Change default path for upload and cache storage

Post by Johnsnow » Thu Mar 03, 2022 07:20 AM

Hi,

I had created sample project by following this tutorial.
https://www.vintasoft.com/docs/vsimagin ... ation.html

Its working fine, but Its currently upload the files in the folder "wwwroot/UploadedImageFiles", and creating all cache data in the folder "wwwroot/VintasoftCache", I want to change these paths.

Please advise. And also can you advise to clear cache data programmatically after save/burn annotations.

Thanks,

Hi John,
Its working fine, but Its currently upload the files in the folder "wwwroot/UploadedImageFiles", and creating all cache data in the folder "wwwroot/VintasoftCache", I want to change these paths. If you want to change name of upload directory from "UploadedImageFiles" to other name in ASP.NET Core project, you need to do the following steps:

Create custom API controller that is derived from VintaSoft API controller. For example, create MyVintasoftImageApiController class derived from Vintasoft.Imaging.AspNetCore.ApiControllers.VintasoftImageApiController class. Remember, you need to create custom API controller for each used web service, i.e. VintasoftImageApiController, VintasoftImageCollectionApiController, etc.

In created class override the CreateSessionDataStorage method. Here is example:

protected override IDataStorage CreateSessionDataStorage(string sessionId)
{
    if (sessionId == null)
    {
        if (IsEmptySessionSupported)
            sessionId = "";
        else
            throw new ArgumentNullException("sessionId");
    }

    string path = Path.Combine(HostingEnvironment.WebRootPath, "UploadedImageFiles", sessionId);
    if (!Directory.Exists(path))
        Directory.CreateDirectory(path);

    return new StreamDataStorageOnDisk(path);
}

Please also read how to create custom data storage for image files here: https://www.vintasoft.com/docs/vsimagin ... abase.html

And also can you advise to clear cache data programmatically after save/burn annotations. You can get image cache manager of web image viewer using the WebImageViewerJS.get_ImageCacheManager function.

The WebImageCacheManagerJS class allows to manage cache of web images.
