The Commands

The current CKFinder throws several commands to the server side connectors. All commands expect XML formatted responses, with a few exceptions:

  • Init: this is the first command issued by CKFinder. It returns the general settings of the connector and all configured resource types.
  • GetFolders: gets the list of the children folders of a folder.
  • GetFiles: similar to the above command, gets the list of the children files of a folder.
  • CreateFolder: creates a child folder.
  • RenameFolder: renames a folder.
  • DeleteFolder: deletes a folder.
  • RenameFile: renames a file.
  • DeleteFile: deletes a file.
  • CopyFiles copies files.
  • MoveFiles moves files.
  • FileUpload (non XML): adds a file in a folder.
  • QuickUpload (non XML): adds a file in a folder.
  • DownloadFile (non XML): downloads a file from the server.
  • Thumbnail (non XML): downloads the thumbnail of an image file.

All security and ACL checks must be done before executing any of the above commands. For ACL related attributes, see “ACL – Access Control List” later in this documentation.
