A new version of the medialibrary package

Original – by Freek Van der Herten – 1 minute read

When starting out with Laravel I made a medialibrary to associate uploaded files with models. In our custom made cms we use the medialibrary to for example associate articles with images.

In short the medialibrary could:

  • associate files with models
  • generate thumbnails and other derived images from associated files. The generation of these files (which can be queued) is done using Glide
  • easily generate url's to the associated files
Because of the way it was architectured some functionality was hard to add. So I decided to rewrite the whole thing to make it more flexible. I just tagged the new version as 2.0.0. This new version gains some cool functionality: Head over to GitHub to read the installation instructions and examples on how to use the package.

Stay up to date with all things Laravel, PHP, and JavaScript.

You can follow me on these platforms:

On all these platforms, regularly share programming tips, and what I myself have learned in ongoing projects.

Every month I send out a newsletter containing lots of interesting stuff for the modern PHP developer.

Expect quick tips & tricks, interesting tutorials, opinions and packages. Because I work with Laravel every day there is an emphasis on that framework.

Rest assured that I will only use your email address to send you the newsletter and will not use it for any other purposes.
