OroGridFSConfigBundle

OroGridFSConfigBundle provides configuration enhancements for Oro applications to enable usage of GridFS as the filesystem for the File Storage.

The bundle enables developers to set MongoDB GridFS parameters in the application configuration YAML files which automatically enables and configures GridFS filesystem as storage as Gaufrette adapter.

Install OroGridFSConfigBundle

To install OroGridFSConfigBundle:

  1. Make sure your php instance have MongoDB PHP Library installed.

  2. Install MongoDB in any preferred way.

  3. Require the package via composer.

    composer require oro/gridfs-config

Note

Enterprise Edition (EE) applications already have the package installed.

  1. Configure bundle.
  2. Clear cache.

Note

Please take into account that old data that was uploaded to the local storage will not be migrated to GridFS storage.

GridFS Gaufrette Adapter Configuration

The bundle supports two ways to configure Gaufrette adapters:

  1. The usual way that requires the configuration of KnpGaufretteBundle.
  2. A simplified way where you can reconfigure already configured adapters to GridFS with the config/parameters.yml file.

Adapters Configuration with KnpGaufretteBundle

To use the Oro GridFS Gaufrette adapter, use the oro_gridfs adapter type. To configure a new or reconfigure an existing adapter, add the KnpGaufretteBundle configuration in the Resources/config/oro/app.yml in any bundle or config/config.yml of your application:

knp_gaufrette:
    adapters:
        public: # the adapter name
            oro_gridfs:
                mongodb_gridfs_dsn: 'mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/media'

As you can see from the example, the configuration of oro_gridfs adapter has the mongodb_gridfs_dsn parameter with the configuration of MongoDB DSN string. The format of this string is the following: [protocol]://[username]:[password]@[host]:[port]/[database], where:

  • protocol is mongodb
  • username is username that has an access to the MongoDB database
  • password is the user’s password
  • host is the hostname or IP address of the MongoDB server
  • database is the MongoDB database name should be used as GridGS storage

Adapters Configuration with parameters.yml

To simplify the configuration of the already existing Gaufrette adapters or filesystems, the config/parameters.yml file of your application can be used.

To reconfigure an adapter, add the parameter with the name gaufrette_adapter.[adapter_name], where the adapter_name is the name of an existing adapter. The value of the parameter is the MongoDB DSN string described in the previous chapter started with gridfs:.

The following example shows the reconfiguration of the public adapter:

gaufrette_adapter.public: 'gridfs:mongodb://user:password@host:27017/media'

To get the list of existing Gaufrette adapters, use the following command:

bin/console debug:config knp_gaufrette adapters

To reconfigure a filesystem, add the parameter with the name gaufrette_filesystem.[filesystem_name], where the filesystem_name is the name of an existing filesystem. As for the adapter configuration the value of the parameter is the MongoDB DSN string.

The following example shows the reconfiguration of the attachments filesystem:

gaufrette_filesystem.attachments: 'gridfs:mongodb://user:password@host:27017/attachments'

To get the list of existing Gaufrette filesystems, use the following command:

bin/console debug:config knp_gaufrette filesystems

Configuration for Cluster MongoDB GridFS Setup

If you have installed MongoDB cluster, it can be used as the GridFS storage as well.

In this case, the dsn configuratoin string has the following format: [protocol]://[user]:[password]@[host1]:[port],[host2]:[port]/[database]

Example:

gaufrette_adapter.public: 'mongodb://user:password@host1:27017,host2:27017/media'
