### Using S3 or Cloud Storage

Source: https://leafphp.dev/docs/utils/fs

Integrate with S3-compatible cloud storage services. Configure your credentials in `.env` and install the S3 addon. Use `withBucket()` to specify cloud storage destinations.

```APIDOC
## Using s3 or other cloud storage services 

Leaf FS now supports using Amazon s3 and other cloud storage services that support the S3 protocol. This allows you to switch from local storage to cloud storage without changing any code. To get started, you need to configure your cloud storage settings in the `.env` file.

### Environment Configuration
```env
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=1234567890abcdef1234
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=weur
AWS_BUCKET=bucket-name
AWS_URL=https://cdn.leafphp.dev
AWS_USE_PATH_STYLE_ENDPOINT=false
AWS_ENDPOINT=https://something.r2.cloudflarestorage.com
```

### Installation

Install the S3 addon using the Leaf CLI or Composer:

#### Leaf CLI
```bash
leaf install s3
```

#### Composer
```bash
composer require leafs/s3
```

### Usage

Now just add `withBucket()` as the destination when creating or uploading files to use the cloud storage.

```php
$displayUrl = request()->upload(
    'fileInRequest',
    'local/path', 
    withBucket('path/in/bucket'), 
)['url'] ?? null;

$videoUrl = storage()->createFile(
    withBucket("imports/$request/video.mp4"),
    $this->fetchRemoteVideo($post['videoUrl']),
    [
        'rename' => true,
        'recursive' => true,
    ]
);
```

We are working on a 100% interchangeable API for local and cloud storage, so you can use `withBucket()` anywhere you would normally use a local path, however, some methods may not be supported yet. We would love to hear your feedback on this feature.
