Nucleus Podcast Uploads Via Applet

April 28th, 2009 | Add a Comment

If you need to provide a way for the technically challenged to easily upload media such as a podcast, one solution is to provide an ftp java applet for transferring the files so that you do not have to provide ftp access to the account. There are filesize upload limits on many servers and podcasts can be quite large. In our case we were using Nucleus for this CMS. This is an older article dug up from our previous archives that we thought worth saving.

After hours of searching for a suitable java applet, I found an ideal in JClientUpload which is dynamic and well supported as of this writing, includes drag and drop file support, ideal for easy use and affordable commercial licensing.
Always have backups before making modifications!

Install the JClient on your server and test to make sure it works before proceeding with the Nucleus modifications. Support for the ftp applet installation is at www.javazoom.net. Once you have JClient working properly, you can proceed to modify Nucleus. Note that if you are only installing this client and not integrating it with Nucleus logins, you should secure the applet appropriately. A basic installation will be insecure.

Modifying Nucleus

This has only been tested with Nucleus version 3.31! If you have a lesser version, upgrade or adapt the hacks to suit your install. It may or may not work with higher versions.

Copy your working JClient to the directory where you’d like it to load from. Later we will create a new applet_ftp.js file to pass the correct nucleus media directory information.

It is also recommended to take additional steps to secure the Nucleus media directory. See Nucleus forum discussion.

Adding the Custom Edit Button

This uses the Nucleus FAQ as a guide, don’t forget to back up your files before you begin modifying them. Keep in mind that Nucleus upgrades will overwrite these hacks so you may want to keep a list of changes so that you can redo the modifications after an upgrade.

Edit file: /nucleus/javascript/edit.js. Create the new button popup window function.

function addFtpFile() {
	var ftppopup = window.open(nucleusFtpPopUrl + '.ftpmedia.php', 'name', 
	'status=yes,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=500,height=450,top=0,left=0');
 
	return;
 
function setFtpPopupURL(url) {
	nucleusFtpPopupURL = url;
}
}

Add the auto insert podcast tag function to work if NP_Podcast is installed. (This is available from the Nucleus Plugins) You can still include this function if NP_Podcast is not installed. It will only be used if the plugin is loaded.

Find:

function includeOtherMedia(collection, filename) {
	if (isCaretEmpty()) {
		text = prompt("Text to display ?","");
	} else {
		text = getCaretText();
	}
 
	// add collection name when not private collection (or editing a message that's not your)
	var fullName;
	if (isNaN(collection) || (nucleusAuthorId != collection)) {
		fullName = collection + '/' + filename;
	} else {
		fullName = filename;
	}
 
	var replaceBy = '<%media(' +  fullName + '|' + text +')%>';
 
	insertAtCaret(replaceBy);
	updAllPreviews();
}

And add after it:

function includePodcast(collection, filename) {
	if (isCaretEmpty()) {
		text = prompt("Name of Content ?","");
	} else {
		text = getCaretText();
	}
 
	// add collection name when not private collection (or editing a message that's not your)
	var fullName;
	if (isNaN(collection) || (nucleusAuthorId != collection)) {
		fullName = collection + '/' + filename;
	} else {
		fullName = filename;
	}
 
	var replaceBy = '<%Podcast(' +  fullName + '|' + text +')%>';
 
	insertAtCaret(replaceBy);
	updAllPreviews();
}

Edit file: /nucleus/libs/PAGEFACTORY.PHP. Add buttons to the editor menus for both javascript blocks.

Find twice:

					$this->_jsbutton('right',"rightThis()",_ADD_RIGHT_TT);

Add after:

					$this->_jsbutton('file',"addFtpFile()",_ADD_FTP_TT);

Add your 16×16 ftp button image to /nucleus/images/, named button-file.gif.

Adding a popup media/applet page

* Create a new media file /nucleus/ftpmedia.php, which is based on media.php. This will work with the ftp applet instead of the standard Nucleus media upload script.

ftpmedia.php

At this point, if all the edited files are uploaded, you should have a new button in the Editor and clicking it should load a new media upload window. **But we are not finished yet!**

* Edit language files /nucleus/language/english.php, and english-utf8.php, you can adjust the podcast text as you wish.

Find in each:

define('_ADD_ALIGNCENTER_TT',		'Align Center');

Add after (edit to suit):

define('_ADD_FTP_TT',		'FTP Upload - Podcast');

And also find in each:

define('_MEDIA_COLLECTION_LABEL',	'Current collection: ');

Add after:

define('_FINISH_BUTTON', 'Finished..');

Uploading to the correct Media directory

In the ftpmedia.php applet upload page, instead of calling applet_ftp.js, we’re calling a new php file, applet_ftp.js.php to generate our javascript dynamically, and passing the applet the parameter information about the Nucleus user so that it uploads the file to the user’s media directory, else it won’t appear in the user’s media list.

<!-- jClientUpload Applet : Begin copy/paste -->
<script src="path/to/applet_ftp.js.php?memberid=<?php echo $currentCollection; ?>"></script>
<!-- jClientUpload Applet : End copy/paste -->

* Create a copy of applet_ftp.js and name it applet_ftp.js.php.
* Add at the top:

 <?php
 
// get the $memberid
	$memberid = $_GET['memberid']; ?>

* Add this to both parameter blocks to use this memberid.

  document.write('param5="account" ');
  document.write('value5="/public_html/path-to-nucelus/media/<? echo $memberid; ?>/" ');
  document.writeln('<PARAM NAME="param5" VALUE="account"> ');
  document.writeln('<PARAM NAME="value5" VALUE="/public_html/path-to-nucelus/media/<? echo $memberid; ?>/"> ');

* You’ll also need add the relative path to where you installed the applet to be sure the ftpmedia page can find it. Do this for each file called in the line below and in both sets of parameters.

ARCHIVE="path/to/lib/jclientupload.jar,

Sample applet_ftp.js.php:

Be sure to change the paths and login details to your own server needs and upload your changed files. You may also want to change occurrences of

<? .. ?>

to

<?php .. ?>

This code is years old.

Now when you add a new item, your new upload button popup should load ftpmedia.php, and when you Select Upload File, it will load the applet page. Selecting the mp3 in the list should insert the correct media or podcast tags if NP_Podcast is installed. If not, make sure that all your paths and structure are correct for your installation.

Finally, be sure to secure your ftp applet and javascript file access.
