Laravel CDN Assets Manager

Content Delivery Network Package for Laravel

The package provides the developer the ability to upload his assets (or any public file) to a CDN with a single artisan command. And then it allows him to switch between the local and the online version of the files.

Laravel Support

• For Laravel 5.1 use the latest realease (master).
• For Laravel 4.2 use the realease v1.0.1 Last suport for L 4.2

Highlights

• Amazon Web Services - S3
• Artisan command to upload content to CDN
• Simple Facade to access CDN assets

Installation

Via Composer

Require vinelab/cdn in your project:

composer require vinelab/cdn:*

Since this is a Laravel package we need to register the service provider:

Add the service provider to config/app.php:

'providers' => array(
     //...
     Vinelab\Cdn\CdnServiceProvider::class,
),

Configuration

Set the Credentials in the .env file.

Note: you must have an .env file at the project root, to hold your sensitive information.

AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=

Publish the package config file:

php artisan vendor:publish vinelab/cdn

You can find it at config/cdn.php

Usage

Push

Upload assets to CDN

php artisan cdn:push

Empty

Delete assets from CDN

php artisan cdn:empty

Load Assets

Use the facade Cdn to call the Cdn::asset() function.

Note: the asset works the same as the Laravel asset it start looking for assets in the public/ directory:

{{Cdn::asset('assets/js/main.js')}}        // example result: https://js-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/public/assets/js/main.js

{{Cdn::asset('assets/css/style.css')}}        // example result: https://css-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/public/assets/css/style.css

Note: the elixir works the same as the Laravel elixir it loads the manifest.json file from build folder and choose the correct file revision generated by gulp:

{{Cdn::elixir('assets/js/main.js')}}        // example result: https://js-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/public/build/assets/js/main-85cafe36ff.js

{{Cdn::elixir('assets/css/style.css')}}        // example result: https://css-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/public/build/assets/css/style-2d558139f2.css

To use a file from outside the public/ directory, anywhere in app/ use the Cdn::path() function:

{{Cdn::path('private/something/file.txt')}}        // example result: https://css-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/private/something/file.txt

Test

To run the tests, run the following command from the project folder.

$ ./vendor/bin/phpunit
