PHP Knowledge

Following steps follow :

1-create project as per you like name 

2-open command prompt run following code :

composer require aws/aws-sdk-php

3-after donwload or run above code then open your project file or path

4-make following files and put the key and secret code in this files 

config.php 

<?php
// Bucket Name
$bucket="BucketName";

//AWS access info
if (!defined('API_KEY')) define('API_KEY', 'ACCESS KEY');
if (!defined('API_SECRET')) define('API_SECRET', 'ACCESS SECRET KEY');
if (!defined('BUKETNAME')) define('BUKETNAME', 'BUCKET NAME');

    // Set Amazon s3 credentials
      $client = S3Client::factory(
      array(
      'key'    => API_KEY,
      'secret' => API_SECRET
       )
      );
?>

5-create home.php files and put below code :

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
require_once 'config.php';

use Aws\S3\S3Client;
use Aws\S3\Exception\S3Exception;
    //
$s3 = S3Client::factory(
        array(
            'credentials' => array(
                'key' => API_KEY,
                'secret' => API_SECRET
            ),
            'version' => 'latest',
            'region'  => 'ap-south-1'
        )
    );
?>

above code amazon s3 all property access and mention region name as per your location

below function show listing of directory or bucket name :

<?php
//Start::bucket list::-
 $result = $s3->listBuckets();
foreach ($result['Buckets'] as $bucket) {
   // Each Bucket value will contain a Name and CreationDate
     echo "{$bucket['Name']} - {$bucket['CreationDate']}\n";
 }
//End::bucket list::-
?>

in you project paste image file such as example : test.jpg , when you upload files on amazon s3 server then use following code :

Single image upload on amazon web server :

<?php
//Start::single image upload on server::
$filepath = __DIR__ . '/test.jpg';
$key=basename($filepath);
//
$tmp="test.jpg";
try {
   $finalreturn= $s3->putObject([
        'Bucket' => 'blissbasket',
        'Key'    => $key,
        'SourceFile' => $tmp,
    ]);
   //image name
$imgname=$finalreturn['ObjectURL'];

} catch (Aws\S3\Exception\S3Exception $e) {
    echo "There was an error uploading the file.\n";
}
// echo '<pre>';
// print_r($imgname);
// die;
?>

when you upload on subdirectory then first create folder and then move on this particular folder :

<?php
//Start::image upload folder on server::
 $filepath = __DIR__ . '/1_1/';
 $uploadsfiles=$s3->uploadDirectory($filepath, BUKETNAME);
//End:::image upload folder on server::
//Start::create folder on server::
 $uploadsfiles=$s3->putObject(array( 
                    'Bucket' => BUKETNAME,
                    'Key'    => "1_2/",
                    'Body'   => "",
                    'ACL'    => 'public-read'
                   ));
 $folderpath=$uploadsfiles['ObjectURL'];
// echo '<pre>';
// print_r($folderpath);
// die;
//End::create folder on server::
?>

then upload on particular folder image using following code:

<?php
//Start::single image upload on server::
$filepath = __DIR__ . '/1_1/test.jpg';
$key=basename($filepath);
//
$tmp="test.jpg";
try {
   $finalreturn= $s3->putObject([
        'Bucket' => 'blissbasket',
        'Key'    => '1_1/'.$key,
        'SourceFile' => $tmp,
    ]);
   //image name
$imgname=$finalreturn['ObjectURL'];

} catch (Aws\S3\Exception\S3Exception $e) {
    echo "There was an error uploading the file.\n";
}
// echo '<pre>';
// print_r($imgname);
// die;
//End::single image upload on server::
?>

following full code of image upload 

<?php

require 'vendor/autoload.php';
require_once 'config.php';

use Aws\S3\S3Client;
use Aws\S3\Exception\S3Exception;
 //
$s3 = S3Client::factory(
        array(
            'credentials' => array(
                'key' => API_KEY,
                'secret' => API_SECRET

//Start::single image upload on server::
$filepath = __DIR__ . '/1_1/ganesh.jpg';
$key=basename($filepath);
//
$tmp="ganesh.jpg";
try {
   $finalreturn= $s3->putObject([
        'Bucket' => 'blissbasket',
        'Key'    => '1_1/'.$key,
        'SourceFile' => $tmp,
    ]);
   //image name
$imgname=$finalreturn['ObjectURL'];

} catch (Aws\S3\Exception\S3Exception $e) {
    echo "There was an error uploading the file.\n";
}
?>
