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

[](#installation)

Require this package with composer. It is recommended to only require the package for development.

```
composer require rik3sh/rb-file-manager
```

### Laravel without auto-discovery:

[](#laravel-without-auto-discovery)

If you don't use auto-discovery, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in config/app.php

```
rik3sh\RBFileManager\FileManagerServiceProvider::class,
```

#### Copy the package config to your local config with the publish command:

[](#copy-the-package-config-to-your-local-config-with-the-publish-command)

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="rik3sh\RBFileManager\FileManagerServiceProvider"
```

The file manager needs a new environment variable named `RB_DISK` and set it's value to either `public` or `s3` according to your file system needs.

If your preffered file system is `s3`, then you will need to enter your s3 bucket cerdentials in the default respective environment variables provided by laravel i.e. `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `AWS_DEFAULT_REGION` and `AWS_BUCKET`.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Once installed you can do stuff like this:

```
use rik3sh\RBFileManager\FileManager;

// Storing a new file
FileManager::storeFile($request->the_file_input_name, 'ANY_FOLDER_NAME_YOU_WANT');

// Replacing/Updating a new file
FileManager::updateFile($request->the_file_input_name, 'ANY_FOLDER_NAME_YOU_WANT', $oldfilename);
// The $oldfilename is optional. If $oldfilename is provided, the new file will replace it.

// Deleting a file
FileManager::deleteFile('ANY_FOLDER_NAME_YOU_WANT', $filename);
```
