How to use google cloud storage as Laravel 5 filesystem?

Solved php laravel-5 google-cloud-storage flysystem laravel-filesystem

I'm developing an application that lets my users upload files, and I've made it works with "local" disk using filesystem feature, but now I want to migrate and use google Google Cloud Storage for it.

It has been a lot difficult to find some useful information. In the docs there is an "example" for work with dropbox, but it's not complete. It doesn't shows how to config drivers and disk, so it isn't clear enough for me.

I would like to know what to do, since I have no idea from now.

I've just used this tutorial http://www.codetutorial.io/laravel-5-file-upload-storage-download/ and it's working for local, so I really need to migrate to google cloud storage, and only that. I'm using openshift and I feel comfortable about it.

Could you please help me to know what should I configure filesystem to be used as I need?

Thank you

I've found a solution.

It seems that Google Cloud Storage uses the same api than Amazon S3, so I could use it as I would use amazon, the same driver.

The only thing I needed to change was when I config disks in laravel, using this code in config/filesystems when adding a disk for google:

'google' => [
    'driver' => 's3',
     'key' => 'xxx',
     'secret' => 'xxx',
     'bucket' => 'qrnotesfiles',
     'base_url'=>'https://storage.googleapis.com'
]

Where do I find my key/secret? Can't seem to see it in GCP – Neomaneomah 12/3, 2017 at 20:58

It seems like Aws\S3\S3Client no longer supports passing base_url? league/flysystem-aws-s3-v3 ^1.0 – Blank 19/7, 2018 at 20:44

Does this still work? Getting an error about missing region – Outwardbound 3/5, 2019 at 13:7

To get "league/flysystem-aws-s3-v3": "^1.0" working specify region and set endpoint instead of base_url. – Marion 13/5, 2019 at 14:37
