• Provides a caching mechanism to reduce latency

Installation

To install the AWS S3 Laravel package, you need to use Composer. Here is the command you need to enter in your terminal:

composer require aws/aws-sdk-php-laravel

After that, you need to update your config/app.php file and add the following line to the providers array:

Aws\Laravel\AwsServiceProvider::class,

And add the following line to the aliases array:

'S3' => Aws\Laravel\AwsFacade::class,

Finally, you need to create the S3 configuration file by running the following command:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Aws\Laravel\AwsServiceProvider"

This will create a config/aws.php file, which you can modify to your liking.

Usage

To use the AWS S3 Laravel package, you can call the S3 facade in your Laravel application. Here is an example of how to upload a file to S3:

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;

class FileController extends Controller
{
    public function upload(Request $request)
    {
        $file = $request->file('file');

        $path = Storage::disk('s3')->putFile('my-bucket', $file);

        return view('success', ['path' => $path]);
    }
}

This code will upload the file specified in the Request object to the my-bucket bucket on S3. The path of the uploaded file will be returned in the path variable.

Conclusion

The AWS S3 Laravel package is a powerful tool that makes it easy to integrate Amazon S3 into your Laravel application. It provides a simple and intuitive interface, and supports all the features you would expect from a modern file storage system.
