To make life easier when multiple instances are uploading temporary
files to Koha, this patch adds the database name to the upload subfolder
in your /tmp folder.
Note: Although multiple instances could share the same subfolder for
temporary storage (hashvalue is based on a timestamp too), it will be
better to separate them for efficient housekeeping (removing older or
partial files with a cronjob etc.)
Since multiple instances come with separate permissions, keeping them in
separate folders will be much simpler.
Permanent storage is not affected by this patch. The location of permanent
storage is ruled by the upload_path in each config file. Sharing that
space is not recommended too.
Although it may not be strictly necessary yet to remove files from the old
temp storage folder (before the 3.22 release), the accompanying db rev
performs that housekeeping task.
Test plan:
[1] Do not yet apply this patch. Upload a temporary file (use the
tools/upload.pl script without selecting a category).
[2] Check /tmp/koha_upload.
[3] Apply this patch. Run the db rev with web installer.
[4] Upload another temporary file.
[5] Check /tmp for folder [your_database]_upload.
[6] Check that /tmp/koha_upload is gone and the associated records too.
[7] Run the adjusted t/db../Upload.t
Followed test plan. Could not do steps before applying patch [1]-[2]
(I suppose a local permission problem).
After applying patch and updating db file appears in /tmp/[database]
as expected.
