I’m wondering if there is a plugin to save uploaded files into Azure blob storage. Probably not…
If so, any pointers as to what plugin template I can study to write something like this?
Amazon S3 support is baked into the core instead of being a plugin, so I’m not sure if it will be easy to do in a plugin.
@maja can you update the topic here with your progress?
I have created a repository with what I’ve done in previous week: GitHub - majakomel/discourse-azure-blob-storage: A Discourse plugin for storing images and files in azure blob storage · GitHub. Basic functionality is there, apart from purge_tombstone, also there seems to be an issue with avatars that I need to fix.
Plugin now works with Azure CDN as well. It would be great to get some feedback, if someone feels like testing it. Plugin is activated as soon as it’s installed (enable setting doesn’t do anything yet). It can be configured under Admin → Settings → Plugins, account name, access key and container name are required.
@schungx / @SimonWu Me preguntaba si tendríais un ratito para probar el nuevo plugin de @maja.
Realmente queremos que el almacenamiento en blob de Azure funcione bien y esta es la primera vez que tenemos un plugin 
@maja deberíamos crear un tema dedicado para esto en la categoría Customization > Plugin que documente cómo usarlo, las preocupaciones, etc.
Sure, I will give a try.
Love to. I’ll install it when I get to sit at my desk.
It throws error when I try to upload a picture in post.

@maja, could you help?
Looks like your code is out of date, do you have latest Discourse version?
The reference in the error is to a new feature @eviltrout added today.
Lucky me 
I still suspect your DB or code is out of date unless you can repro this on try.discourse.org
The issue get resolved after update the DB.
@maja The Azure blob storage plugin works fine for me now. Thanks a lot.
