Add media URL root to Configuration File #24

Open jdeck88 opened 7 years ago

jdeck88 commented 7 years ago

In the FIMS configuration file, place a reference to a media root and media type that is a repeating element that enables substitution for essential metadata. For example:

http://foo.com/{expedition_code}/{entity_identifier} thumbnail_image|raw_image|1000px_image|audio|video tif|jpg|wav|mpg etc.... The {entity_identifier} corresponds to the identifier for a particular identity Optionally insert an {expedition_code} into the URL code to specify the expedition for the referenced entity. Of course, this method assumes ALL elements have corresponding specified media so the application would need to check presence before displaying any media....
