Asset Manager Configuration

Config Options

File System Based Asset Store

Configure the file system based asset store in custom.properties.

  • org.opencastproject.episode.rootdir The path where the file system based asset store of the default implementation stores the assets. This key is optional.
  • org.opencastproject.storage.dir This is Opencast’s general config key to configure the base path of everything storage related. If no storage directory is configured explicitely, the file system based asset store will use ${org.opencastproject.storage.dir}/archive as its base path.

Deployment

The following bundles have to be added to the system.properties

  • asset-manager-api
  • asset-manager-impl
  • asset-manager-storage-fs
  • asset-manager-util
  • asset-manager-workflowoperation

How can I use a different storage backend?

Replace the asset-manager-storage-fs bundle with another bundle that exports an implementation of the AssetStore interface.

How can I use a totally different AssetManager implementation?

Replace both asset-manager-impl and asset-manager-storage-fs bundles with a bundle that exports an implementation of the asset-manager-api.
