Upload Plugin 2.0
=================

[](#upload-plugin-20)

The Upload Plugin is an attempt to sanely upload files using techniques garnered packages such as [MeioUpload](http://github.com/jrbasso/MeioUpload) , [UploadPack](http://github.com/szajbus/cakephp-uploadpack) and [PHP documentation](http://php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php).

Background
----------

[](#background)

Media Plugin is too complicated, and it was a PITA to merge the latest updates into MeioUpload, so here I am, building yet another upload plugin. I'll build another in a month and call it "YAUP".

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- CakePHP 2.x
- Imagick/GD PHP Extension (for Thumbnail Creation)
- PHP5
- Patience

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

[](#installation)

*\[Using [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/)\]*

[View on Packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/josegonzalez/cakephp-upload), and copy the json snippet for the latest version into your project's `composer.json`. Eg, v. 1.0.0 would look like this:

```
{
	"require": {
		"josegonzalez/cakephp-upload": "1.0.0"
	}
}
```

Because this plugin has the type `cakephp-plugin` set in it's own `composer.json`, composer knows to install it inside your `/Plugins` directory, rather than in the usual vendors file. It is recommended that you add `/Plugins/Upload` to your .gitignore file. (Why? [read this](http://getcomposer.org/doc/faqs/should-i-commit-the-dependencies-in-my-vendor-directory.md).)

*\[Manual\]*

- Download this:
- Unzip that download.
- Copy the resulting folder to `app/Plugin`
- Rename the folder you just copied to `Upload`

*\[GIT Submodule\]*

In your app directory type:

```
git submodule add -b master git://github.com/josegonzalez/cakephp-upload.git Plugin/Upload
git submodule init
git submodule update
```

*\[GIT Clone\]*

In your `Plugin` directory type:

```
git clone -b master git://github.com/josegonzalez/cakephp-upload.git Upload
```

### Imagick Support

[](#imagick-support)

To enable Imagick support, you need to have imagick installed:

```
# Debian systems
sudo apt-get install php-imagick

# OS X Homebrew
brew tap homebrew/dupes
brew tap josegonzalez/homebrew-php
brew install php54-imagick

# From pecl
pecl install imagick
```

If you cannot install imagick, please do not use imagick, and instead configure the plugin with `'thumbnailMethod'  => 'php'` in your setup options.

### Enable plugin

[](#enable-plugin)

In 2.0 you need to enable the plugin your `app/Config/bootstrap.php` file:

```
