🚀 Introduction
--------------

[](#-introduction)

By default, **Laravel’s `temporaryUrl()` method** works perfectly with S3-compatible storage.
It generates a temporary URL to an object in your S3 bucket, easy peasy!

But when you switch to **[MinIO](https://min.io/)**, things get a little wild. Temporary URLs might **not work** if the generated endpoint isn’t directly accessible by your client (browser, mobile app, etc).

You may have run into this when using `temporaryUrl()` directly, or when a package like [spatie/laravel-medialibrary](https://github.com/spatie/laravel-medialibrary) calls `$media->getTemporaryUrl()` behind the scenes.

From the Laravel documentation:

Warning

Generating temporary storage URLs via the `temporaryUrl` method may not work when using MinIO if the `endpoint` is not accessible by the client. , [Laravel Filesystem Docs](https://laravel.com/docs/12.x/filesystem#minio)

**But here’s the BIG question:**

### How do you make MinIO’s `temporaryUrl()` work in Laravel?

[](#how-do-you-make-minios-temporaryurl-work-in-laravel)

This package is your **plug-and-play hero!** Just install it, and let the magic happen. 🎩✨

---

📦 Installation
--------------

[](#-installation)

Install the package via [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/):

```
composer require hosni/laravel-temporary-urls-minio
```

Laravel will auto-discover the service provider using [Package Discovery](https://laravel.com/docs/12.x/packages#package-discovery). No extra steps, just sit back and relax!

---

⚙️ Configuration
----------------

[](#️-configuration)

In your `.env` file, set your MinIO configuration like a boss:

```
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=minioadmin
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=minioadmin
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1
AWS_BUCKET=my-bucket

# Internal MinIO endpoint (used for signing)
AWS_ENDPOINT=http://minio:9000

# Publicly accessible endpoint (used in signed URLs)
MINIO_PUBLIC_URL=https://storage.example.com
```

Next, in `config/filesystems.php`:

```
'disks' => [
    's3' => [
        'driver' => 's3',
        'key' => env('AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'),
        'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
        'region' => env('AWS_DEFAULT_REGION'),
        'bucket' => env('AWS_BUCKET'),
        'url' => env('AWS_URL'),
        'endpoint' => env('AWS_ENDPOINT'),
        'use_path_style_endpoint' => env('AWS_USE_PATH_STYLE_ENDPOINT', false),
        'throw' => false,
        'report' => false,

    /**
     * Add this to your s3 disk configuration.
     * This is where the magic happens! 🪄
     */
    'temporary_url' => env('MINIO_PUBLIC_URL'), // 👈 used for rewriting signed URLs
    ],
],
```

---

🛠 Usage
-------

[](#-usage)

Just use Laravel’s filesystem like you always do:

```
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;

$url = Storage::disk('minio')->temporaryUrl(
    'uploads/myfile.jpg',
    now()->addMinutes(5)
);

return $url;
```

👉 The returned `$url` will always be valid and accessible from your client. You can thank me later! 😎

You can also use this with [spatie/laravel-medialibrary](https://github.com/spatie/laravel-medialibrary):

```
$mediaItems = $yourModel->getMedia();
$temporaryS3Url = $mediaItems[0]->getTemporaryUrl(now()->addMinutes(5));
```

No need to install packages like [coreproc/laravel-minio-media-library-provider](https://github.com/CoreProc/laravel-minio-media-library-provider), which take a different (and less effective) approach! Their solution simply returns the MinIO endpoint URL, which is only accessible inside your Docker network, not so helpful if you want to share files with the outside world. 😅

With this package, your temporary URLs are always accessible, inside or outside Docker. No hacks, no headaches, just happy URLs!

---

🔍 How It Works
--------------

[](#-how-it-works)

1. Laravel signs the request using your internal MinIO endpoint (`AWS_ENDPOINT`).
2. This package swoops in and intercepts the signed URL.
3. It **rewrites the host** from the internal endpoint to the public URL you configured (`MINIO_PUBLIC_URL`).
4. The result? A valid, signed, **publicly accessible** temporary URL. 🎉

---

✅ Example
---------

[](#-example)

If your `.env` looks like this:

```
AWS_ENDPOINT=http://minio:9000
MINIO_PUBLIC_URL=https://cdn.example.com
```

Then, when you do:

```
Storage::disk('minio')->temporaryUrl('photos/pic.jpg', now()->addMinutes(10));
```

You’ll get something like:

```
https://cdn.example.com/photos/pic.jpg?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=...

```

Instead of:

```
http://minio:9000/photos/pic.jpg?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=...

```
