Spark Profile pics S3

This worked for me ... (must add AWS settings to the filesystems config)

    public function booted()
    {
        // Override the default UpdateProfilePhoto@handle method which stores the file locally
        Spark::swap('UpdateProfilePhoto@handle', function ($user, array $data)
        {
            $imageManager = new ImageManager();

            $file = $data['photo'];
            $formatImage = (string) $imageManager->make($file->path())->fit(300)->encode();

            $path = $file->hashName('profiles');

            // Store the file on s3, grab the url and store with this user in the database row.
            $disk = Storage::disk('s3');

            $disk->put(
                $path, $formatImage
            );

            $user->forceFill([
                'photo_url' => $disk->url($path),
            ])->save();
        });
    }

@haydenp Did you add this to SparkServiceProvider.php? Where did you import the ImagManager from? Thanks!

@bryan try this: http://image.intervention.io/getting_started/installation

@bryan yes, thats the booted() method inside my SparkServiceProvider.php. And ImageManager ...

use Intervention\Image\ImageManager;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;

Hope that answers your question ;-)

So, I looked at this and found it a lot simpler to change the 'public' in the config/filesystem.php to

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

Not aware of any other impact.

Took a little tweaking on the S3 side to make the profiles folder public etc.
