Feature #21565

Generating multiple directories for images in GB/ and pics/
0%
Description
When TYPO3 needs to generate many thousands of images (>50.000) then most file systems will slow down because TYPO3 will put all generated images into one directory.
- All files are store stored under the GB and pics directory, and sub-directories are created based on there
filename's data.
- There are 4 additional settings added to config_default.php to set the levels and filename's length for gifbuilder and imagemagick.
- The functions fileName and createTempSubDir are backwards compatible and behave the same.
However the function fileName now as an option to not add a tempDir to a generated filename. This was done to prevent funky str_replaces for path creations in the gifBuild function
The function createTempSubDir now uses mkdir_deep from t3lib_div to create 'deep' (recursive) sub directories
I believe that the patch might not be CGL compatible, I hope to hear your comments on that. If you have any other suggestions/comments/questions. Please let me know.
Ries
Example:
When the number of levels to create is set to 3, and the size of the filename is set to 16.
Then if the generate image name is: fa361bcd532ea5f4.jpg
The following directory will get create: typo3temp/f/a/3/fa361bcd532ea5f4.jpg

gifbuilder.patch was a faulty upload (how can I delete it??, or how can I upload multiple files at the same time?)
12609.patch contains the file patch.

Your patch didn't work completly. You missed to replace the mkdir by the mkdir_deep of t3lib_div
I fixed this. Also there was a typo for config default. For the "im_" properties you wrote is about the "GB/" directory, and for the "gb_" properties you wrote about the "pics/" directory.

Hi,
as this issue is very old. Is this feature missing in newer versions of TYPO3 CMS (6.1)?
If yes, can you provide a newer patch against master by using Gerrit? http://wiki.typo3.org/CWT

I rethought this issue and it isn't solved and would be a good enhancement.

sorry, Redmine and keyboard navigation aren't the best friends.
We will keep this issue open of course :)

Thank you for your report.
Even though it has been some time, would you consider submitting a new patch to our Gerrit review server?
Someone could do this for you, but I am thinking you might like the opportunity to contribute to TYPO3 yourself.
You can find a description of the TYPO3 contribution workflow here: https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/ContributionWorkflowGuide/
Hint: If you get stuck anywhere, ask on Slack in the #typo3-cms-coredev channel. You can register in the TYPO3 slack workspace here: https://forger.typo3.com/slack
Also, if your issue is no longer reproducable, please let us know in the slack channel, so that this issue can be closed.
Thank you in advance!

Hey,
we've improved in TYPO3 v9 in this area:
- uploads/pics/ is no longer in use - uploads/ is completely removed actually if not needed
- FAL processed files does "nested subfolders" for generated images
- for menus ("GB/") this is not the case, however we decided to remove GMENU in TYPO3 v10.0, as this concept is not "recommended" anymore.
So, we've improved, we could do the "GB/" folder (which is now typo3temp/assets/menu/) but could you give me a use-case (TypoScript setup) where this folder is populated now with more than e.g. 100 files?
