UploadList

Background and rationale

See DropBox.py

Description

A companion macro for DropBox action, which inserts a list of uploaded (attached) files in the DropBox format.

Usage

<<UploadList(["pagename"][, [mimetype=]"mimetype"][, [owners=]"Self"|"Other"|"All"][, [sort=]"Date"|"Owner"|"Size"|"Type"])>>

All arguments are optional. Argument labels (mime_type=, owners= and sort=) are optional. If pagename is given, it must be the first argument. The arguments mime type, owners and sort can be included in any order provided the label is given. Otherwise, the arguments must be in order with commas as placeholders for arguments not provided.

"pagename": name of any existing page given as a quoted string. The default is the current page.

mimetype="mimetype": set to restrict the list for certain files types only, e.g. "text/plain", "application/pdf" or "image/png". The default for is "*", i.e. all mimetypes. If an unrecognised or misspelt argument is given, no match files will be found.

owners="owners": set to restrict the list to users who initially uploaded the files. "Self" for the current users, "Other" for all other users, and "All" for all users (the default if argument not set). If an unrecognised or misspelt argument is given, the marco falls back to the default and now warning is given.

sort="sort": set to sort the list other than the default file name sort. "Date" for sort by file creation data and time, "Owner" for sort by user who originally uploaded the file, "Size" for sort by file size in kB, and "Type" for sort by file type.

Option values are not case sensitive.

Both owners and sort options can be set via the URL query string, e.g. example_wiki.net?self=other&sort=size. This overrides the defaults, but does not override values specifically set in a macro call.
