We have binaries placed under the following folder structure,
$(Publication)/Building Blocks/Content/DD4T Content/Multimedia/Images/xyz.jpg
When I use the following image file in the page, the URL gets created as “BuildingBlocks/content/DD4TContent/Multimedia/Images/xyz.jpg”, we actually need that to create as “/Images/xyz.jpg”.
In Binary Publisher class I have added the following code
protected virtual void PublishItem(Item item, TcmUri itemUri)
{
Stream stream = null;
if (item.Properties.ContainsKey("TemplateURI"))
{
TcmUri tcmUri = new TcmUri(item.Properties["TemplateURI"]);
}
try
{
string url;
string publicationWebdavUrl = publication.WebDavUrl;
Component mmComp = (Component)engine.GetObject(item.Properties[Item.ItemPropertyTcmUri]);
//string text = mmComp.BinaryContent.Filename;
//var extension = Path.GetExtension(text);
Folder rootFolder = session.GetObject(publicationWebdavUrl + "/Building Blocks/System/Site Layout/Files") as Folder;
StructureGroup parentSG = session.GetObject(publicationWebdavUrl + "/Root/Files") as StructureGroup;
// <<Modified for IHS
// >>Modified for IHS
if (mmComp.ComponentType == ComponentType.Multimedia)
{
log.Info("Component Type : " + mmComp.ComponentType.ToString());
parentSG = GetParentSG(mmComp, rootFolder, parentSG);
targetStructureGroupUri = parentSG.Id;
if (targetStructureGroupUri == null)
{
this.log.Error("no structure group defined, publishing binary with default settings");
Component component = (Component)this.engine.GetObject(item.Properties["TCMURI"]);
this.log.Error(string.Format("publishing mm component {0} without variant id", component.Id));
Binary binary = engine.PublishingContext.RenderedItem.AddBinary(component);
url = binary.Url;
this.log.Error(string.Format("binary is published to url {0}", url));
}
else
{
Component component = (Component)this.engine.GetObject(item.Properties["TCMURI"]);
string text = ConstructFileName(component, this.currentTemplate.Id);
var group = this.engine.GetObject(targetStructureGroupUri);
StructureGroup structureGroup = (StructureGroup)this.engine.GetObject(targetStructureGroupUri);
this.log.Error(string.Format("publishing Directory : {0} /n Publish Location Path : {1} /n Publish Location Url : {2} and Publish Path : {3}", new object[]
{
structureGroup.Directory,
structureGroup.PublishLocationPath,
structureGroup.PublishLocationUrl,
structureGroup.PublishPath
}));
stream = item.GetAsStream();
if (stream == null)
{
this.log.Error(string.Format("Cannot get item '{0}' as stream", itemUri.ToString()));
}
this.log.Error(string.Format("publishing mm component {0} to structure group {1} with variant id {2} and filename {3}", new object[]
{
component.Id,
targetStructureGroupUri.ToString(),
this.currentTemplate.Id,
text
}));
Binary binary2 = this.engine.PublishingContext.RenderedItem.AddBinary(item.GetAsStream(), text, structureGroup, this.currentTemplate.Id, component, component.BinaryContent.MultimediaType.MimeType);
url = binary2.Url;
this.log.Error(string.Format("binary is published to url {0}", url));
}
this.log.Error("binary published, published path = " + url);
item.Properties[Item.ItemPropertyPublishedPath] = url;
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
log.Info("Exception Thrown From Here.");
throw new NullReferenceException(ex.Message);
}
finally
{
if (stream != null)
{
stream.Close();
}
}
}
What needs to be changed in this code to create folder structure as /Images/xyz.jpg. Thanks in advance.
Is there a way to edit the read only property of StructureGroup, which carries the publishingurl. I know i sound crazy, i even checked the Tridion.ContentManager.dll, it is taking from the currentstate. Since it dint work i came to a conclusion that, we need to place the binaries in the proper folder structure in Tridion itself. Does this conclusion sounds correct or please help me out.
