Uses a 2-year decay window. **Popularity (30%)** — Total and monthly downloads, GitHub stars, and forks. Logarithmic scaling prevents top-heavy scores. **Community (15%)** — Contributors, dependents, forks, watchers, and maintainers. Measures real ecosystem engagement. **Maturity (30%)** — Project age, version count, PHP version support, and release stability. ### Release Activity Cadence Every ~319 days Recently: every ~350 days Total 6 Last Release 1172d ago ### Community Maintainers ![](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/a6d25412f9819bf51eaf3cb005d1f1239f2b81081c51018240d132b98e6ad2b8?d=identicon)[dreamfactory](/maintainers/dreamfactory) --- Top Contributors [![xaviered](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1844174?v=4)](https://github.com/xaviered "xaviered (16 commits)")[![jacobko](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1041097?v=4)](https://github.com/jacobko "jacobko (6 commits)")[![volodymyrpoli](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/48056356?v=4)](https://github.com/volodymyrpoli "volodymyrpoli (5 commits)")[![Thanavath](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/765961?v=4)](https://github.com/Thanavath "Thanavath (3 commits)")[![yosshi](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/41183?v=4)](https://github.com/yosshi "yosshi (1 commits)")[![dshap](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/283225?v=4)](https://github.com/dshap "dshap (1 commits)")[![tranch](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/5999732?v=4)](https://github.com/tranch "tranch (1 commits)")[![daniilly](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/117088089?v=4)](https://github.com/daniilly "daniilly (1 commits)") ### Embed Badge ![Health badge](/badges/dreamfactory-php-webhdfs/health.svg) ``` [![Health](https://phpackages.com/badges/dreamfactory-php-webhdfs/health.svg)](https://phpackages.com/packages/dreamfactory-php-webhdfs) ``` ### Alternatives [knplabs/gaufrette PHP library that provides a filesystem abstraction layer 2.5k39.8M123](/packages/knplabs-gaufrette)[google/cloud-storage Cloud Storage Client for PHP 34390.8M125](/packages/google-cloud-storage)[illuminate/filesystem The Illuminate Filesystem package. 15261.6M2.6k](/packages/illuminate-filesystem)[superbalist/flysystem-google-storage Flysystem adapter for Google Cloud Storage 26320.6M30](/packages/superbalist-flysystem-google-storage)[creocoder/yii2-flysystem The flysystem extension for the Yii framework 2931.7M62](/packages/creocoder-yii2-flysystem)[flowjs/flow-php-server PHP library for handling chunk uploads.
