$maxbytes = -1,
$areamaxbytes = FILE_AREA_MAX_BYTES_UNLIMITED )

This function is used to copy a moodle file to draft area.

It DOES NOT check if the user is allowed to access this file because the actual file can be located in the area where user does not have access to but there is an alias to this file in the area where user CAN access it. file_is_accessible should be called for alias location before calling this function.

◆ reference_file_selected()

repository::reference_file_selected ( $reference,
$context,
$component,
$filearea,
$itemid )
inherited

reference_file_selected

This function is called when a controlled link file is selected in a file picker and the form is saved. The expected behaviour for repositories supporting controlled links is to

  • copy the file to the moodle system account
  • put it in a folder that reflects the context it is being used
  • make sure the sharing permissions are correct (read-only with the link)
  • return a new reference string pointing to the newly copied file.
Parameters
string$referencethis reference is generated by repository\get_file_reference()
context$contextthe target context for this new file.
string$componentthe target component for this new file.
string$fileareathe target filearea for this new file.
string$itemidthe target itemid for this new file.
Return values
stringupdated reference (final one before it's saved to db).

Reimplemented in repository_nextcloud, and repository_onedrive.

◆ reset_caches()

◆ search()

repository_local::search ( $q,
$page = 1 )

Search through all the files.

This method will do a raw search through the database, then will try to match with files that a user can access. A maximum of 50 files will be returned at a time, excluding possible duplicates found along the way.

Queries are done in chunk of 100 files to prevent too many records to be fetched at once. When too many files are not included, or a maximum of 10 queries are performed we consider that this was the last page.

Parameters
String$qThe query string.
integer$pageThe page number.
Return values
arrayof results.

Reimplemented from repository.

Repository method to serve the referenced file.

See also
send_stored_file
Parameters
stored_file$storedfilethe file that contains the reference
int$lifetimeNumber of seconds before the file should expire from caches (null means $CFG->filelifetime)

bool$forcedownloadIf true (default false), forces download of file rather than view in browser/plugin
array$optionsadditional options affecting the file serving

◆ send_relative_file()

repository::send_relative_file ( stored_file $mainfile,

Used to allow relative file linking within a repository without creating file records for linked files

Repositories that overwrite this must be very careful - see filesystem repository for example.

Parameters

string$relativepaththe relative path to the file we are trying to access.

Reimplemented in repository_filesystem.

◆ supported_filetypes()

◆ sync_external_file()

$resetsynchistory = false )
staticinherited

Function repository\sync_external_file() is deprecated.

Use repository\sync_reference instead

Deprecated
since Moodle 2.6 MDL-42016 - please do not use this function any more.
See also
repository\sync_reference()

◆ sync_reference()

repository::sync_reference ( stored_file $file)
inherited

Performs synchronisation of an external file if the previous one has expired.

This function must be implemented for external repositories supporting FILE_REFERENCE, it is called for existing aliases when their filesize, contenthash or timemodified are requested. It is not called for internal repositories (see repository::has_moodle_files()), references to internal files are updated immediately when source is modified.

Referenced files may optionally keep their content in Moodle filepool (for thumbnail generation or to be able to serve cached copy). In this case both contenthash and filesize need to be synchronized. Otherwise repositories should use contenthash of empty file and correct filesize in bytes.

Note that this function may be run for EACH file that needs to be synchronised at the moment. If anything is being downloaded or requested from external sources there should be a small timeout. The synchronisation is performed to update the size of the file and/or to update image and re-generated image preview. There is nothing fatal if syncronisation fails but it is fatal if syncronisation takes too long and hangs the script generating a page.

Note: If you wish to call $file->get_filesize(), $file->get_contenthash() or $file->get_timemodified() make sure that recursion does not happen.

Called from stored_file::sync_external_file()

@uses stored_file\set_missingsource() @uses stored_file\set_synchronized()

Parameters
stored_file$file
Return values
boolfalse when file does not need synchronisation, true if it was synchronised

Reimplemented in repository_dropbox, repository_equella, repository_filesystem, and repository_nextcloud.

◆ update_draftfile()

static repository::update_draftfile ( $draftid,
$filepath,
$filename,
$updatedata )
staticinherited

Updates a file in draft filearea.

This function can only update fields filepath, filename, author, license. If anything (except filepath) is updated, timemodified is set to current time. If filename or filepath is updated the file unconnects from it's origin and therefore all references to it will be converted to copies when filearea is saved.

Parameters
int$draftid
string$filepathpath to the directory containing the file, or full path in case of directory
string$filenamename of the file, or '.' in case of directory
array$updatedataarray of fields to change (only filename, filepath, license and/or author can be updated)
