I consider that a basic feature for the plugin is to allow uploading tar/zip files. There are known side issues: a HTTP server is normally configured to disallow both large file uploads and to fail long requests with a timeout. I see two ways to solve this issue:
I've seen OJS being used to upload large files. Therefore, such upload component would be useful for any kind of application, especially if it can detect/adapt/retry with smaller chunks when errors/timeouts happen). I mean, it's something that could be moved to upstream... 🤔 AFAICR OJS has the Composer package |

Hi all,
we set the aim to develop the importer tool to require no technical background. The tool in the current state does not fullfill this aim since it is a command line tool only employable by admins.
While it is easy enough to put the code into a plugin to make it available in the OJS backend, this approach is limited since we also require to upload a significant number of files which will be limited (on size and/or numbers) on the server side. One can easly reach gigabytes of publication files to be uploaded for a single import process.
What options do we have to address this issue? I would think into directions as e.g.
What is your opinion on that and how far is the support for those mechanics in OJS 3.4 already?
