Component — Storage and Cloud distribution

Spiral offers a comprehensive solution for file storage and distribution through its spiral/storage and spiral/distribution components. The spiral/storage component provides powerful storage abstraction utilizing the capabilities of the Flysystem PHP package, offering convenient drivers for working with both local file systems and Amazon S3. The spiral/distribution component, which is integrated with the spiral/storage component, is responsible for generating public HTTP links for resources stored through the storage component.

Storage

The component spiral/storage provides powerful storage abstraction thanks to the wonderful Flysystem PHP package by Frank de Jonge. The Storage component integration provides simple drivers for working with local filesystems and Amazon S3. Even better, it's super simple to switch between these storage options between your local development machine and production server as the API remains the same for each system.

Note
Unlike classical file systems, the store component provides an API which provides the operations of writing a file, checking its existence, reading and getting a public address of this file. All operations (which classic file systems have) for working with directories, or a list of files are not available.

Installation

To install the component:

composer require spiral/storage

Make sure to add Spiral\Storage\Bootloader\StorageBootloader to the list of bootloaders in your application:

php
app/src/Application/Kernel.php
public function defineBootloaders(): array
{
    return [
        // ...
        \Spiral\Storage\Bootloader\StorageBootloader::class,
        // ...
    ];
}

Read more about bootloaders in the Framework — Bootloaders section.

Configuration

A storage configuration file, by default, is located at app/config/storage.php. This file allows for the configuration of servers and specific storages, also known as buckets. The servers section is where you can configure the servers that your application will use, while the buckets section allows you to specify which storages will be used by your servers.

For example, the simplest configuration with one server and two storages might look like this:

php
app/config/storage.php
return [

    /**
     * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     *  Default Storage Bucket Name
     * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     *
     * Here you can specify which of the buckets you want to use by default for
     * all work with storages.
     *
     */

    'default' => env('STORAGE_SERVER', 'uploads'),

    /**
     * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     *  Storage Servers
     * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     *
     * Here is each of the servers configured for your application. Of
     * course, the examples of customizing each available server supported by
     * Spiral are shown below to simplify development.
     *
     */

    'servers' => [
        'static' => [
            'adapter' => 'local',
            'directory' => __DIR__ . '/../../runtime/static',
        ],

        's3' => [
            'adapter' => 's3', // or "s3-async"
            'region' => env('S3_REGION'),
            'bucket' => env('S3_BUCKET'),
            'key' => env('S3_KEY'),
            'secret' => env('S3_SECRET'),
        ],
    ],

    /**
     * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     *  Storage Buckets
     * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     *
     * Here is a list of specific buckets (or storages) that use the
     * server settings above. Each "server" section in this list must refer to a
     * valid server name in the list above.
     *
     * The list of settings in this case is also an example of use. You can
     * freely change the number of buckets and the type of settings as you wish.
     *
     */

    'buckets' => [
        'uploads' => [
            'server' => 'static',
            'prefix' => 'upload',
        ],

        'images' => [
            'server' => 'static',
            'prefix' => 'img',
        ],

        'videos' => [
            'server' => 's3',
        ],
    ],
];

Note
Please note that this configuration is only available when used with the Spiral Framework.

Manual Configuration (Outside The Framework)

This way of using the component is required only if it is installed separately, outside the framework.

First you need to create a storage instance where all your buckets will be stored. After that, you can add and get an arbitrary bucket from it by the desired name.

php
$storage = new \Spiral\Storage\Storage();

$storage->add('example', \Spiral\Storage\Bucket::fromAdapter(
    new \League\Flysystem\Local\LocalFilesystemAdapter(__DIR__ . '/path/to/directory')
));

$file = $storage->bucket('example')
    ->write('file.txt', 'content');

As you may have noticed, you can use the existing flysystem adapters to create a bucket. Just install the one you want and add it to the store using the Bucket::fromAdapter() method.

Local Server

The local server, as the name implies, is located in the local file system (in the same place where the executable code of your application is located).

You have already seen an example of local server settings earlier, however, to simplify them, some optional sections have been specially removed. Let's now take a look at the complete configuration of this type of server, leaving all the possible configuration sections.

