In my environment, most files are stored in AWS S3. However, I want exported files from report lists to be stored locally. Using the following code, the user can choose a different storage location for certain types of attachments.
The attachment entity has a few fields you can use to make decisions about where to store files. For my use case, I want all files related to reports to be stored locally instead of in AWS S3. To add flexibility, a new configuration parameter called StorageForReportAttachments is exposed, which can be set in data/config.php if desired.
Tested on V8.1.1
PHP Code:
File: custom/Espo/Custom/Hooks/Attachment/AttachmentHook.php
<?php
namespace Espo\Custom\Hooks\Attachment;
use Espo\Core\Exceptions\Error;
use Espo\Core\Utils\Config;
use Espo\ORM\Entity;
use DateTime;
class AttachmentHook
{
public function __construct(
private Config $config
) { }
public function beforeSave(Entity $entity, array $options): void {
if($entity->get("relatedType") == "Report") {
$entity->set("storage", $this->config->get("StorageForReportAttachments", "EspoUploadDir"));
}
}
