A library that provides an easy way to upload files to the server simply by using configurations.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install via composer into your project:

```
composer require anekdotes/manager

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Use the class where ever you need it:

```
use Anekdotes\Manager\Manager;
```

**See configuration section below for more information**

With **Laravel**:

```
$manager = new Manager(array);
$manager->manage(Input::file('nameOfInput'));
```

Without **Laravel**:

```
$manager = new Manager(array);
$manager->manage($_FILES['nameOfInput']);
```

Catch errors/exceptions:

```
try {
    $manager = new Manager(array);
    $manager->manage($_FILES['nameOfInput']);
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    //do something
}
```

Configurations
--------------

[](#configurations)

### Instantiation

[](#instantiation)

You can pass a config array to the Manager's constructor.

```
    new Manager(array());
```

Available properties:

**prefix** : type *string*. Path's prefix to upload file **(default: `/public`)**

```
    'prefix' => '/public',
```

**path** : type *string*. Path to upload file **(default: `/uploads`)**

```
    'path' => 'uploads/',
```

**exts** : type *array*. Array of all supported file extensions **(default: `jpg, jpeg, png`)**

```
    'exts' => array('jpeg', 'jpg', 'png),
```

**weight** : type *integer*. Maximum file size in bytes **(default: `3 mbs`)**

```
    'weight' => 3000000,
```

**size** : type *array*. Array containing as many sizes as needed **(default: `null`)**

```
    'size' => array(
    ),
```

Put together:

```
    $manager = new Manager(array(
        'prefix' => '/public',
        'path' => 'uploads/',
        'exts' => array('jpeg', 'jpg', 'png),
        'weight' => 3000000
    ));
```

### Manage method's callback

[](#manage-methods-callback)

You may pass a closure to the **manage** method to execute special code before uploading file such as creating an entry in the database or simply changing name.

```
    $manager->manage($_FILES['nameOfInput'], function($fi){
        //do something fancy
        return "potato.jpg";
    });
```

With the above example and default configurations, the new file will be located at **/public/uploads** as **potato.jpg**.
