SurvosMediaBundle provides a deterministic, URL‑centric media registry for Symfony applications.
It is intentionally not a media processor. Instead, it:
- Registers media references (URLs or local files)
- Assigns deterministic IDs derived from URLs
- Stores application‑local media metadata
- Syncs with a centralized media server (future step)
- Generates thumbnail URLs via imgproxy‑style patterns (future step)
This mirrors the relationship between babel‑bundle and lingua‑server:
- Applications own their media tables
- A central service owns the binaries and heavy processing
Every media item has a stable, deterministic ID derived from its URL.
use Survos\MediaBundle\Service\MediaRegistry;
$id = MediaRegistry::idFromUrl('https://example.com/image.jpg');The algorithm:
- Base64‑encodes the URL
- Converts it to URL‑safe base64
- Removes padding
This is the same philosophy used by imgproxy.
- No database lookups to resolve URLs
- IDs are reversible
- Same URL → same ID across apps
- Safe primary key for Meilisearch
The primary entry point is MediaRegistry.
foreach ($data->images as $imageUrl) {
$media = $mediaRegistry->ensureMedia($imageUrl);
}- Defaults to
Photo - No duplicate URLs
- Bulk‑safe (
flush: false) - No network calls
Local files are also supported:
$media = $mediaRegistry->ensureMedia($uploadedFile);Local files are assigned a temporary local:// URL until synced.
mediary POSTs a signed asset.analyzed webhook to /webhook/mediary when an image finishes
analysis. This bundle supplies the two pieces that belong to it — a request parser
(Survos\MediaBundle\Webhook\MediaWebhookRequestParser) and a consumer that calls
MediaUpdateApplier, the same write path media:sync uses. It contributes no route and no
controller; the endpoint is FrameworkBundle's own.
In the app:
# config/routes/webhook.yaml
webhook:
resource: '@FrameworkBundle/Resources/config/routing/webhook.php'
prefix: /webhook
# config/packages/webhook.yaml
framework:

routing:
mediary:
service: Survos\MediaBundle\Webhook\MediaWebhookRequestParser
secret: '%env(default::MEDIARY_WEBHOOK_SECRET)%'
# config/packages/messenger.yaml — REQUIRED, or the endpoint's 202 is a lie
framework:
messenger:
routing:
'Symfony\Component\RemoteEvent\Messenger\ConsumeRemoteEventMessage': media_callbackSet MEDIARY_WEBHOOK_SECRET to the same value mediary signs with, and point
MEDIA_CALLBACK_URL at https://your-app/webhook/mediary.
To react to updates, listen for MediaUpdatedEvent — mediary never learns your entity shape.
Full contract, including how to run several webhooks on separate queues: kit-bundle/docs/webhooks.md.
Replaced the unauthenticated
MediaCallbackControllerat/media/callback, where anyone who could reach the URL could rewrite a media row. See survos-sites/mediary#8.
When webhook callbacks are unavailable (for example, local dev tunnels are down), poll mediary directly via the bundle service.
use Survos\MediaBundle\Service\MediaBatchDispatcher;
$result = $mediaBatchDispatcher->dispatch('museum', [$url], [
'callback_url' => 'https://my-app.example/webhook/media',
]);
$assetId = $result->media[0]->mediaKey;
$probe = $mediaBatchDispatcher->probe($assetId);
if ($probe->isComplete()) {
// use $probe->meta / $probe->context / $probe->ocr / $probe->ai
}Available methods:
probe(string $assetId): MediaProbeResult→ callsGET /fetch/media/{id}probeMany(array $assetIds): array<MediaProbeResult>→ callsPOST /fetch/media/by-ids
Probe payload includes current workflow state (marking), variants/thumb URLs, metadata, and any OCR/AI context that has been written so far.
CLI helper:
bin/console media:probe 5c4e0c2d6f8a1b9e
bin/console media:probe "https://example.org/image.jpg"
bin/console media:probe --url "upload://sha256/abcd..."Apps run AI with survos/ai-workflow-bundle and store tracked metadata as
claims. Media publishing should send the image plus selected source/AI/human
claims to mediary, while mediary remains responsible for global media access and
canonical image URLs. See docs/publishing.md.
- Download media
- Resize images
- Cache thumbnails
- Perform OCR, tagging, or EXIF extraction
Those responsibilities belong to the media server and imgproxy.
This bundle is intentionally minimal and evolving.
Next steps include:
media:synccommand- Provider detection (YouTube, Flickr, etc.)
- Thumbnail URL generation helpers
