procedure to handle uploads with same name about uppy HOT 4 CLOSED

an idea would be to make it easy to attached things to filename like

• upload timestamp 20160314160903 (begin of upload)
• and /or advanced: user name (if logged in)

from uppy.

another idea would be to make a new folder for each uploader
with a name containing an individual combination

• IP and
• time at beginning of upload

and save files with original file names in it.

maybe the possibility to create "a new folder for each uploader" (optional)
could have in general some advantages, when processing files after uploads and there are several uploaded files per uploader/user/customer..

Thanks. This probably applies more to the server, though. Uppy itself is not “creating folders” or anything like that, it just acquires files, then maybe modifies them and then uploads to any location you specify. We are using timestamps to generate unique file IDs that are used internally to track upload progress and such.
