How do I integrate CloudFront URLs into Laravel routes


To integrate AWS CloudFront URLs into Laravel routes, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Configure CloudFront URLs in Laravel

1. Update the `config/filesystems.php` File:
- In the `config/filesystems.php` file, update the `s3` disk to use the CloudFront URL:

php
     's3' => [
         'driver' => 's3',
         'key' => env('AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'),
         'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
         'region' => env('AWS_DEFAULT_REGION'),
         'bucket' => env('AWS_BUCKET'),
         'url' => env('AWS_CLOUDFRONT_URL'),
         'endpoint' => env('AWS_ENDPOINT'),
         'use_path_style_endpoint' => env('AWS_USE_PATH_STYLE_ENDPOINT', false),
     ],
     

Step 2: Use CloudFront URLs in Laravel Routes

2. Define Routes:
- In your `routes/web.php` file, define routes that use the CloudFront URLs:

php
     Route::get('/image', function () {
         $url = Storage::url('path/to/image.jpg');
         return redirect($url);
     });
     

Example Code

Here is an example of how to use CloudFront URLs in Laravel routes:

php
// Define the route
Route::get('/image', function () {
    $url = Storage::url('path/to/image.jpg');
    return redirect($url);
});

Troubleshooting

- Error Handling:
- Ensure that the AWS S3 adapter is correctly installed and configured.
- Verify that the environment variables are correctly set in the `.env` file.

By following these steps, you can integrate AWS CloudFront URLs into Laravel routes, ensuring that your users' files are served securely and efficiently.
