Save image using Laravel's Storage facade

[iDGE90]

At this point there is no way to opt out of the default image saving pattern which uses php's copy function. It would be a nice addition to be able to manually save the processed image, for ex:

Image::load($image)
    ->fit(Manipulations::FIT_CROP, 150, 150)
    ->format(Manipulations::FORMAT_JPG)
    ->manualSave(function($imageContent) {
        Storage::disk('public')->put('some/path/file.jpg', $imageContent);
    });

I'm guessing additional issue would be image optimization which is executed after image is saved.

I see this as out of scope for this package. For more full media handling capabilities check out our laravel-medialibrary package.

I'm gonna give this a +1 - I'm honestly pretty dumbfounded that there's no way to 'save' to a string/buffer.

My use case is that I want to make manipulations to images and immediately push those to cloud storage, seems sub-optimal to save them to disk just read them again and then delete them.

Am I missing something?

Hi, do you have find a solution?

[mferrara]

@valh1996 - I didn't, I'm still persisting to disk and then pushing to the next operation.

Is it still really impossible to use a cloud storage??

I've been trying to use this library within the context of Laravel Vapor, and because I can't touch the filesystem for image storage, I haven't been able to find a good way to use this package, unfortunately.
