Included in this folder are two sample projects for demonstrating the common Cloudinary's usage in PHP.

The cloudinary_php package is ready to be used as-is in your Apache server. (other servers are also supported, but the access restrictions set in .htaccess might not work). As described in cloudinary_php main README.md file, you have to set up your Cloudinary credentials either by passing it as the CLOUDINARY_URL environment variable or calling Cloudinary::config(). Each sample tries to include settings.php for configuration data - you can use the included settings.php.sample as a basis for such file.

This sample is a synchronous script that shows the upload process from local file, remote URL, with different transformations and options.

You can access it through http://YOUR_SERVER/PATH_TO_CLOUDINARY_PHP/samples/basic/basic.php

Another option is available if you are using PHP 5.4 or higher. Go to the samples/basic directory and run:

php -S localhost:8001

Then you can simply browse to:

http://localhost:8001/basic.php     

A simple web application that allows you to uploads photos, maintain a database with references to them, list them with their metadata, and display them using various cloud-based transformations.

Make sure to first create a MySQL database (e.g., create database photo_album). Then edit settings.php to have the correct database details. For example:

R::setup('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=photo_album', 'my_db_user', 'my_db_password');

You can access it through http://YOUR_SERVER/PATH_TO_CLOUDINARY_PHP/samples/PhotoAlbum/list.php

Another option is available if you are using PHP 5.4 or higher. Go to the samples/PhotoAlbum directory and run:

php -S localhost:8001

Then you can simply browse to:

http://localhost:8001/list.php
