==== Share files between nodes
|
||
|
|
||
|
Rudder 4.1 introduced a way to share files from one node to another.
|
||
|
It allows a node to send a file to its relay, which will make it available
|
||
|
for another target node, that has to to specifically download it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This file sharing method is secured by:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* The control of uploaded file signature by the server, to check it matches the source node's private key.
|
||
|
* The same mechanism as standard file copy in Rudder to download the shared file from the server.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It also includes a ttl mechanism that allows sharing a file for a limited amount of time.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To use this feature, two generic methods are available in the technique editor:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* <<sharedfile_from_node, sharedfile_from_node>>: To download a file shared from another node.
|
||
|
* <<sharedfile_to_node, sharedfile_to_node>>: To make a file available to another node.
|
||
|
|
||
|
See the documentation of these methods for details about the required parameters,
|
||
|
and especially <<sharedfile_to_node, sharedfile_to_node>> for a complete usage example.
