Hi @maliming,

I have used below code for Azure configuration. I have tried by adding below code in Domain, Application & APIHost module.

Configure<AbpBlobStoringOptions>(options =>
{
    options.Containers.ConfigureDefault(c =>
    {
        c.UseAzure(container =>
        {
            container.ConnectionString = configuration["Azure:BlobConnectionString"];
            container.ContainerName = configuration["Azure:BlobContainerName"];
            container.CreateContainerIfNotExists = true;
        });
    })
    options.Containers.Configure<FileManagementContainer>(c =>
    {
        //c.UseDatabase();
        c.UseAzure(container =>
        {
            container.ConnectionString = configuration["Azure:BlobConnectionString"];
            container.ContainerName = configuration["Azure:BlobContainerName"];
            container.CreateContainerIfNotExists = true;
            // Add other configurations as needed
        });
    });
});

hi

You should add it to ConfigureServices method of APIHost project

Hi @maliming, I tried to creating a new clean project but getting some error in lepton theme, may be because of version. But you can try from your end.

I have followed below steps

Created a new project
Added File Management Module
Added "Volo.Abp.BlobStoring.Azure" package in Api.Host project
Added below code in ApiHostModule.cs file

private void ConfigureAzureBlob(IConfiguration configuration)
{
    Configure<AbpBlobStoringOptions>(options =>
    {
        options.Containers.ConfigureDefault(c =>
        {
            c.UseAzure(container =>
            {
                container.ConnectionString = configuration["Azure:BlobConnectionString"];
                container.ContainerName = configuration["Azure:BlobContainerName"];
                container.CreateContainerIfNotExists = true;
            });
        });

        options.Containers.Configure<FileManagementContainer>(c =>
        {
            c.UseAzure(container =>
            {
                container.ConnectionString = configuration["Azure:BlobConnectionString"];
                container.ContainerName = configuration["Azure:BlobContainerName"];
                container.CreateContainerIfNotExists = true;
                // Add other configurations as needed
            });
        });
    });
}

Call above method from ConfigureServices method.
Run the Api Project & Angular project
When I open the File Management UI page. I am expecting the folders & files should come from my Azure container. Also When I create a new folder it should create the folder in Azure blob container. But it is adding the entry in FmDirectoryDescriptors table in the database.

Please help me what I am doing wrong.

Thank you.

hi

When I open the File Management UI page. I am expecting the folders & files should come from my Azure container.

This is by design. Only file/blob will be stored on Azure. The file and folder info will be stored in the FM database.

oh okay, so you mean, If I upload a file inside that folder it will go to azure, right?

Yes. Azure is used store file. The FM module is used to store file/folder info.

Ok thanks for clarification. It is uploading file in the azure. Can you please help me, if I can have any way to manage the organize data in azure?

Also, If I want to upload a file from coding, do we have any accessible method of file management module to create folder in file management module? So I can have track of all the documents uploaded from code in file management module.

Thank you so much for your help.

hi

This is not the initial design of the FM module.

If I want to upload a file from coding, do we have any accessible method of file management module to create folder in file management module? So I can have track of all the documents uploaded from code in file management module.

You can inject the Domain or AppService services to upload and manage the file/folder.

Hi @maliming, Thank you for your reply. I got how to manage the files & folder programmatically.

Can you please help me how to override the getall api of file management module? Like I just want to display files & folder of specific folder instead of all folders by default.

Or is there any way so I can use the UI of file management module and use my api to get list of files & folders?

Thank you.

Thank you @maliming for your help. Can we use the file management component as a child component in other page?
