I drafted a plan on what is needed for this file version management program. Below are some features planned:
- When a user uploads a file for the first time, the system should upload the file in the specified folder and insert the file details like file name, size, type in the database table.
- When the user uploads a file for the second time (the filename has to be the same), the system will compare the size, date and time of existing file and file being uploaded, and automatically assign a new version for the uploaded file if there is a difference. If there is no difference, then the existing file will be retained and a message will be displayed for the user.
- A check box allows the user to replace the existing file. Clicking this option will replace the existing file. Note that only the latest version of the file can be replaced in this case, and not an older one.
- The database will maintain file list and version details. User should be able to view all the versions of a file and download the required version.
- While displaying the file list, the program displays all the versions of file under one name. For example, if the file name is xyz.doc and its other versions are xyz_VERSION1.doc, xyz_VERSION2.doc, xyz_VERSION3.doc, xyz_VERSION4.doc, xyz_VERSION5.doc and so on. The program will display filename as xyz.doc for all the versions.
- The program allows user to delete the file. Clicking on delete will ask for confirmation before proceeding.
The file manager program is designed to upload and manage files. The files are stored in a predefined folder. There are two files: file_upload_manager.php and file_display_manager.php, which performs the file operations. The former handles the file uploading and the later displays the file in the folder and also lets the user to delete the file. The source code is tested on Windows systems. Linux users, please change the folder path accordingly.
Database Design
Database name: upload
CREATE TABLE file_manager (
file_id mediumint(9) NOT NULL auto_increment,
file_name varchar(50) default NULL,
file_type varchar(20) NOT NULL default '',
file_size varchar(20) NOT NULL default '',
file_modified varchar(20) NOT NULL default '',
file_parent_id mediumint(9) default NULL,
file_image_name varchar(50) default NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (file_id),
KEY file_name (file_name),
KEY file_image_name (file_image_name)
) TYPE=MyISAM;
