Ghost v3 Google Cloud Storage Adapter

This custom storage adapter for Ghost v3 allows you to send your publication's images to Google Cloud Storage (in short, GCS).

Read more about Ghost's storage adapters in the official documentation.

Installation

cd [your/ghost/root/directory]

# Create the GCS storage adapter directory
mkdir -p content/adapters/storage/gcs

# No need for --save as we will move the content to a different folder
npm install ghost-v3-google-cloud-storage

# Move the GCS storage adapter to the correct location so Ghost can find it
mv node_modules/ghost-v3-google-cloud-storage/* content/adapters/storage/gcs/

Note: We named the storage adapter gcs; it's simpler to work with.
