Create directory for current user via code

Hi,

Within a module I am writing I need to, within an EventSubscriber, create an access restricted directory for the current user where my module will place a file for that user.

What function do I need to call for this, and what variables do I need to add?

I think I need to add:

use Drupal\private_files_download_permission\Form\DirectoryForm;
use Drupal\user\Entity\User;

and then call $pfdp_directory->save(), but I need the $user->id() to be the directory name, with only the same user having access permission.

Help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Glenn

Hi,

I admit I have no experience on this (I never tried to create directories from code), but I *think* You could succeed by running $pdf_directory->save() where $pdf_directory should be an instance of DirectoryEntity (https://git.drupalcode.org/project/private_files_download_permission/-/b...); in other words, try setting the public $id, $path etc. then run ->save().

Hope it helps a little,

MZ
