JavaScript
const CoreFiles = require('periodicjs.core.files');//mounted inside of periodic on periodic.core.files
const periodic = require('periodicjs');
const fs = require('fs');
const encryption_key = fs.readFileSync('/path/to/encrytion/key').toString() ||'encryption_password';
const createFileMiddleware = periodic.core.files.uploadMiddlewareHandler({
periodic,
});
const createEncryptedFileMiddleware = periodic.core.files.uploadMiddlewareHandler({
periodic,
encrypted_client_side: true,
encryption_key,
});
const removeFileMiddleware = periodic.core.files.removeMiddlewareHandler({
periodic,
});
const decrypteFileMiddleware = periodic.core.files.decryptAssetMiddlewareHandler({
periodic,
encryption_key,
}));
const testFileRouter = periodic.express.Router();
testFileRouter.post('/standard_assets',createFileMiddleware);
testFileRouter.post('/standard_assets/encrypted_files',createEncryptedFileMiddleware);
testFileRouter.get('/standard_assets/decrypt_asset/:id/:filename', decrypteFileMiddleware);
testFileRouter.delete('/standard_assets/:id',removeFileMiddleware);
testFileRouter.get('/standard_assets/upload_new_file',(req,res)=>{
res.send(`<html>
