for nginx).
Usage (HTTP)
The server responds on the following URLs:
URL | Method | Description |
---|---|---|
/get/{ID} |
GET |
Download item content |
/p/{ID} |
GET |
Preview item content (HTML) |
/p/{ID}-{ID}-... |
GET |
Preview multiple item content (HTML) |
/info/{ID} |
GET |
Get item content metadata (JSON) |
/thumb/{Type}/{ID} |
GET |
Get item thumbnail image (JPEG). "Type" should match [sbtmlh] . |
/about |
GET |
Get server metadata (JSON) |
Usage (Embedding for web)
Your webpage should load the SDK from the contented server, then call the contented.init
function to display the upload widget over the top of an existing DOM element:
<script type="text/javascript" src="SERVER_ADDR/sdk.js"></script>
contented.init("#target");
You can optionally supply additional ordered parameters to contented.init
:
- A callback, that will be passed an array of file IDs of any uploaded items
- A callback, that will be called if the SDK widget is closed
