];

• button_class & button_text: Default styling for the picker button.

Assets Management

Publish the CSS and JS assets:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=media-manager-assets

Include the scripts in your main layout (usually before </body>):

@include('media-manager::partials.manager-scripts')

Usage

Blade Component

The easiest way to use the media manager is via the <x-media-picker /> component.

Single Selection (Returns ID):

<x-media-picker name="banner_id" label="Banner" :value="$hall->banner_id" />

Multiple Selection (Returns JSON Array of IDs):

<x-media-picker name="gallery" label="Gallery" :value="$hall->gallery" type="multiple" returnType="array"/>

Multiple Selection (Returns Comma-Separated String of IDs):

<x-media-picker name="gallery" label="Gallery" :value="$hall->gallery" type="multiple" returnType="string"/>

Custom Design:

<x-media-picker 
    name="avatar" 
    button-text="Change Avatar" 
    button-class="btn btn-primary" 
/>

Manual Trigger (JavaScript)

You can trigger the media manager manually from any element:

MediaManager.open({
    type: 'single', // 'single' or 'multiple'
    targetInput: 'my-input-id',
    targetPreview: 'my-preview-container-id',
    onSelect: function(value, items) {
        console.log('Selected value:', value);
        console.log('Selected items:', items);
    }
});

CKEditor Integration

The package includes a route for CKEditor image uploads. Set your CKEditor uploadUrl to: {{ route('ck.image.upload') }}
