Folders in UploadThing
Hi Guys
I've seen that folders are on the roadmap under "this year". Any idea what that means? I would really like to implement uploadthing as storage provider in my multi tenant payload cms app but to make this work I would need a way to see how much storage every tenant uses. What would be the way to work around before folders are available?

Yeah that is a feature really missing. I wish it was there
i think
folders would mean that we can point files to a folder and store the folder.key in our db to be used later
upon usage we can list all the files inside the folder instead of storing all the files.keys. CRUD operations basically
i could be wrong about that
as for a solution, uploadthing expects you to store the image key or url in your own db to be referred later for extraction
you'll have to store the total storage usage and file keys / data yourself
