bottoms up!

So files are progressing very well. Work with file_create_url and file_create_path is mostly done but there is still some testing left to do. This is one major portion of getting private/public files working as these functions are responsible for creating the download URLs and paths for files. As always you can check out the code using bazaar from http://drupal.codeincarnate.com. In the near future I'll be looking for testers so if anyone is interested drop me a message or holler at me on IRC if you're interested.

So this has been a good week for files. File uploads are mostly completely working and interfaces are being changed over to use the new file object interface. Right now there is an expected release date of August 5th and most of the code should be done by then. As usual you can check out the current code at http://drupal.codeincarnate.com with bazaar.

So this week saw the successful completion of file uploads! When files are uploaded a private flag is successfully set in the database indicating whether the file should be private or public. There is more work to do to transfer some functions over to the new file object interface and also an administrative interface will probably be made. As per the usual you can check out the latest code with bazaar from http://drupal.codeincarnate.com.

So work on public and private files is really starting to pick up. A fair amount of work has gone into file.inc which includes adding a path for private files, switching file_create_url to use the database and adding some functions to swtich files to public or private. Things are becoming somewhat functional and progress is going well. If you want to check out the changes you can use bazaar to grab the code at http://drupal.codeincarnate.com.

So my computer died completely and I've been in the process of moving. But nonetheless I've made some progress. Since I am going to be making a batch against core I decided to make a bazaar branch. I'm mirroring this publicly and is accessible by the following command if you run linux.

I'll be updating this mirror periodically and a lot more stuff will be going into it in the next couple weeks.

So this has been the quite week and I've been in the process of moving and thus been quite busy. Nonetheless most of the changes have been in upload.module so that there is now some visible change. Stayed tuned as the development pace will just pick up from here.
