laravel-azure-storage

Microsoft Azure Blob Storage integration for Laravel's Storage API

Requirements

• Laravel 5.6

Installation

Install the package using composer:

composer require feilongcui/laravel-azure-storage

Then add this to the disks section of config/filesystems.php:

    'azure' => [
        'driver'    => 'azure',
        'name'      => env('AZURE_ACCOUNT_NAME'),
        'key'       => env('AZURE_ACCOUNT_KEY'),
        'container' => env('AZURE_CONTAINER_NAME'),
    ],

Finally, add the fields AZURE_ACCOUNT_NAME, AZURE_ACCOUNT_KEY and AZURE_CONTAINER_NAME to your .env file with the appropriate credentials. Then you can set the azure driver as either your default or cloud driver and use it to fetch and retrieve files as usual.

Constructing a URL

This driver doesn't support the Storage::url($path) method, and adding support as a third-party package doesn't appear to be practical. However, you can construct a URL to retrieve the asset as follows:

$url = 'https://' . config('filesystems.disks.azure.name'). '.blob.core.windows.net/' . config('filesystems.disks.azure.container') . '/' . $filename;

You may want to create a helper function for this.
