This would overwrite remote URLs with local verisons which removes source href...
The reason one might have filenames for remote URLs is that StoreRemoteMedia plugin
fetches them and uses the filename field.
The code was so involved there was even a comment asking for a refactor.
Now, File_redirection::where always returns a nice File_redirection
object instead of an array or string or nothing. The object is
either one which already existed or else a new, unsaved object.
Instead of duplicating "does it exist" checks everywhere, do it in
File_redirection::where. You either get what exists or something to save.
An unsaved File_redirection may be paired with an unsaved File.
You will want to save the File first (using ->saveFile()) and put the
id in File_redirection#file_id before saving.
If a new file is uploaded, it will be matched with a previously uploaded
file so we don't have to store duplicates. SHA256 is random enough and
also unlikely enough to cause collisions.
If this merge throws exception on scripts/upgrade.php and you recently
tried a nightly (i.e. during 2015-02-19) then just go back a commit or two
and try again.
Or delete the duplicate entries. Find the entries like this:
SELECT COUNT(*), urlhash FROM file_redirection
GROUP BY urlhash
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1;
then for each urlhash (or come up with a smart SQL query) do:
DELETE FROM file_redirection WHERE urlhash='hashfrompreviousquery' LIMIT 1;
You'll have to remove duplicates more than once if you have >2 identical
urlhash entries. LIMIT -1 might do that for you. I'm not sure.
Default is now to take still thumbnails of animated GIFs and then
show them as originals in an AttachmentListItem. The still frames
are mostly used with front-ends like qvitter.
In some development code I noticed that when handling File objects without
filename values, there would be problems calling getPath and such.
The width and height value testing will be validated later anyway, and by
removing such a narrow test we can use events to generate thumbnails of
media formats supported by recently added plugins on demand.
We're now capable of doing image rotation for thumbnails based on
EXIF orientation data. Also, thumbnails are tracked by filenames and
thus we can delete them from storage when we feel like it.
