Hi everyone It seems that I don't fully understand the wireTempPath() function and I need some help. I use wireTempPath() to create a new location in assets/cache/WireTempDir and than copy a pdf from the assets/files/page folder to the new folder. I want the file to be accessible only for a limited time, that's why I use wireTempPath. The file seems to be copied to the right location, but gets deleted right afterwards, according to As mentioned in the topic above, $wireTempDir->setRemove(false); prevents the file to be deleted. But I like the file to be automatically deleted after a few days. So, how can I do that? My code so far (everything works, but the automatic removal of the tempDir folder): //generate and show download link $folder = time(); // timestamp as temporary folder $maxAge = (int) $settings->options_downloadlink_valid_hours * 3600; //tempDir wants maxAge as seconds $options = array( 'maxAge' => $maxAge ); $wireTempDir = wireTempDir($folder, $options); $wireTempDir->setRemove(false); $src_file = $page->ebook_download->filename; // Create a new directory in ProcessWire's cache dir if(wire('files')->mkdir($wireTempDir, $recursive = true)) { if(wire('files')->copy($src_file, $wireTempDir)){ //get subdirs from tempDir: $pos = strpos($wireTempDir, "WireTempDir"); $subdir = substr($wireTempDir, $pos, 100); $out .= "<p><a href='" . wire('pages')->get('template=passthrough')->httpUrl . "?file=" . $subdir . $page->ebook_download->basename . "' target='_blank'>$page->title</a></p>"; } } I appreciate any ideas - thanks! Oliver

Hi, I wan't to send a generated PDF with in an email attachment. To sent the email, I have to generate and save the PDF file. I' don't need it afterwards, zo I want to remove the generated PDF after some time. In the documentation i found there's a tempDir() method, but I can't get it to work. I use the dompdf library to generate a PDF This is my current test code: $dompdf = new Dompdf(); $dompdf->loadHtml('hello world'); // (Optional) Setup the paper size and orientation $dompdf->setPaper('A4', 'landscape'); // Render the HTML as PDF $dompdf->render(); $wireTempDir = files()->tempDir('test'); $output = $dompdf->output('test.pdf'); file_put_contents($wireTempDir, $output);
