FilePond PHP Server API

A PHP server to handle FilePond file uploads and Doka image transforms.

⚠️ If you're using a version of the PHP API released before 2019-09-19, please update to the latest version to fix a potential security vulnerability

Instructions

Comment this line in both the index.php and submit.php files to prevent posting to the server from other domains.

header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');

Targets

The tmp and upload file paths can be configured in the config.php file.

// where to get files from, can also be an array of fields
const ENTRY_FIELD = 'filepond'; 

// where to write files to
const TRANSFER_DIR = 'tmp';
const UPLOAD_DIR = 'uploads';
const VARIANTS_DIR = 'variants';

// name to use for the file metadata object
const METADATA_FILENAME = '.metadata';

Image Transforms

To do image transforms on the server instead of the client we can uncomment the require_once('config_doka.php') line.

Transform instructions found in the .metadata file are now automatically applied to the first file in the upload list (when it's transfered from the transfer dir to the upload dir).

Example

See FilePond PHP Boiler Plate for an example implementation.
