Questions:

  • Images only?
  • Where will we store them?
  • What format?
  • size limits?
  • CDN?

v1 is images only

  • Image - JPG, PNG, GIF, SVG should be sufficient. Animated GIFs will be inevitable. Limit size accordingly.
  • Audio - Unlikely before Q4. Could be very interesting to play with on our platform, adding loops to pages, effects to nav transitions.
  • Video - Unlikely before Q4. I wonder if we'd play with embeds before introducing video support.

Stating the obvious: We will want to add some metrics to track abuse.

This is top priority for the beta SOW and we need some sort of implementation ready for testing before the end of this sprint. @cadecairos how would you like us to kick this off? Happy to jump on a call any time this week.

@thisandagain I'd like to develop a strategy for this ASAP so I get get started on an implementation. Got time today?

This looks handy https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/s3-upload-node

Yeah, that looks better than the pile of node modules I concocted writing a PR for webmaker app. But if they're a helpful reference at all: https://github.com/jbuck/s3-post-policy

To get around this we have been storing images in the element table itself. It is working well enough for now, but I'd like to sync up again on this once login is landed.

With login being delayed until at least mid-next week, what are we doing here?

cadecairos avatar May 27 '15 20:05 cadecairos

@cadecairos Good question. Let's talk about this tomorrow at stand-up.
