Upload Primefaces Directory

Question

I am uploading with Primefaces where the upload is in the Project Resources folder, but I want to use another directory for file storage, preferably in the root directory where Tomcat is.

Any suggestions on how to get this path?

Currently I am using so: FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRealPath("/") + "resources/files/";

Answer 1

Edit the file web.xml and includes or changes the entry:

<init-param>
    <param-name>uploadDirectory</param-name>
    <param-value>/path/to/uploads</param-value>
</init-param>

Answer 2

I’m using it this way: XHTML: <p:graphicImage value="#{emitenteBean.myImage}"

BEAN:

private StreamedContent myImage;

try {
FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream("/Users/user/files/minhaImg.jpg");
myImage = new DefaultStreamedContent(fileInputStream, "image/jpeg");

    } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
        System.out.println("ERRO AO CONVERTER IMG.");
    }
