# Modules

The Remository component automatically installs several modules. They are removed if Remository is uninstalled.

### Multi-module

The multi-module is a very flexible module for providing lists of files. There are a number of alternative selections of files that can be chosen:

- Newest Files - the files most recently added to the repository
- Most requested last x days - analyses the logs for x days and picks most downloaded-
- Most downloads ever - files with the highest total number of downloads
- Random file selection - picks files at random

For each file a number of fields can be shown on each line. The fields available are:

- File Title
- Folder Containing File - Name (and link) to the container of the file
- Thumbnail - shows the file thumbnail, if any
- File Date
- Number of Downloads
- Description of the file
- Name of user who submitted file
- File size
- Joomla Update link

The last item (Joomla Update link) is intended to be used only to display a list of the newest files for the site administrator. It provides the links needed to include in the XML used for Joomla Update.

### Remository Tree

Suitable for small repositories, the tree module gives a diagrammatic display of the repository. The name of the root can be configured, and the root can either be the whole repository or the number of a container for a partial view. One or more containers can be hidden. Containers are always shown, but showing files is optional.

### Remository Containers

This is a simple module that lists the top level containers ask links.

### Remository Total

Even simpler is the total module - it simply shows the total number of files in the repository.
