Installation

The field is purposed for work with the Laravel-MediaLibrary package made by Spatie and extends default field Image

composer require visual-ideas/moonshine-spatie-medialibrary

Before using the Spatie\MediaLibrary field, make sure that:

• The spatie/laravel-medialibrary package is installed and configured
• The visual-ideas/moonshine-spatie-medialibrary package is installed
• The field passed to Spatie\MediaLibrary is added as the name of the collection via ->addMediaCollection('Field')

In the model:

use Spatie\MediaLibrary\HasMedia;
use Spatie\MediaLibrary\InteractsWithMedia;
 
class ModelClass extends Model implements HasMedia
{
    use InteractsWithMedia;
 
    //...
    
    public function registerMediaCollections(): void
    {
        $this->addMediaCollection('cover');
    }
    
    //...
}

In the MoonShine:

use VI\MoonShineSpatieMediaLibrary\Fields\MediaLibrary;

//...

MediaLibrary::make('Cover', 'cover'),

//...

By default, the field works in a single image mode

use Spatie\MediaLibrary\HasMedia;
use Spatie\MediaLibrary\InteractsWithMedia;
 
class ModelClass extends Model implements HasMedia
{
    use InteractsWithMedia;
    
    //...
    
    public function registerMediaCollections(): void
    {
        $this->addMediaCollection('cover')->singleFile();
    }
    
    //...
}

If you want to use a field to load multiple images, add the ->multiple() method when declaring the field

use VI\MoonShineSpatieMediaLibrary\Fields\MediaLibrary;

//...

MediaLibrary::make('Gallery', 'gallery')->multiple(),

//...
