A temporary plugin which adds two new formtools which support uploading direct to Azure Blob Storage.
It includes an azureupload formtool for single file properties and an azurearrayupload formtool
for array properties (multiple file uploads using related objects).
These features will eventually be integrated into the image and file formtools in Core, so this plugin is intended as a stop gap alternative until then.
This plugin is compatible with FarCry 7.2.x and over.
Azure Upload Plugin is available under LGPL and compatible with the open source and commercial licenses of FarCry Core.
