];
```

🧹 Cleanup
---------

[](#-cleanup)

### Automatic Cleanup

[](#automatic-cleanup)

The package automatically cleans up expired and processed media hourly. You can configure this in the config file.

### Manual Cleanup

[](#manual-cleanup)

```
# Clean up all expired and processed media
php artisan temp-media:cleanup

# Clean up only expired media
php artisan temp-media:cleanup --expired-only

# Clean up only processed media
php artisan temp-media:cleanup --processed-only

# Dry run to see what would be cleaned
php artisan temp-media:cleanup --dry-run
```

### Programmatic Cleanup

[](#programmatic-cleanup)

```
use Medox\LaravelTempMedia\Contracts\TempMediaServiceInterface;
use Medox\LaravelTempMedia\Contracts\MediaTransferServiceInterface;

// Clean up expired media
$expiredCount = app(TempMediaServiceInterface::class)->cleanupExpired();

// Clean up processed media
$processedCount = app(MediaTransferServiceInterface::class)->cleanupProcessedTempMedia();
```

📡 Events
--------

[](#-events)

The package dispatches several events for custom integrations:

### TempMediaUploaded

[](#tempmediauploaded)

```
use Medox\LaravelTempMedia\Events\TempMediaUploaded;

Event::listen(TempMediaUploaded::class, function (TempMediaUploaded $event) {
    // Handle upload event
    Log::info('Media uploaded', ['id' => $event->tempMedia->id]);
});
```

### MediaTransferred

[](#mediatransferred)

```
use Medox\LaravelTempMedia\Events\MediaTransferred;

Event::listen(MediaTransferred::class, function (MediaTransferred $event) {
    // Handle transfer event
    Notification::send($event->targetModel->user, new MediaTransferredNotification());
});
```

### TempMediaExpired

[](#tempmediaexpired)

```
use Medox\LaravelTempMedia\Events\TempMediaExpired;

Event::listen(TempMediaExpired::class, function (TempMediaExpired $event) {
    // Handle expiration event
    Log::info('Media expired', ['id' => $event->tempMedia->id]);
});
```

🧪 Testing
---------

[](#-testing)

### Running Tests

[](#running-tests)

```
# Run all tests
php artisan test

# Run specific test suite

### Test Example

[](#test-example)

```
use Medox\LaravelTempMedia\Tests\TestCase;
use Illuminate\Http\UploadedFile;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;

class TempMediaUploadTest extends TestCase
{
    public function test_can_upload_temporary_media()
    {
        Storage::fake('public');

        $file = UploadedFile::fake()->image('test.jpg');

        $response = $this->postJson('/api/v1/temp-media', [
            'file' => $file
        ]);

        $response->assertStatus(201)
                ->assertJsonStructure([
                    'success',
                    'data' => [
                        'id',
                        'url',
                        'original_name',
                        'mime_type',
                        'size',
                        'expires_at',
                        'is_temporary'
                    ]
                ]);
    }
}
```

🔧 Advanced Features
-------------------

[](#-advanced-features)

### Custom Media Properties

[](#custom-media-properties)

```
$customProperties = [
    'alt_text' => 'Product image',
    'category' => 'product',
    'featured' => true
];

$result = $transferService->transferTempMediaToModel(
    $model,
    $transferDto,
    'images',
    $customProperties
);
```

### Order Management

[](#order-management)

```
$items = [
    new TempMediaItemDTO('temp-id-1', 1), // First position
    new TempMediaItemDTO('temp-id-2', 2), // Second position
    new TempMediaItemDTO('temp-id-3', 3), // Third position
];

$transferDto = new TempMediaTransferDTO($items);
```

### Media Conversions

[](#media-conversions)

Enable thumbnail generation:

```
// In config/temp-media.php
'generate_conversions' => true,
```

This generates:

- `thumb`: 300x300 pixels with sharpening
- `small`: 150x150 pixels
