Add Get URL ProtoFlux Nodes #2487

Open lxw404 opened 3 months ago

lxw404 commented 3 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently as far as I am aware, there is no way of getting a URL given any static asset reference.

Describe the solution you'd like

There should be additional ProtoFlux nodes to take an asset and give the stored URL.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The current best alternative is to extract the URL from the string representation of the asset itself, but I'm not sure if this is a reliable solution.

Additional Context

One use case for this is to transfer the URL from an asset that a user provides to a tool, to one that the tool controls so that it can perform operations on a copy without affecting the original asset (such as image manipulation proxy calls etc.).

I don't think this would be something that would be added this is better suited for component access #57

lxw404 commented 3 months ago

This has really no dependence on component access. You can right now get an asset from an asset frame, however the properties are limited to those provided by current asset metadata components. There are also asset protoflux nodes which allow you to get a limited set of properties as well, except for URLs. This is just one missing property that isn't provided.
