FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Quick start

Note
All images are encoded in PNG format as it provides the best ratio between size/quality. For the same reason, the package uses the Imagick driver - in tests, it showed an advantage in speed and final size of the generated images.

Usage

After generation, you need to somehow organize the relationship of images with a specific page (for example, attach to a model). If you already have a solution ready to accept an image and attach it to a specific page, you can get the image as a string instead of saving it:

If after generation you need to get sizes of the image, you can get it as follows:

Usage with spatie/laravel-medialibrary

spatie/laravel-medialibrary is a great package for associate all sorts of files with Eloquent models. If you are using this package (or similar), all you need to do is to add new collections to the model and attach images using media library.

Next, when creating a new page (or updating), generate an og-image and attach it:

Multiple images:

Now you can get the link for the og:image meta tag as follows:
