What?

Create a webform File Upload Element for Frictionless Data Packages

Why?

To enable the upload of complex (but not necessarily compound, hierarchically-structured) digital objects with multiple files of various file/media types as Frictionless Data Packages.

Example Use Cases

• Thesis submission that consists of a .pdf, a .csv, and a Tableau(.twbx) workbook file
• Project files for an educational video game that consist of multiple .pdf, .psd, .jpg, .mov, .html, and a .zip (containing even more files of various types such as .mb, .mel, etc.)

Yes. This is needed.

Ok. So a few thoughts: 1.- We want that Frictionless data packages can also be generated via a Drush API ingest. So actually the special field will do the following: 1.- Simply upload the files but also "mark" them in the JSON (an ap: prefixed key of an flv: prefixed key need ) to be Packaged once the ADO is saved. 2.- We may need then a Post processor that does that. 3.- Once packaged, and if people want to edit the ADO (they will) people will be able still to remove/add files to the existing package (so they should never see the package, just the individual images).

All this requires logic, patience and testing. But so needed.
