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.

Informations about the package laravel-azure-storage

DEPRECATION NOTICE

This package is dependent on Flysystem's Azure Blob Storage integration. The creator of that has announced that because Microsoft are dropping support for their PHP storage client, he will also be dropping Azure support from Flysystem in 2024.

As a result, there is no viable path for me to continue to maintain this package past that point. In addition, I myself have never actually had the need to use this package and only maintained it for reasons of inertia. It's therefore deprecated as of March 2024.

There is now a maintained replacement available at https://github.com/Azure-OSS/azure-storage-php-adapter-laravel, which should be a straightforward switch.

Microsoft Azure Blob Storage integration for Laravel's Storage API.

This is a custom driver for Laravel's File Storage API, which is itself built on top of Flysystem 3. It uses Flysystem's own Azure blob storage adapter, and so can't easily add any more functionality than that has - indeed, adding that would be out of scope for the project.

Installation

Install the package using composer:

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

Finally, add the fields AZURE_STORAGE_NAME, AZURE_STORAGE_KEY, AZURE_STORAGE_CONTAINER and AZURE_STORAGE_URL to your .env file with the appropriate credentials. The AZURE_STORAGE_URL field is optional, this allows you to set a custom URL to be returned from Storage::url(), if using the $root container the URL will be returned without the container path. A prefix can be optionally used. If it's not set, the container root is used. Then you can set the azure driver as either your default or cloud driver and use it to fetch and retrieve files as usual.

For details on how to use this driver, refer to the Laravel documentation on the file storage API.

Custom endpoints

The package supports using a custom endpoint, as in this example:

Then you can specify a suitable value for AZURE_STORAGE_ENDPOINT in your .env file as normal.

SAS token authentication

With SAS token authentication the endpoint is required. The value has the following format: https://[accountName].blob.core.windows.net

Retries

The Azure Storage SDK ships a middleware to retry failed requests. To enable the retry middewalre, add a retry directive to the disk's configuration options.

Unsupported features

As this package uses the Flysystem Azure integration, it shares the following limitations with that:

Support policy

This package is supported on the current Laravel LTS version, and any later versions. If you are using an older Laravel version, it may work, but I offer no guarantees, nor will I accept pull requests to add this support.

By extension, as the current Laravel LTS version required PHP 7.0 or greater, I don't test it against PHP < 7, nor will I accept any pull requests to add this support.

Can you add support for storage backend X?

No. This is exclusively for Azure Blob storage, and I am categorically not interested in expanding the scope of it to support other backends.

As long as Flysystem supports it, you can roll your own Laravel filesystem driver easily as described at https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/filesystem#custom-filesystems if you need to - this is the method I used to build this package.