Click to show example of configuration.
php
app/config/storage.php
return [
    'servers' => [
        'profiles' => [
            //
            // Server type name. For a local server, this value must be
            // a string value "local".
            //
            'adapter' => 'local',

            //
            // The required path to the local directory where your files will
            // be stored.
            //
            'directory'  => '/app/storage/user-profiles',

            //
            // Visibility mapping. Here you can set the default visibility for
            // files and the permissions for files and directories corresponding
            // to a certain type of visibility.
            //
            // The visibility value can only be "private" or "public".
            //
            'visibility' => [
                'public'  => ['file' => 0644, 'dir' => 0755],
                'private' => ['file' => 0600, 'dir' => 0700],

                'default' => 'public',
            ],
        ],
    ],

    'buckets' => [
        'bucket' => [
            //
            // Relation to an existing local server. Note that all further
            // bucket options are applicable only for this (i.e. profiles) server
            // type.
            //
            'server' => 'profiles',

            //
            // For buckets that use local servers, you can add a directory
            // prefix. In this case, the real physical path to the file will
            // look like: "/app/storage/user-profiles/avatars", where
            // the "/example/directory" string is the physical directory
            // specified in the server, and "avatars" - prefix for file
            // directories specified in the bucket.
            //
            'prefix' => 'avatars',
        ]
    ]
];

The RoadRunner plugin offers the Fileserver plugin, which facilitates the serving of files from various local storages through the utilization of URL prefixes. This feature enables fine-grained control over the visibility and access of specific files and directories.

For instance, you may map the URL prefix http://127.0.0.1:10101/avatars to the /app/storage/user-profiles/avatars directory to provide public access to static assets.

Here is an example of the configuration for the Fileserver plugin:

yaml
.rr.yaml
fileserver:
  address: 127.0.0.1:10101
  calculate_etag: true
  weak: false
  stream_request_body: true
  serve:
    - prefix: "/avatars"
      root: "/app/storage/user-profiles/avatars"

S3 Server

This type of server is designed to interact with an external distributed file system using the S3 protocol. S3 is the main protocol for communicating with Amazon servers. In addition to Amazon S3 itself, there are free alternatives that you can install and use on your own server, for example Minio Server.

To set up this type of server, you will need an existing bucket and personal authentication data. In addition, for completeness, the example below will include parameters that are optional and have default values.

Please note that in order to interact with this type of servers, you must have one of the two available packages installed (either). You must install the league/flysystem-aws-s3-v3 or league/flysystem-async-aws-s3 package using the Composer.

composer require league/flysystem-aws-s3-v3 ^2.0
// OR
composer require league/flysystem-async-aws-s3 ^2.0

During configuration, you should specify which of the packages you will use in the server's "adapter" section. The "s3" value corresponds to the league/flysystem-aws-s3-v3 package, while the "s3-async" value corresponds to the league/flysystem-async-aws-s3 package.

        ]
    ]
];

Custom Server

In some cases, standard adapters may not be enough and in this case you may need to specify your own. You can also use your config file to configure your custom adapter.

In this case, the adapter section must refer to the League\Flysystem\FilesystemAdapter implementation, and the "options" section will contain an array of arguments passed to the constructor of this adapter.

Click to show example of configuration.
php
app/config/storage.php
return [
    'servers' => [
        'custom' => [
            //
            // Server type name that contains class name of adapter.
            //
            'adapter' => \Custom\FlysystemAdapter::Class,

            //
            // Adapter's constructor arguments.
            //
            'options' => [
                // ...
            ]
        ],
    ],

    'buckets' => [
        'bucket' => [
            //
            // Relation to custom server.
            //
            'server' => 'custom'
        ]
    ]
];

Usage

Finally, after we have familiarized ourselves with what types of servers the component supports, we can move on to using them.

The storage architecture assumes 3 different levels of access to identical operations: Storage, Bucket and File. At each of these levels, you can operate on files, but the differences are in how much data you have to transfer to a particular method. At the highest "Storage" level you have to pass information about the bucket and the file. At the "Bucket" level you pass info only about the file. Finally, at the "File" level you will not have to pass any additional information.

