get list of streams from server
|
|
| Jed Wood 2005-04-07, 5:50 pm |
| In a "regular" web server environment (for example, with PHP), it's a
pretty short an easy script to run through a directory and return a
list of files. What's the easiest way to accomplish this for streams in
FlashCom? I have these .flvs in the apps/myApp/streams/_definst_
directory. How can access that list dynamically? I realize I could
create a separate XML or Database list that updates whenever a new one
is added, but I want to just be able to FTP a new .flv into that
directory and have it update automatically.
Thanks,
-Jed

| right, I know how to make it work using php in a regular web directory.
Maybe it's no different, but my existing installation has FlashCom
running in a directory completely outside the regular web path. Does
that make sense? Is there maybe just some server-side actionscript I
could run?
Thanks,

| No, you cannot access the file system via ASC but this may be a feature that
is coming up in the next release.
What you can do is map your streams directory to a folder that's accessible
to PHP.

As long as permissions are set up right, php can access any folder on
the system - so if you are running on linux, for example, you could
either
a) set a cron job to update the file list every 15 min or some interfal
b) depending on how you are uploading, you could trigger the refresh of
the list when an upload is complete.
We are doing 'b'. Uploads come through a form so I know when a file is
uploaded successfully and I can refresh the list or xml playlists as
needed.
In another server setup, we have the www on a linux cluster and FCS on
a windows box. Same thing works by setting up a samba share between the
two servers - so I now have a fcs_apps dir on the cluster that points
to the apps dir on the fcs win server.
I would be very surprised if FCS 2 did not have server side file system
access.
hth,
Sean
