[Midas] getting assetstore directory location

[Zach Mullen]

Hi Mona,

The way to get the default assetstore path is through the Assetstore model.
 Add the 'Assetstore' model to the models list in your controller class,
and then you can call:

$assetstorePath = $this->Assetstore->getDefault()->getPath();

If what you are trying to do is find the absolute path of a bitstream, it
is recommended to instead use $bitstreamDao->getFullPath().

Thanks,

Zach