In practice, it will look like this. Let's try to create a file example.txt in 3 different ways inside some controller of our application.

php
use Spiral\Storage\StorageInterface;

class UploadController
{
    public function createFile(StorageInterface $storage): array
    {
        $result = [];
        
        // 1. Storage level
        $result[] = $storage->create('bucket://example.txt');

        // 2. Bucket level
        $result[] = $storage->bucket('bucket')
            ->create('example.txt');

        // 3. File level
        $result[] = $storage->bucket('bucket')
            ->file('example.txt')
            ->create();

        return $result;
    }
}

The differences between the methods are as follows:

  • When working with a storage, you should pass a file name in the URI-like format [BUCKET_NAME]://[FILE_NAME]. In all methods of working with a storage, this is the first string argument.

  • In all methods of working with a bucket, this is a file name in an arbitrary format. Please also note that the leading slash does not affect the file location in any way and the names file.txt and /file.txt will be completely identical.

  • In all methods of working with a specific file, no additional arguments are required.

Each of the methods has both its advantages and disadvantages. Just use what you like best.

Since in the example above we are using a controller, then at the same time we will use an alternative dependency, which is suitable in cases of simple file saving, when many implementations of buckets are not required.

In such cases as below, the bucket used in the system by default will be selected. You can define the bucket in the 'default' section of your configuration.

php
use Spiral\Storage\BucketInterface;
use Psr\Http\Message\ServerRequestInterface;

class UploadingController
{
    public function upload(ServerRequestInterface $request, BucketInterface $bucket): string
    {
        /** @var \Psr\Http\Message\UploadedFileInterface $file */
        foreach ($request->getUploadedFiles() as $i => $file) {
            $bucket->write("file-{$i}.txt", $file->getStream());
        }

        return \count($request->getUploadedFiles()) . ' files uploaded';
    }
}

From each of the levels, you can refer to the child.

From The Storage:

  • $storage->bucket('[bucket-name]'): BucketInterface
  • $storage->file('[bucket-name]://[file-name]'): FileInterface

From The Bucket:

  • $bucket->file('[file-name]'): FileInterface

After we have got to know the options to use the same methods at different levels of the store, we can go on to describe the available possibilities. Let's start!

Create And Write

If you want to create a file, you can use one of the two available methods: create() or write(). The first creates an empty file where it is not created, and the second one allows you to additionally write arbitrary string or resource stream content there.

For example, the code that creates a file might look like this.

php
// Creating file from bucket
$file = $bucket->create('file.txt');

// Creating file from bucket with string content
$file = $bucket->write('file.txt', 'message');

// Creating file from bucket with resource stream content
$file = $bucket->write('file.txt', fopen(__DIR__ . '/local/file.txt', 'rb+'));

Copy And Move

To copy files, use the copy() method, which contains one required argument with the name of a new file and one optional - the bucket where the file should be copied. If the second argument is not specified, the compilation bucket will be identical to the original one.

The move() method is completely similar to using the copy() method, but instead of copying it moves the file.

php
$backup = $firstBucket->copy('from.txt', 'backup.txt');

$moved  = $firstBucket->move('backup.txt', 'to.txt', $secondBucket);

Please note that when a file is moved (or copied) from a bucket with private permissions to a distribution with public permissions, the visibility of the file will also change to the one corresponding to this bucket.

Delete

To delete a file, just use the delete() method. This method accepts an optional boolean argument which means deleting an empty directory where the file was located.

php
$bucket->delete('file.txt');

Reading Content

There are two ways to read the contents of an existing file: Using the getContents() and getStream() methods. The first one returns the string content of the file, and the second resource is a stream for working with streaming data.

php
$string = $bucket->getContents('text.txt');

$resource = $bucket->getStream('music.mp3');

Existence Check

To check the existence of a file, use the exists() method, which returns a boolean value true if the file exists in the bucket, or false if it does not exist.

php
$isExists = $bucket->exists('file.txt');

File Size

To get information about the size of a file, use the getSize() method, which returns the size of an existing file in bytes.

php
$bytes = $bucket->getSize('file.txt');

Last Modification Time

To retrieve information about the date of the last modification of a file, use the getLastModified() method, which returns the time in UNIX timestamp format.

php
$timestamp = $bucket->getLastModified('file.txt');

Mime Type

To get the file mime type, use the getMimeType() method, which returns a string mime type representation of the file.

php
$mime = $bucket->getMimeType('file.txt');

Visibility

In addition to such characteristics as file existence, there is also file visibility. You can get information about the visibility of a file using the getVisibility() method, and update the visibility using the setVisibility() method.

