"""
Base module for Storage modules modular components that store media objects in various locations.
If you are looking to implement a new storage module, you should subclass the `Storage` class and
implement the `get_cdn_url` and `uploadf` methods.
Your module **must** also have two config variables 'path_generator' and 'filename_generator' which
determine how the key is generated for the media object. The 'path_generator' and 'filename_generator'
variables can be set to one of the following values:
- 'flat': A flat structure with no subfolders
- 'url': A structure based on the URL of the media object
- 'random': A random structure
The 'filename_generator' variable can be set to one of the following values:
- 'random': A random string
- 'static': A replicable strategy such as a hash
If you don't want to use this naming convention, you can override the `set_key` method in your subclass.
