This module allows you to create file entities from URIs found within your source data. It handles the process of copying files, generating file entities, and detecting duplicates automatically.
This module is designed to assist with migration of files, where references to files are scattered throughout source data rather than contained in a list.
The basic premise is to facilitate turning a URI such as report.pdf or https://www.example.com/puppy.jpg into a file entity using two simple functions. The mechanics of copying files, creating file entities and duplicate detection all happens behind the scenes.
