Media ​

Media issue. ​

Image uploaded successful but doesn't display. ​

Make sure you have done following steps:

• Make sure APP_URL in .env is correct.
• Make sure PHP extension GD or Imagick is enabled.
• Chmod folder public/storage to make it writeable.
• Go to Admin -> Settings -> Media and set Driver to Local.

Change media image sizes ​

Option 1: Override media config ​

Copy platform/core/media/config/media.php to config/media.php and change the media sizes.

<?php

return [
    ...
    'sizes' => [
        'thumb'    => '150x150',
        'featured' => '560x380',
        'medium'   => '540x360',
    ],
    ...
];

Option 2: Modify it from your theme, media sizes will depend on your theme. ​

Add to platform/themes/your-theme/functions/functions.php or in your plugin service providers.

\RvMedia::addSize('featured', 560, 380);

Add many sizes:

\RvMedia::addSize('featured', 560, 380)
    ->addSize(<name>, <width>, <height>)
    ...

After that, you need to run command to regenerate thumbnails.

php artisan cms:media:thumbnail:generate

How to use:

{{ RvMedia::getImageUrl($post->image, 'post-small') }}

Add more file extensions. ​

By default, media management supports some file extensions: jpg,jpeg,png,gif,txt,docx,zip,mp3,bmp,csv,xls,xlsx,ppt,pptx,pdf,mp4,doc,mpga,wav,webp.

You can add more file extensions if you want.

Add to .env:

RV_MEDIA_ALLOWED_MIME_TYPES=jpg,jpeg,png,gif,txt,docx,zip,mp3,bmp,csv,xls,xlsx,ppt,pptx,pdf,mp4,doc,mpga,wav,webp

Custom upload ​

You can create your custom upload with RvMedia facade.

Ex:

\RvMedia::handleUpload(request()->file('file'), 0, 'your-folder');

Get image by size ​

To get image by size, you can use RvMedia::getImageUrl($url, $size = null, $relative_path = false, $default = null).

Ex:

RvMedia::getImageUrl($post->image, 'thumb');

If you have registered other size, you can change thumb by your size's name.

Upload file from a path ​

You can fake a file upload from a path with UploadedFile and upload it using RvMedia::handleUpload()

Ex:

$folder = \Botble\Media\Models\MediaFolder::create([
    'name' => 'Example',
    'slug' => 'example',
]);
$fileUpload = new \Illuminate\Http\UploadedFile(database_path('files/example.png'), 'example.png', 'image/png', null, true);
$image = \RvMedia::handleUpload($fileUpload, $folder->id);

Increase upload file size ​

• The Maximum file size is 2MB by default.

• To increase file upload size in PHP, you need to modify the upload_max_filesize and post_max_size variable’s in your php.ini file. If you can't change it, please contact your hosing provider to increase those values.

upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 10M
