Asset storage

This non-visual widget provides a mechanism for interacting with asset storage by using the Asset storage API. You can use this widget to populate image galleries, galleries of designs, and font lists.

General info

• type: asset-storage-ajax

Params

• assetType - one of "designs" | "images" | "privatedesigns" | "privateimages" | "fonts".
• folder - a string corresponding to the root folder in storage.
• folderFilter - Function - a function ("{{#function <expression>}}") that filters folders received from asset storage.
• entriesFilter - Function - a function ("{{#function <expression>}}") that filters entities received from asset storage.
• previewOptions - an object describing the required preview images. If asset storage does not contain previews with such options, they will be generated.

Properties

The Asset storage widget returns the following properties :

• apiResponse - a "raw" response from asset storage after applying folderFilter and entriesFilter if any.
• response - a server response in the format of gallery items. This object contains an array of elements {name: string, previewUrl: string, path: string}.

Example

The following example illustrates how you can request designs from asset storage and display them in a gallery widget.
