Goal: designing and implementing a simple website to display and
interact with a files/folders hierarchy. There is no need for
authentication or user management. Using a frontend framework like
bootstrap or foundation would be cool.
features:
* main/root page is the top level of the hierarchy
* at each level in the hierarchy and for each level in the hierarchy:
* we should see a list of files and folders
* breadcrumb trail
* upload button / form to upload a new file
* each element (file/folder) should have a name, type (folder has only one type, you can use extension or content-type for files) and creation date
* show file size
* when clicking a folder, navigate to this folder and see its content (different page)
* when clicking a file, download it
* sort list by name, type, date or size (for files)
* displays the complete folders hierarchy to allow quick switch between folders (each folder is a link to its content)
requirements:
- sql storage of your choice
- folders and files hierarchy have to be stored in sql, file content in filesystem
- rails application
- tests or specs
- like a filesystem, file and folder names should be unique within a given parent
- rake task to generate an important number of folders and files with a depth of 8
- performance: page should be fast to to display (especially when displaying the complete folders hierarchy generated by rake task)
Import
You can import a file struct by importer task, You can define you PATH by IMPORT_PATH env variable
```
IMPORT_PATH=/foo rake importer
```