These methods operate on constants that have been defined in the Spiral\Storage\Visibility enum-like interface. So, the sample code with file visibility control will look like the following.

php
$visibility = $bucket->getVisibility('file.txt');

// If file is "private" then publish it
if ($visibility === Visibility::VISIBILITY_PRIVATE) {
    $bucket->setVisibility('file.txt', Visibility::VISIBILITY_PUBLIC);
}

Note
In case of using a bucket located on Windows OS, this functionality may not work.

URI Publishing

The storage component initially provides only operations for working with files on arbitrary file systems. However, some systems, in addition to storage, allow HTTP to organize an access point to such files to receive their contents through a browser.

The storage component allows you to add an arbitrary URI resolver of public addresses for these files using the distribution component.

To configure a resolver, you should familiarize yourself with the configuration of this component. After that, for a specific bucket, simply add a section containing a link to a specific distribution resolver.

Each bucket is able to specify the distribution.

php
return [
    // ...
    'buckets' => [
        'uploads' => [
            'server' => '...',

            //
            // + Add relation to existing distribution.
            //
            'distribution' => 'NAME_OF_DISTRIBUTION'
        ],
    ],
];

To use this URI resolver, simply call the toUri() method. In case you need any other distribution, you can specify it explicitly in the toUriFrom(...)method.

Note
Unlike other methods, this one can only be called on a specific file.

php
use Spiral\Storage\BucketInterface;
use Spiral\Distribution\UriResolverInterface;

class UriController
{
    // Using default URI resolver
    public function getUri(BucketInterface $bucket): string
    {
        return (string)$bucket
            ->file('picture.jpg')
            ->toUri();
    }

    // Using another URI resolver
    public function getAnotherUri(BucketInterface $bucket, UriResolverInterface $resolver): string
    {
        return (string)$bucket
            ->file('picture.jpg')
            ->toUriFrom($resolver);
    }
}

Some generators may accept additional options. Such arguments can be passed to the toUri([...$arguments]) or toUriFrom($resolver, [...$arguments]) methods. For example, if you create a link to the CloudFront, you can additionally specify the expiration time of this link.

You can read more about possible additional arguments on the corresponding page of the distribution section.

php
$uri = $file->toUri(new \DateInterval('PT30S'));
// And
$uri = $file->toUriFrom($resolver, new \DateInterval('PT30S'));

Distribution

The spiral/distribution component is responsible for providing public HTTP links on arbitrary resources. In most cases, this will be the same address as the address of the site itself, however, in some cases, resources may be located on external servers such as Amazon CloudFront or some other CDN. In these cases, generating a public link to the resource needs to use a specific API of the provider, or write one's own code for the used CDN. The component makes this interaction easier and provides a number of built-in drivers for generating URIs to external suppliers.

Installation

Use Composer to install the component:

composer require spiral/distribution

To enable the component, you just need to add the Spiral\Distribution\Bootloader\DistributionBootloader class to the bootloader list:

php
app/src/Application/Kernel.php
public function defineBootloaders(): array
{
    return [
        // ...
        \Spiral\Distribution\Bootloader\DistributionBootloader::class,
        // ...
    ];
}

Read more about bootloaders in the Framework — Bootloaders section.

