About Media Bulk Upload
This is the Drupal 8 module to bulk upload files and create the media entities automatically for them. It uses DropzoneJS to quickly upload multiple files.
How to install:
- Download this module, and DropzoneJS.
- Make sure you follow the install instructions of DropzoneJS.
- Install media_bulk_upload the usual way.
You will now have the media bulk upload configuration at your disposal.
Just go to the /admin/config/media/media-bulk-config page and
configure a media bulk upload form. After creating the configuration you
can go to /media/bulk-upload and use your configured
form.
Maximum file size is currently determined based on the selected media type with the highest maximum upload size.
To configure the fields that are shown on the bulk upload form for the media, just configure the form mode chosen in your configuration for each media type. It has a fallback to the default form if the selected mode is not found in one of the media types. The fields are then shown based on the fact that they are shared between all the selected media types in the configured bulk upoad form.
Future plans:
- Test coverage.
- Max file size validation handling per media type on upload.
- Handling other types of upload validations (min/max resolution, min size,...).
