Limit upload size when creating a document

Hi All,

I'm trying to limit the upload size to 1GB in Nuxeo. Can someone of you explain how can I do that from Studio. It would be perfect also to be able to show a message when the file is bigger than 1GB saying that the file is not accepted because is bigger than 1GB.

I have no experience at all with Nuxeo Studio so please be nice 🙂 and explicitly as much as possible.

Thank you

Hi!

So as far as I know and from reading other similar posts, there isn't an inherit means of limiting uploaded files. However this might be possible to achieve via automation chain.

First create an automation chain in studio
Fetch the input document
Set a variable to get the value from property "file:content" (assuming you are using this field to upload the binary)
Use RunScript operator to use javascript, to take Blob from the variable, and checking its size with Blob.length (will return length in bytes)
Have it where if the length is more than a certain value, set the property "file:content" to be null.
Set a UI alert operator to notify user the file is too big.
Make sure to create an event handler (before document modification) and assign your automation chain to it

This is a very broad solution I know, but I've yet to do this myself. This is just a general idea of what I might do in this situation, so feel free to take this with a grain of salt.