Configuration

A distribution configuration file, by default, is located at app/config/distribution.php.

php
app/config/distribution.php
<?php

return [

    /**
     * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     *  Default Distribution Resolver Name
     * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     *
     * Here you can specify which of the resolvers you want to use in the
     * default for all work with URI generation. Of course, you can use
     * multiple resolvers at the same time using the distribution library.
     *
     */

    'default' => env('DISTRIBUTION_RESOLVER', 'local'),

    /**
     * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     *  Distribution Resolvers
     * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     *
     * Here is each of the resolvers configured for your application.
     * Of course, the examples of customizing each available distribution supported
     * by Spiral are shown below to simplify development.
     *
     */

    'resolvers' => [
        'local' => [
            'type' => 'static',
            'uri'  => env('APP_URL', 'http://localhost')
        ],

        'cloudfront' => [
            'type' => 'cloudfront',
            'key' => env('AWS_CF_KEY'),
            'domain' => env('AWS_CF_KEY'),
            'private' => env('AWS_CF_PRIVATE_KEY'),
        ],

        's3' => [
            'type' => 's3',
            'region' => env('S3_REGION'),
            'bucket' => env('S3_BUCKET'),
            'key' => env('S3_KEY'),
            'secret' => env('S3_SECRET'),
        ],
    ],

];

Warning
The provided configuration example is specific to the Spiral Framework and would not be applicable outside of that context. The configuration options and structure will vary depending on the specific framework or system being used.

Manual Configuration (Outside The Framework)

This way of using the component is required only if it is installed separately, outside the framework.

First you need to create a manager instance where all your uri resolvers will be stored. After that, you can add and get arbitrary resolvers from it by the desired name.

php
$manager = new \Spiral\Distribution\Manager();

$manager->add('resolver-name', new CustomResolver());

$manager->resolver('resolver-name'); // object(CustomResolver)

After that, you can add there either your own managers, or provided by the component, such as for example "static".

php
use Nyholm\Psr7\Uri;
use Spiral\Distribution\Manager;
use Spiral\Distribution\Resolver\StaticResolver;

$manager = new Manager();
$manager->add('local', new StaticResolver(new Uri('https://static.example.com')));

Usage

Once you've configured your component, you can start using it.

If you are using a Spiral application, the manager is already configured. You can get it from the container or via dependency injection.

php
use Spiral\Distribution\DistributionInterface;

class FilesController
{
    public function showImage(DistributionInterface $dist): string
    {
        $resolver = $dist->resolver('local');

        return (string)$resolver->resolve('example/image.jpg');
    }
}

If you need a default resolver defined in the "default" configuration section, you do not need to get the entire manager instance. You can get the resolver you want from the container right away.

php
use Spiral\Distribution\UriResolverInterface;

class FilesController
{
    public function showImage(UriResolverInterface $resolver): string
    {
        return (string)$resolver->resolve('example/image.jpg');
    }
}

You may have noticed that after getting the resolver in the examples above, the resolve() method is used with a relative path to the file. It takes a string value as an argument and returns the implementation of the PSR-7 Psr\Http\Message\UriInterface.

php
$uri = $resolver->resolve('path/to/file.txt');
//
// Expected:
//  object(Psr\Http\Message\UriInterface)
//

Note
Some resolvers support additional options when getting a link, for example: $cloudfront->resolve('path/to/file.txt', expiration: new \DateInterval('PT60S'));

Static URI Resolver

This type of a resolver generates an address to a resource simply by adding the passed file link to the end of the URI specified in the resolver configuration.

To configure this type of resolver, you only need to specify two required fields.

php
app/config/distribution.php
return [
    // ...
    'resolvers' => [
        // ...
        'local' => [
            //
            // Required key of resolver type.
            // For static resolver, it must contain the "static" string value.
            //
            'type' => 'static',

            //
            // Required key of static server url.
            //
            'uri'  => env('APP_URL', 'http://localhost')
        ],
    ]
];

Unlike a similar method used to generate an address for a page in the url generator router component, links can be arbitrary and configured on a separate server designed to serve static content.

In this way, if you pass an arbitrary file string to the resolve() method, you will receive a physical http link to this file. If the base uri is defined as "http://localhost", the result will be as follows:

php
/** @var \Spiral\Distribution\Resolver\StaticResolver $resolver */
$resolver = $manager->resolver('local');

echo $resolver->resolve('path/to/file.txt');
//
// Expected:
//  string(33) "http://localhost/path/to/file.txt"
//

CloudFront URI Resolver

CloudFront is a popular static distribution service used in conjunction with Amazon services. To use it, you must install the aws/aws-sdk-php package using the Composer.

composer require aws/aws-sdk-php ^3.0

After registering and creating your statics server in the AWS services, you will receive the parameters for setting. In addition, you will need a "private key file" and "access key id", which you can find on the "CloudFront key pairs" tab on "Security Credentials" page.

