A simple Laravel 4 service provider for including the AWS SDK for PHP.
The AWS Service Provider can be installed via Composer by requiring the
aws/aws-sdk-php-laravel package and setting the minimum-stability to dev (required for Laravel 4) in your
project's composer.json.
{
"require": {
"aws/aws-sdk-php-laravel": "1.*"
},
"minimum-stability": "dev"
}First you have to register the AWS Service Provider when bootstrap your Laravel application. You can either provide an array of configuration options…
use Aws\Common\Enum\Region;
use Aws\Laravel\AwsServiceProvider;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Application;
$app = new Application();
// ...
$app->register(new AwsServiceProvider($app), array(
'config' => array(
'aws' => array(
'key' => '<your-aws-access-key-id>',
'secret' => '<your-aws-secret-access-key>',
'region' => Region::US_WEST_2,
),
),
));Or you can specify the path to an AWS config file (see AWS SDK for PHP for details).
$app->register(new AwsServiceProvider($app), array('config' => array('aws' => '/path/to/aws/config/file.php')));Either way, the value of $app['config']['aws'] is passed directly into Aws\Common\Aws::factory().
In order to use the SDK from within your app, you need to retrieve it from the Laravel IoC Container.
$s3 = App::make('aws')->get('s3');
$s3->putObject(array(
'Bucket' => '<your-bucket>',
'Key' => 'the-name-of-your-object',
'SourceFile' => '/path/to/the/file/you/are/uploading.ext',
));
