README

Chunked file uploader for Laravel 10–12 speaking Upload Protocol v1, with a Drag & Drop JS widget. Thin binding over the framework-agnostic xakki/file-uploader core.

Upgrading from 0.2? See MIGRATION.md. The public Laravel API (facades, routes, config, widget) is preserved; only the internals moved to the core.

composer require xakki/file-uploader-laravel

The service provider is auto-discovered. It registers the routes and, on package:discover, publishes the config (without overwriting your edits) and the widget asset automatically. New config keys from package upgrades are merged in at runtime, so an older published config/file-uploader.php keeps working. To (re)publish manually:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=file-uploader-config
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=file-uploader-assets

Configure

config/file-uploader.php (key options):

'disk' => env('FILE_UPLOADER_DISK', 'public'),   // any league/flysystem disk
'directory' => '/',
'chunk_size' => 1024 * 1024,                      // 1 MiB
'max_size' => 1024 * 1024 * 50,                   // 50 MiB
'max_files' => 0,                                 // cap on active (non-deleted) files; 0 = unlimited (FILE_UPLOADER_MAX_FILES)
'allowed_extensions' => [ /* mime => ext map; '*' = any */ ],
'middleware' => ['web', 'auth'],
'route_prefix' => 'file-upload',
'soft_delete' => true,
'trash_ttl_days' => 30,
'public_url_resolver' => null,                    // fn(string $path, $disk): ?string
'full_access' => ['users' => [], 'roles' => []],  // who may manage any file

S3 / CloudFront

Point disk at an s3 filesystem. For signed/CDN URLs, set public_url_resolver to a closure returning the URL for a path (the core never calls $disk->url() itself).

Widget

Inject the widget service and render it in a Blade view:

public function show(\Xakki\LaravelFileUploader\Services\FileWidget $widget)
{
    return view('page', ['uploader' => $widget->getWidget()]);
}

{!! $uploader !!}

It emits the mount point, the JS config (route URLs + CSRF token + flags, including maxFiles) and the published UMD widget from public/vendor/file-uploader/file-uploader.umd.js.

The 0.3.2 widget (from @xakki/file-uploader) supports theming (light / dark / auto colour schemes, custom styles) and i18n (built-in en / ru, plus per-string overrides). See the js README for the full widget config surface.

HTTP API

Registered under route_prefix with the configured middleware:

Responses use the shared Upload Protocol v1 envelope, identical to the Symfony binding and the demo.

PHP service

$widget = app(\Xakki\LaravelFileUploader\Services\FileWidget::class);
$files = $widget->list();
$widget->delete($id);
$widget->restore($id);
$widget->cleanupTrash();

Services\FileUpload (uploads) and Services\FileWidget (management + widget) are thin subclasses of the core FileUploader / FileManager, wired to Laravel's disk, Auth, Date and logger.

Console

php artisan file-uploader:cleanup          # purge expired trash
php artisan file-uploader:sync-metadata    # rebuild metadata from stored files

i18n

Server messages (upload/chunk/trash/cleanup results, plus the error.* and validation.* codes) are localized from the shared core catalog that ships inside xakki/file-uploader (protocol/i18n/<locale>.json, 8 locales: en ru es pt zh fr de sr) — the same catalog every binding and the JS client use. The response envelope now also carries the stable code (and params) that produced the message, so clients can re-localize.

The locale for these messages is resolved per Upload Protocol §5.1: the request locale field (only when it is in the locales allow-list) → the locale config default → en. Note: this supersedes the previous app()->getLocale() behaviour for these server-produced messages — the protocol's per-request locale field now drives the language.

The Laravel UploadChunkRequest (FormRequest) emits its per-field validation messages through Laravel's own localization (the standard validation.* lines); only the upload/file result text and the error.* / code envelope route through the shared core catalog.

Test

composer install && composer phpunit
