Integration with other modules

FileManagerModule has no required module dependencies for using the virtual file system. Integration with other modules is only relevant when you want to use the FileReference entity.

AcrossHibernateJpaModule and PropertiesModule

If both AcrossHibernateJpaModule and PropertiesModule are present, support for FileReference will be activated. This provides an entity which represents a file resource in entity relationships and can also be used to store additional file metadata.

See the section on linking to files for more information.

EntityModule and BootstrapUiModule

If FileReference is available and EntityModule and BootstrapUiModule are present, support for automatic uploading/downloading of file references through a generated UI will be available.

See the section on linking to files for more information.
