File Sideload

File Sideload adds two media ingesters: sideload and sideload_dir.

sideload is used for ingesting files one at a time. It requires one property: ingest_filename, which is the name of a file within the configured sideload directory to ingest. In the REST API, using the sideload ingester would look like:

{
    "o:ingester": "sideload",
    "ingest_filename": "example.jpg"
}

sideload_dir is used for ingesting an entire folder at once. It requires one property: ingest_directory, which is the name of a directory to ingest. You can also set ingest_directory_recursively to true to recursively ingest all the contents of the chosen directory and its subdirectories. In the REST API, using the sideload_dir ingester would look like:

{
    "o:ingester": "sideload_dir",
    "ingest_directory": "example_dir",
    "ingest_directory_recursively": true
}
