I'm looking for a web based, embeddable file manager. I haven't found anything suitable through Google or the Stack Overflow archives. Does anyone know of a file manager that meets the following criteria?
The file manager must…
- …be embeddable (e.g. Flash or a Java applet)
- …run from my server (no storing uploads in a remote location)
- …be licensed for business use (fees are okay)
- …let me disable uploads. Users shouldn't be able to upload files, only download them
- …allow me to tag files and/or place them in folders
- …let me disable authentication or handle it from the backend. My app already has a login system and I don't want to make users log in twice
- …allow users to select and download multiple files
- …have an attractive interface
The file manager should…
- …have an external config file
- …display thumbnail previews for files
- …be skinnable
- …be actively developed or at least actively maintained
Thanks for your help. I need a sophisticated file manager and I'd like to avoid writing it from scratch.
