This is a package to make uploading and attaching files to an eloquent model easy. It includes a ServiceProvider to publish the migrations.

When deleting a model with files attached, the files will automatically also be deleted., _(*2)

Installation

Require this package with composer:, _(*3)

composer require brysem/eloquent-files

After updating composer, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in config/app.php., _(*4)

Bryse\Eloquent\Files\FilesServiceProvider::class,

Copy the package migrations to your local migrations folder with the publish command:, _(*5)

Add the HasFiles trait to the eloquent models you would like to save files to., _(*6)

use Bryse\Eloquent\Files\Traits\HasFiles;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use HasFiles;
}

$videos = $user->files()->videos()->get();

// You can go crazy and grab all text files created three days ago.
$files = $user->files()->where('created_at', '<=', Carbon\Carbon::now()->subDays(3))->where('type', 'like', 'text/%')->get();

Easily add a profile image for users., _(*9)

public function uploadProfileImage(Request $request, User $user)
{
    // Remove all previous images.
