Laravel 5.4+ file attachment helpers

This package allows to quickly links files to models.

Installation

You can install this package via composer :

composer require bnbwebexpertise/laravel-attachments

Add the service provider to your configuration :

'providers' => [
        // ...

        Bnb\Laravel\Attachments\AttachmentsServiceProvider::class,

        // ...
],

Configuration

You can customize this package behavior by publishing the configuration file :

php artisan vendor:publish --provider='Bnb\Laravel\Attachments\AttachmentsServiceProvider'

Add attachments to a model class

Add the HasAttachment trait to your model class :

<?php

namespace App;

use Bnb\Laravel\Attachments\HasAttachment;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Notifiable, HasAttachment;

    // ...
}

Then use it to bind a file to an instance :

$user = App\User::create([
    'name' => 'name',
    'email' => '[email protected]',
    'password' => 'password',
]);

// Bind a local file
$attachment = $user->attach('local/path/to/file.txt');

// Bind an uploaded file
$attachment = $user->attach(\Request::file('uploaded_file'));

// Bind an uploaded file with options
$attachment = $user->attach(\Request::file('uploaded_file'), [
    'disk' => 's3',
    'title' => \Request::input('attachment_title'),
    'description' => \Request::input('attachment_description'),
    'key' => \Request::input('attachment_key'),
]);

Retrieve model's attachments

$user = App\User::first();

$allAttachments = $user->attachments()->get();

$attachmentByKey = $user->attachment('myKey');

// Attachment public URL
$publicUrl = $attachmentByKey->url;

Delete an attachment

Calling the delete() method on an attachment model instance will delete the database row and the file. The deletion of the file can be disabled by setting the behaviors.cascade_delete to false in the configuration.

Not that calling delete() on a query() like statement will not cascade to the filesystem because it will not call the delete() method of the Attachment model class.

$user = App\User::first();
$attachmentByKey = $user->attachment('myKey');
$attachmentByKey->delete(); // Will also delete the file on the storage by default

Hooking the file output

The Bnb\Laravel\Attachments\Attachment model class provides an outputting event that you can observe.

In the application service provider you could write for example :

<?php
use Bnb\Laravel\Attachments\Attachment;

class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    // ...

    public function boot() {

        // ...

        Attachment::outputting(function ($attachment) {
            /** @var Attachment $attachment */

            // Get the related model
            $model = $attachment->model;

            if (empty($model)) {
                // Deny output for attachments not linked to a model

                return false;
            }

            if ($model instanceof \App\User) {
                // Check if current user is granted and owner

                $user = \Auth::user();

                return $user && $user->can('download-file') && $user->id == $model->id;
            }
        });

        // ...
    }


    // ...
}

Dropzone

Upload

This package provides a server endpoint for Dropzone.js or equivalent via the attachments.dropzone route alias.

It returns the attachment uuid along other fields as a JSON response. This value can be sent back later to the server to bind it to a model instance (deferred saving).

The form :

<form action="{{ route('attachments.dropzone')  }}" class="dropzone" id="my-dropzone">
    {{ csrf_field() }}
</form>

The response :

{
  "title": "b39ffd84524b",
  "filename": "readme.md",
  "filesize": 2906,
  "filetype": "text\/html",
  "uuid": "f5a8eec2-d860-4e53-8451-b39ffd84524b",
  "key": "58ac52e90db938.72105394",
  "url": "http:\/\/laravel.dev:8888\/attachments\/f5a8eec2-d860-4e53-8451-b39ffd84524b\/readme.md"
}

Send it back later :

<form action="/upload" method="post">
    {{ csrf_field() }}
    <input type="hidden" name="attachment_id" id="attachment_id">
    <button type="submit">Save</button>
</form>

<!-- Where attachment_id is populated on success -->

<script>
    Dropzone.options.myDropzone = {
        init: function () {
            this.on("success", function (file, response) {
                document.getElementById('attachment_id').value = response.uuid;
            });
        }
    };
</script>

Bind the value later :

<?php

Route::post('/upload', function () {
    $model = App\User::first();

    Bnb\Laravel\Attachments\Attachment::attach(Request::input('attachment_id'), $model);

    return redirect('/dropzone');
});

Delete

The route attachments.dropzone.delete can be called via HTTP DELETE. The attachment ID must be provided as parameter.

The delete action provided by this route only works for pending attachement (not bound to a model).

To prevent deletion of other users file, the current CSRF token is saved when uploading via the dropzone endpoint and it must be the same when calling the dropzone delete endpoint. This behavior can be deactivated via the configuration or env key (see config/attachments.php).

Usage example :

<script>
var MyDropzone = {
    url: "{{ route('attachments.dropzone.delete', ['id' => ':id']) }}"
    // ...
    deletedfile: function (file) {
        axios.delete(this.url.replace(/:id/, file.id)).then(function () {
            //...
        });
    }
    //...
}
</script>

Events

Two event are fired by the dropzone endpoints controller :

  • attachments.dropzone.uploading with the $request : Request as parameter
  • attachments.dropzone.deleting with the $request : Request and the $file : Attachement as parameters

If one of the listeners returns false, the action is aborted.

public function boot()
{
    Event::listen('attachments.dropzone.uploading', function ($request) {
        return $this->isAllowedToUploadFile($request);
    });

    Event::listen('attachments.dropzone.deleting', function ($request, $file) {
        return $this->canDeletePendingFile($request, $file);
    });
}

Cleanup commands

A command is provided to cleanup the attachments not bound to a model (when model_type and model_id are null).

php artisan attachment:cleanup

The -s (or --since=[timeInMinutes]) option can be set to specify another time limit in minutes : only unbound files older than the specified age will be deleted. This value is set to 1440 by default.
