Bulk import images

[Dave Koelmeyer <da...@davekoelmeyer.co.nz>]

Hi All,

Quick and potentially stupid question - is there a way to easily import 
more than one image at a time into JSPWiki content? I am running version 
2.8.3.

Cheers,

Hi Harry,

Thanks for your reply - I was being a bit vague (several late nights 
here), rather than images specifically I'm after the ability to upload 
multiple attachments at once. Presently the procedure I follow while 
editing a JSPWiki page is to click on the "Attach" tab which gives me a 
single "Select file" field and a browse button, a field for a change 
note, and an upload button. As far as I can tell, it's a one file per 
upload process. Ideally I would have the ability to browse and attach 
several files (e.g. several "Select file" fields or something), and 
upload them in one go.

Cheers,

For those still interested, bulk attachment import has landed in HADDOCK
(yay!) and seems to work well.

If you just bulk-ftp the images to a directory collection which is 
accessible to the jspwiki webapp, then you can use my 
PhotoCollectionPlugin to serve the images up as "potential" wiki pages.

Dave,,

What exactly do you mean with "bulk importing" ?
Do you want all images attached to one jspwiki page?
Do you mean uploading a zipfile containing images?

As far as I know there is no bulk function, depending on what exactly the
scenario is, you could copy the images to the jspwiki attachment directory
with the right names and in the right directories and creating the proper
metadata, but that is very tricky, I would not recommend it.

Harry
