This is a handler that allows file galleries to created or updated. Object References are required to create trees of file galleries. Uploading files is not supported before Tiki 9 when the init_files option was introduced.
All the items in the table below are parameters that are set at the 'data' level of the YAML and are generally applicable for Tiki12 and later but may not all work for earlier Tiki versions.
Before the data level, ie at the first 'object' level the type: is defined i.e. file_gallery, a ref: can be defined.
TO VERIFY: previously documented "In addition a mode option can be set which can be 'create' or 'update' or 'create_update' (default: create even if exists)." It should be that the mode be set at the "data" level not at the higher level. But it seems like it depends on whether galleryId is set or not. If galleryId is not set, then it always creates a new one (and update mode will generate an error). If update mode is set, then it checks that the file gallery specified exists. Other than this checking, it looks like the mode has no effect. If mode is not set, it will update if galleryId is set or create a new one if galleryId is not set
