Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/RD17/ambar/issues/112

Raised feature request as suggested in issue #109 by sochix.

Description:
There is a samba server on the same machine as ambar or in an accessible network. It could be handy to link search results directly to the source files.

as a User:
As a User, I can search for a document in ambar. I see an additional "download arraow" next to the existing one. When hoovering it says "Download from Origin". It also looks a little different than the arrow existing. When I click on the new arrow, the file download starts from the directory/source the document was scanned.

as an Administrator:
I can see a new value in config.json "OriginLinking" with valid values of true or false (boolean).
If true
. all indexed documents are linked to the directory of origin
if false
. no changes as of today

System
The path to dir is taken from settings XML locations:host_name | locations:ip_address / locations:location.
However, maybe it is probably better to introduce a new (optional) value in settings -> locations e.g
locations:OriginLink

That would be nice to have. I don't even see a download button currently, unless I'm missing something.
