Meta filesystem, witch you can acreate aliases for other filesystems.

Requirement

• PHP >= 8.1
• Laravel >= 10.x

Installing

$ composer require "besanek/laravel-alias-storage"

Basic Usage

<?php // config/filesystems.php return [ 'something' => [ 'driver' => 'alias', 'target' => 'local', ], ];

In that case, calling Storage::disk('something') will returns local filesystem.

Real life use case

<?php // config/filesystems.php return [ 'video' => [ 'driver' => 'alias', 'target' => env('VIDEO_STORAGE', 'local'), ], 'local' => [ 'driver' => 'local', 'root' => storage_path('app'), ], 's3' => [ 'driver' => 's3', // config ... ] ];

In local development, you can store videos in local filesystem. But in production, you can set environment VIDEO_STORAGE=s3 and your video uploads are stored and served from S3. Awesome!
