Type: Feature Request

Description

StreamPipes already has an Asset Management module: assets represent real-world objects (e.g. machines, stations) and can be linked to resources like pipelines, adapters, and dashboards. Right now, assets are purely data/metadata — there's no way to attach a picture of the actual machine.

StreamPipes also already has a File Management module that supports uploading and storing files (used e.g. for OPC-UA certificates or CSV files). That's a natural building block to reuse instead of building file storage from scratch.

Proposed Feature

• Modify the Asset interface to allow the display of images.
• Modify the editing of Asset to allow the upload and display of images.
• Allow the interaction of images to be removed and deleted.

Acceptance criteria

• An image can be uploaded for an asset via the UI
• The image is displayed when the asset is opened
• The image can be deleted again, with the asset falling back to the no-image state
• Non-image files are rejected with reasonable feedback
