README

Cache any image from any source locally in your Laravel app

Installation

  1. Install using Composer
composer require indent/imgcache --prefer-dist
  1. Create symbolic link between public/ directory and storage/imgcache/
php artisan imgcache:link
  1. Add your Cloudinary cloud name in config/services.php. You can find your cloud name in the Cloudinary dashboard.
return [
    'imgcache' => [
        'cloudinary' => [
            'cloud_name' => env('CLOUDINARY_CLOUD_NAME', '<Your cloud name>'),
        ],
    ],
];

Usage

Use Imgcache by calling the fascade or use the global helper.

Fascade

class ProductController
{
    public function show()
    {
        $img = Imgcache::make('https://picsum.photos/id/1/100/100')->get();

        return view('product.show', [
            'img' => $img,
        ]);
    }
}

Helper

The global helper is useful when rendering an image in HTML or Blade views

{{-- When called in a Blade view Imgcache will be stringified --}}
<img src="{{ imgcache($imageUrl) }} alt="...">

{{-- If you want to be explicit, you can call `get()` --}}
<img src="{{ imgcache($imageUrl)->get() }} alt="...">

Inline hashes

You can generate very small image hashes to load inline in your Blade templates, then lazy load the actual image later.

<img src="{{ imgcache($imageUrl)->width(150)->blur(2000)->format('webp')->base64() }} alt="...">