To configure this resolver, simply specify the connection parameters in the configuration sections:

php
app/config/distribution.php
return [
    // ...
    'resolvers' => [
        // ...
        'cloudfront' => [
            //
            // Required key of resolver type.
            // For CloudFront, it must contain the "cloudfront" string value.
            //
            'type' => 'cloudfront',

            //
            // Required key of CloudFront access key id.
            // This must contain string value like "AAAABBBBCCCCDDDDEEEE".
            //
            // Identifier can be found on your personal "security credentials" page here:
            //  - https://console.aws.amazon.com/iam/home#/security_credentials
            //
            'key' => env('AWS_CF_KEY'),
            
            //
            // Required key of CloudFront private key.
            // This must be a private key string value or a path to a private key file.
            //
            // Identifier can be also found on "Security Credentials" page here:
            //  - https://console.aws.amazon.com/iam/home#/security_credentials
            //
            // Please note that you can download the private key file only
            // during its generation!
            //
            'private' => env('AWS_CF_PRIVATE_KEY'),

            //
            // Required key of CloudFront domain name.
            // This must contain string value like "example.cloudfront.net".
            //
            // Domain can be found on "CloudFront Distributions" page here:
            //  - https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/home
            //
            'domain' => env('AWS_CF_DOMAIN'),
            
            //
            // Optional key of CloudFront file prefixes.
            // This must contain string like "path/to/directory". In this case,
            // this prefix will be added for each file when generating url.
            //
            'prefix' => env('AWS_CF_PREFIX'),
        ],
    ]
];

If you decide to create a resolver yourself, you can use the same settings passed to the constructor of the resolver used to work with the CloudFront service.

php
//
// The use of PHP 8 named arguments in the constructor is for clarity
//
$cloudfront = new \Spiral\Distribution\Resolver\CloudFrontResolver(
    keyPairId: 'AAAABBBBCCCCDDDDEEEE',
    privateKey: \file_get_contents(__DIR__ . '/path/to/key.pem'),
    domain: 'example.cloudfront.net',
    prefix: 'path/to/files'
);

$url = $cloudfront->resolve(...);

The CloudFront resolver receives as the first argument of the resolve() method a link to a file for which a public address should be generated and, as the second, optional, the lifetime (expiration) of this link.

The expiration time can be specified in several formats. It can be:

Below are examples of each of the valid formats:

php
$file = 'path/to/file.txt';

// DateInterval object
$url = $cloudfront->resolve($file, new DateInterval('PT30S'));

// Instance of DateTimeInterface
$url = $cloudfront->resolve($file, new DateTime('+30 sec'));

// Duration in string format
$url = $cloudfront->resolve($file, 'PT30S');

// Duration in int format
$url = $cloudfront->resolve($file, 30);

In case of any special circumstances, you can replace the current time generator and expiration parser. In addition, you can also set a default value for all generated links within a given resolver.

php
$cloudfront = (new \Spiral\Distribution\Resolver\CloudFrontResolver(...))
    //
    // With custom "current time" generator.
    //
    // The time generator must be an implementation of the
    // \Spiral\Distribution\Internal\DateTimeFactoryInterface interface.
    //
    ->withDateTimeFactory(new CustomCurrentDateGenerator())

    //
    // With custom "expiration time" parser.
    //
    // The "expiration time" format parser must be an implementation of the
    // \Spiral\Distribution\Internal\DateTimeIntervalFactoryInterface interface.
    //
    ->withDateTimeIntervalFactory(new CustomExpirationParser())

    //
    // With default "expiration time" value.
    //
    // The value must be correct for the time specified in the
    // parser of given URI resolver.
    //
    ->withExpirationDate('PT30S');

S3 URI Resolver

If, for some reason, you cannot use the CloudFront resolver (for example, in the case of using a Minio Server), you can use the resolver that generates links to the S3 server. To use it, you must also install the aws/aws-sdk-php package using the Composer.

