DamUploadFieldDefinition makes sense only in the context of the Magnolia Assets subapp. Do not use it generically in any other context.

DamUploadFieldDefinition renders a field used by the Magnolia Assets subapp to upload assets to the DAM workspace. It extends UploadFieldDefinition as follows:

  • The uploaded file is mapped to a media type based on its MIME type.
  • Default field labels are overridden by media-type labels such as Upload new image.
  • There are actions for editing images in the media editor and for previewing images.
  • There is a thumbnail preview.

This DAM upload field definition is part of the Magnolia 6 UI framework. The fully qualified class name is info.magnolia.dam.app.field.DamUploadFieldDefinition.

If you work with the Magnolia 5 UI framework, see DAM upload field for Magnolia 5 UI instead.

Use info.magnolia.dam.app.field.factory.DamUploadFieldFactory for any custom implementation of the field. If no factory class is configured, the default field will be rendered.

Common simple field properties

Type of the field definition item. The value must be a fully qualified class name and a subtype of info.magnolia.ui.field.FieldDefinition. See Field types for possible values.

$type

You can use this as a shortcut for class if the definition class is annotated with info.magnolia.ui.field.FieldType. The proper value is defined by the annotation.

Model type of the field. Use the fully qualified class name. See PropertyType for possible values.

A default type is typically hard-coded in each definition class. You only need to add this property if you want to override the default implementation (for example, with java.lang.Long).
