README

Require this package with composer. It is recommended to only require the package for development.

composer require rik3sh/rb-file-manager

Laravel without auto-discovery:

If you don't use auto-discovery, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in config/app.php

rik3sh\RBFileManager\FileManagerServiceProvider::class,

Copy the package config to your local config with the publish command:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="rik3sh\RBFileManager\FileManagerServiceProvider"

The file manager needs a new environment variable named RB_DISK and set it's value to either public or s3 according to your file system needs.

If your preffered file system is s3, then you will need to enter your s3 bucket cerdentials in the default respective environment variables provided by laravel i.e. AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_DEFAULT_REGION and AWS_BUCKET.

Usage

Once installed you can do stuff like this:

use rik3sh\RBFileManager\FileManager;

// Storing a new file
FileManager::storeFile($request->the_file_input_name, 'ANY_FOLDER_NAME_YOU_WANT');

// Replacing/Updating a new file
FileManager::updateFile($request->the_file_input_name, 'ANY_FOLDER_NAME_YOU_WANT', $oldfilename);
// The $oldfilename is optional. If $oldfilename is provided, the new file will replace it.

// Deleting a file
FileManager::deleteFile('ANY_FOLDER_NAME_YOU_WANT', $filename);
