## Full Installation Guide
1. Install package

```bash
    composer require unisharp/laravel-filemanager
    ```

1. (optional) Install required dependency with `v3.*` of `intervention/image`:

This package use `intervention/image` to perform image cropping/resizing and generating thumbnails. Since `v3.*` of `intervention/image` does not support Laravel by default, the service provider need to be installed with the following scripts. Details can be found here: https://github.com/Intervention/image-laravel

```bash
    composer require intervention/image-laravel
    php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Intervention\Image\Laravel\ServiceProvider"
    ```

\* *Do not run these scripts if you use `v2.*` of `intervention/image`.*

1. Publish the package's config and assets :

```bash
    php artisan vendor:publish --tag=lfm_config
    php artisan vendor:publish --tag=lfm_public
    ```

1. (optional) Run commands to clear cache :

```bash
    php artisan route:clear
    php artisan config:clear
    ```

1. Ensure that the files & images directories (in `config/lfm.php`) are writable by your web server (run commands like `chown` or `chmod`).

1. Create symbolic link :

```bash
    php artisan storage:link
    ```

1. Edit `APP_URL` in `.env`.

1. Edit `routes/web.php` :

Create route group to wrap package routes.

```php
    Route::group(['prefix' => 'laravel-filemanager', 'middleware' => ['web', 'auth']], function () {
        \UniSharp\LaravelFilemanager\Lfm::routes();
    });
    ```

Make sure `auth` middleware is present to :

1. prevent unauthorized uploads
    1. work properly with multi-user mode

1. make sure database exists

1. login and visit `/laravel-filemanager/demo`
