History of LibertyAttachments

TikiStorage is a mechanism for attaching files to any PackageCommon derived content (wiki, blogs).

The tiki_storage table is an abstraction to the actual file location. This permits one to use the local file system (tiki_files) or database binary objects (tiki_blobs) or even tables from other 3rd party application ( like a g_id from [http://gallery.sourceforge.net|gallery2] )

All functionality is in the PackageCommon package. There is a TikiStorage class that handles all storing and retrieving of data. Currently, only tiki_files is supported. Future support (blobs, gallery2, etc.) will depend on community support and developer interest.

Here is a diagram of how the Tables interface:
