Re: [xwiki-users] Download resume for large files - no way?

2011-09-05 Thread Paul Libbrecht
Dimitry,

wouldn't honouring the Range http-header be sufficient and a lot more 
widespread?
I think I know it would honour wget --continue for example.

BitTorrent transmission, although clearly more efficient, is not too well 
tolerated in many network environments as it is commonly used for the 
transmission of things that are somewhat suspicious.

 Hi!
 
 By default, XWiki doesn't have resume ability for downloads. Is there any 
 way to turn it on? From the moment  file system storage was implemented into 
 XE it makes sence. 
 And another question-idea:
 On uploading big (all) files, XWiki creates hash for torrent, stores it 
 together with file.
 On Download request - user gets torrent file and starts download.
 Server side strats seeding and after download is complete - kills seeding 
 process from torrent-client.
 Upload can be done almost the same way. 
 
 The question is: 
 Does existing XWiki functionality allow to implement such a upload-download 
 technology?
 
 Thanks in advance,

It's not implemented yet, but it could easily be implemented yet if 
there's demand for this feature.

Well, since it's Java, anything should be possible given the right 
amount of time. Being Open Source, any feature can get implemented if 
there's enough need for it, but for the moment there haven't been any 
requests for such thing, so the best way to see this committed is to 
come up with patches.

2011-09-05 Thread Haru Mamburu
Thanks a lot,

I put the resume feature request into Jira. :-)
File system storage is implemented and now I'm precisely looking for the right 
way to use XE in a kind of  non-profit library project, where attachments could 
be from 1KB to approx 1Gb in one piece. That is why I'm doing field test to 
avoid surprises in the nearest future. 
My first preliminary conclusion: it's worth to use XE in such a way, but for 
now there are too many things go unusual way to use XE as is. I'm going to run 
project anyway, so would be glad for futher cooperation to make file storage 
and big files operation more seamless both for administrators and end-users.

Kind regards

Dmitry

Sure, we welcome as much feedback about the FS attachment storage as 
possible. It's something quite new and worthy of improvements.
