Duplicated file on binding

[Dcuevac93]

Hi team!. I'm using Laravel 5.4, i installed laravel-attachments Version 0.0.16 as suggested in documentation.

I'm storing a file usign Laravel Storage::put() method, then getting the url with Storage::url() and then passing this path to the $model->attach($path, $options) method.

Basically my problem is that once i execute $model->attach($path, $options), a new file is created in the "attachments" folder.

For this project i'm using Amazon s3 Storage and we're not about upgrading Laravel so far.

I really hope you could tell me how could i fix this or tell me what i am doing wrong.

Thanks!

HI,

I don't get any file stored locally on the server when using S3 storage like this

 $model->attach($someFile, [
            'disk' => 's3',
]);

where s3 is the name of a disk in config/filesystems.php:

       's3' => [
            'driver' => 's3',
            'key' => env('AWS_KEY'),
            'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET'),
            'region' => env('AWS_REGION'),
            'bucket' => env('AWS_BUCKET'),
        ],

Hi again!

Excuse me, I'm not sure what kind of data do you store on $someFile var when you're using S3 storage.

I only can get the URL from S3 after i upload a file.

I would love if i just could attach a image from URL.

Thanks!

The code :

 $model->attach($someFile, [
            'disk' => 's3',
]);

is used to upload a file to S3 : $someFile is a local path to a file or an instance of UploadedFile
