#Fast Upload TV

A Template Resource Input Filter for MODx Revolution 2.2+

It is fork from Alan Pich Simple File Upload TV.

The Fast Upload TV input provides the simplest possible file upload experience for the end user, offering single-button file selection & uploading without the use of the MODx file manager. File save paths are set on the TV itself, so the content-editor doesn't have to worry about where to save to.

Install this package through the Package Manager or download from the MODx Extras Repository. Once installed, 'Fast Upload TV' will become an option in the TV Input Type selection list.

While hiding many of these features from the Resource editor, Fast Upload TVs are very customisable! They work with any stream-based (filesystem) mediasource, can be saved to a custom path within the source, and optionally prefix a string to the filename in order to make maintainance and curation of uploaded files easier over time. You can even restrict file upload types by specifying required MIME types!

Both the file Save Path and File Prefix fields can be customised by editing the corresponding fields in the TV Input Options tab. Both options can be customized dynamically with several placeholders:

• {id} - Resource ID
• {pid} - Resource Parent ID
• {alias} - Resource Alias (IMPORTANT! Alias can not contain spetssivolov prohibited OS)
• {palias} - Resource Parent Alias (IMPORTANT! Alias can not contain spetssivolov prohibited OS)
• {tid} - TV ID
• {uid} - User ID
• {rand} - Random string
• {t} - Timestamp
• {y} - Year
• {m} - Month
• {d} - Day
• {h} - Hour
• {i} - Minute
• {s} - Second

You can also specify a snippet that returns a path string for advanced routing by using the @SNIPPET prefix e.g. @SNIPPET myPathingSnippet

MIME types describe the type of file to be uploaded and relate to the file extension. Multiple upload types can be specified using a comma-separated list.

e.g. image/jpeg, image/png, application/pdf
