[RFC] Drop custom uploading & use something "better"

[stloyd]

Hello guys & gals!

After holidays, I started to look at my not finished PRs, and I found that #1284, is good start, but not good way to fix the problem of uploading code.

I done some research, and found that VichUploaderBundle covers totally our needs, and does even more for us as it supports:

• both ORM & ODM,
• add some useful helpers for templating stuff,
• supports few filesystem libs: Symfony Filesystem, Gaufrette, Flysystem
• and is well tested + documented!

Any feedback is welcome as usually =)

How it looks with the plan to use some of the js upload scripts? Drag and drop etc.

[stloyd]

@pjedrzejewski I don't think anything is blocking each other, I guess that with this change the javascript based upload (#492) could be even easier to handle, mainly cause this is about internal handling, and js is about frontend handling.

[kayue]

Will we support multiple image per product?

[stloyd]

@kayue I would say it's probably possible already, but maybe not an easy task. But it's for sure possible to have O2M relation with that bundle.

[pjedrzejewski]

We already have o2m relation on variants and images.

I have a quick to VichUploaderBundle, it seems interesting!

good bundle, but it represent just a server layer for the file uploads, but we still have a case with frontend version of file uploader is what about ask @pjedrzejewski and @kayue. This bundle doesn't cover it, so we should think about to find/create a frontend part of uploader with multiple uploads, drug-n-drop, ordering, etc. as well handle relation between server side layer VichUploaderBundle and frontend js library.

what about 1up-lab/OneupUploaderBundle ?

Hi guys!
Just to know. Is there any movement on this matter?

I think this feature might be a good addition to the Sylius platform. Right now it's a pain to add multiple images, especially if you want to sort them afterward.
