使用Laravel中的REST API将大文件上传到Amazon S3

Question

I'm trying to upload videos to an Amazon S3 bucket through my Laravel API. I'm using the Laravel filesystem, and using:

Storage::getDriver()
         ->putStream('videos/' . $fileName . '.' . $ext, fopen($file, 'r+'));

It works perfectly for mp4 files of 1Mb, but when i try to upload something like 30Mb mp4 file, it takes about 3 minutes, and it doesn't succeed.

I use Postman to send the request POST http://localhost:8000/api/videos with Content-Type: form-data.

Does anyone have an idea?

Answer 1

I found that the solution to the problem was to set a higher value for "upload_max_filesize" and "post_max_size" in my php.ini file. Now it works perfectly.

Answer 2

Firstly: find the "php.ini" file (/etc/php/7.2/cli/php.ini) and open it by root (sudo)

Secondly: change post_max_size=50M and upload_max_filesize=50M (in your case just need to change upload_max_filesize).
