Stein.Storage covers uploading, downloading, and deleting remote files

Available backends

FileBackend

The Stein.Storage.FileBackend is available for development purposes.

For the file backend, you can configure the folder Stein should use. This should be a local folder that Elixir has read/write permissions to. It should end with a trailing slash.

config :stein_storage,
  backend: :file,
  file_backend_folder: "uploads/"

The default folder is Stein's priv/files.

To fully support the file storage, you should also add a new Plug.Static to your endpoint. This will let the URLs the backend returns load.

 if Mix.env() == :dev do
   plug(Plug.Static, at: "/uploads", from: "uploads/files")
 end

S3Backend

The Stein.Storage.S3Backend handles uploading, downloading, and deletes from Amazon S3.

For the S3 backend, you can also configure the bucket Stein should upload to.

config :stein_storage,
  backend: :s3,
  bucket: "my-bucket"

MockBackend

The Stein.Storage.MockBackend mocks out all actions for use in tests. Each action is a no-op.

config :stein_storage,
  backend: :test
