    Media File stream

    API Questions

    Hi,

    Is it possible to get a file stream from a media item?

    The back-end user upload a PDF File to the media library, With a Media Picker, the same user selects this item to add it to a page.

    From the current page, I get the id of the media item. But now I need a stream so i can edit the file.

    Any idea how I can get this done?

    With kind regards,

    Jan van Helvoort.

    Hi, what version of Umbraco are you on? For 7+ you can use the Media service like so:

        var media = Services.MediaService.GetById(1072);

    var umbracoFilePath = media.GetValue<string>(Umbraco.Core.Constants.Conventions.Media.File);

    var path = Server.MapPath(umbracoFilePath);

    using (var fs = new FileStream(path, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
    {
    }