composer require aws/aws-sdk-php ^3.0

To use it with AWS S3, you need account credentials, and a working bucket which you can create on "Amazon S3" page. After creating the bucket, you will need to fill in the following configuration parameters.

php
app/config/distribution.php
return [
    // ...
    'resolvers' => [
        // ...
        's3' => [
            //
            // Required key of resolver type.
            // For S3, it must contain the "s3" string value.
            //
            'type' => 's3',

            //
            // Required string key of S3 region like "eu-north-1".
            //
            // Region can be found on "Amazon S3" page here:
            //  - https://s3.console.aws.amazon.com/s3/home
            //
            'region' => env('S3_REGION'),

            //
            // Optional key of S3 API version.
            //
            'version' => env('S3_VERSION', 'latest'),

            //
            // Required key of S3 bucket.
            //
            // Bucket name can be found on "Amazon S3" page here:
            //  - https://s3.console.aws.amazon.com/s3/home
            //
            'bucket' => env('S3_BUCKET'),

            //
            // Required key of S3 credentials key like "AAAABBBBCCCCDDDDEEEE".
            //
            // Credentials key can be found on "Security Credentials" page here:
            //  - https://console.aws.amazon.com/iam/home#/security_credentials
            //
            'key' => env('S3_KEY'),

            //
            // Required key of S3 credentials private key.
            // This must be a private key string value or a path to a private key file.
            //
            // Identifier can be also found on "Security Credentials" page here:
            //  - https://console.aws.amazon.com/iam/home#/security_credentials
            //
            'secret' => env('S3_SECRET'),

            //
            // Optional key of S3 credentials token.
            //
            'token' => env('S3_TOKEN', null),

            //
            // Optional key of S3 credentials expiration time.
            //
            'expires' => env('S3_EXPIRES', null),

            //
            // Optional key of S3 API endpoint URI.
            //
            'endpoint' => env('S3_ENDPOINT', null),
            
            //
            // Optional key of S3 API file prefixes.
            // This must contain string like "path/to/directory".
            //
            // In this case, this prefix will be added for each file when
            // generating url.
            //
            'prefix' => env('S3_PREFIX'),

            //
            // Optional additional S3 options.
            // For example, option "use_path_style_endpoint" is required to work
            // with a Minio S3 Server.
            //
            // Note: This "options" section is available since framework >= 2.8.6
            //
            'options' => [
                'use_path_style_endpoint' => true,
            ]
        ],
    ]
];

If you decide to create a resolver yourself, you can use the same settings passed to the constructor of the resolver used to work with the S3 service.

php
//
// The use of PHP 8 named arguments in the constructor is for clarity
//
$s3 = new \Spiral\Distribution\Resolver\S3SignedResolver(
    client: new \Aws\S3\S3Client([
        'version' => 'latest',
        'region'  => 'eu-north-1',
        'credentials' => new \Aws\Credentials\Credentials(
            key: 'key',
            secret: file_get_contents(__DIR__ . '/path/to/secret.pem')
        )
    ]),
    bucket: 'bucket-name',
    prefix: 'path/to/files'
);

$url = $s3->resolve(...);

After registering a resolver, you will be able to create a URI to a file using the resolve() method. By analogy with the CloudFront implementation, you can also pass a second expiration argument to this method, which means the lifetime of the generated URI.

php
$url = $s3->resolve($file, new DateTime('+30 sec'));

All similar methods for specifying the global URI expiration, the "current time" generator, and the "expiration time" parsers are also available.

Custom URI Resolver

In some cases, you may find tasks for generating URI's that do not fit the existing implementations of resolvers. In this case, you can register your own resolver class in the config. To pass additional arguments to the constructor of this resolver, simply specify the options section in the configuration file.

php
app/config/distribution.php
return [
    // ...
    'resolvers' => [
        // ...
        'custom' => [
            //
            // Required key of resolver class. This is class must implement
            // \Spiral\Distribution\UriResolverInterface interface.
            //
            'type' => \Example\CustomResolver::class,

            //
            // Optional "options" array section.
            //
            'options' => [
                // list of constructor arguments...
            ],
        ],
    ]
];

In some cases, this registration method may not work for you. If any dependencies from the container are required in the parameters of the constructor, you should use the bootloader.
