Create new file system for laravel
Creating a new file system for Laravel involves several steps:
- Define the file system: Determine what type of file system you want to create (e.g., local, cloud-based, network-based).
- Choose a storage driver: Select a storage driver that will handle the file system's underlying storage (e.g., disk, cloud storage, database).
- Create a file system class: Write a PHP class that extends the
Illuminate\Filesystem\Filesystem
class and implements the necessary methods for interacting with the file system. - Register the file system: Register the new file system in the Laravel application's
filesystems.php
configuration file. - Use the file system: Use the new file system in your Laravel application by injecting it into your controllers, models, or other classes.
Here's an example of how to create a new file system for Laravel:
Step 1: Define the file system
Let's create a file system that stores files in a cloud-based storage service, such as Amazon S3.
Step 2: Choose a storage driver
We'll use the league/flysystem-aws-s3-v3
package to interact with Amazon S3.
Step 3: Create a file system class
Create a new PHP class, e.g., CloudFileSystem.php
, that extends the Illuminate\Filesystem\Filesystem
class:
// app/Filesystems/CloudFileSystem.php
namespace App\Filesystems;
use Illuminate\Filesystem\Filesystem;
use League\Flysystem\AwsS3V3\AwsS3V3Adapter;
use League\Flysystem\Filesystem as Flysystem;
class CloudFileSystem extends Filesystem
{
protected $adapter;
public function __construct(AwsS3V3Adapter $adapter)
{
$this->adapter = $adapter;
}
public function put($path, $contents)
{
return $this->adapter->put($path, $contents);
}
public function get($path)
{
return $this->adapter->read($path);
}
public function delete($path)
{
return $this->adapter->delete($path);
}
}
Step 4: Register the file system
In the filesystems.php
configuration file, add the new file system:
// config/filesystems.php
'cloud' => [
'driver' => 'cloud',
'root' => 'my-bucket',
'key' => env('AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'),
'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
'region' => env('AWS_DEFAULT_REGION'),
],
Step 5: Use the file system
In your Laravel application, you can now use the new file system by injecting it into your controllers, models, or other classes:
// app/Http/Controllers/MyController.php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Filesystems\CloudFileSystem;
class MyController extends Controller
{
public function store(Request $request)
{
$cloudFileSystem = app(CloudFileSystem::class);
$cloudFileSystem->put('path/to/file', $request->file('file'));
//...
}
}
That's it! You've created a new file system for Laravel that stores files in a cloud-based storage service.
