⚡ Quick Start
-------------

[](#-quick-start)

### 🚀 Basic Usage

[](#-basic-usage)

```
use Grazulex\ShareLink\Facades\ShareLink;

// Share a file with expiration
$link = ShareLink::create('/path/to/document.pdf')
    ->expiresIn(60) // 60 minutes
    ->maxClicks(5)
    ->withPassword('secret123')
    ->generate();

echo $link->url; // https://yourapp.com/share/abc123xyz
```

### 📁 File Sharing

[](#-file-sharing)

```
// Share a local file
$link = ShareLink::create('/storage/documents/report.pdf')
    ->expiresIn(1440) // 24 hours
    ->maxClicks(10)
    ->generate();

// Share via Laravel Storage
$link = ShareLink::create('s3://bucket/private/document.pdf')
    ->expiresIn(60)
    ->withPassword('secure')
    ->generate();
```

### 🌐 Route Sharing

[](#-route-sharing)

```
// Share a named route with parameters
$link = ShareLink::create([
    'type' => 'route',
    'route' => 'user.profile',
    'parameters' => ['user' => 123]
])
->expiresIn(120)
->generate();
```

### 📊 Model Preview

[](#-model-preview)

```
// Share a model preview (JSON representation)
$user = User::find(1);
$link = ShareLink::create([
    'type' => 'model',
    'class' => User::class,
    'id' => $user->id
])
->expiresIn(30)
->generate();
```

### 🔥 Advanced Security Features

[](#-advanced-security-features)

```
// Burn-after-reading link with IP restrictions
$link = ShareLink::create('/secure/document.pdf')
    ->expiresIn(60)
    ->burnAfterReading() // Self-destructs after first access
    ->metadata([
        'allowed_ips' => ['192.168.1.0/24', '10.0.0.1'],
        'denied_ips' => ['192.168.1.100']
    ])
    ->generate();

// Signed URL for extra security

```
