@Flukey: Thanks a lot for your corrections
I've added an other advise: store files in the "data" directory when
possible.
Does it make sense to you ? Am I the only one to store my files
there ?
The new part:
Avoid to use the uploads directory when you can
Some uploaded files - like user avatars - need to be publicly
accessible and are rendered very often by the server, so the uploads
directory is the right place for them.
But many other user files are private or rarely rendered. All these
files chould be stored in the data directory (documentation).
1/ Create a files sub directory: mkdir /path/to/my/sfProject/data/
files
2/ Change the path option in your forms:
$this->validatorSchema['driver_licence_pic'] = new
sfValidatorFile(array(
'mime_types' => 'web_images',
'path' => sfConfig::get('sf_data_dir').'/files/
driver_licence',
));
3/ And add a dedicated route to render the file.
