Media Bundle¶
The SonataMediaBundle
is a media library based on a dedicated provider
which handles different type
of media: files, videos or images.
Each type
is managed by a provider
service which is in charge of:
- retrieving media metadata
- generating media thumbnail
- tweaking the edit form
- rendering the media
Each media
can be linked to a context
. A context can be news
,
user
or any name you want. A context allows you to group a set of pictures
together. As requirements can be different for each context, a context
is defined by a set of formats
and a set of providers
.
As the infrastructure is not standard, the MediaBundle
abstracts the
filesystem
layer and the cdn
layer.
