Warning - this package will be deprecated on 17 March 2024 about laravel-azure-storage HOT 8 OPEN

I have a horrible feeling that I'm going to end up writing and supporting a "Flysystem driver" (ish) for this using the REST APIs, as there are clients on AzureGov with no chance of using anything else.

Either that or I'll get the clients to apply pressure to MSFT, I imagine apoplectic will be an understatement from their viewpoint.
I believe but am not certain that they have requirements written into contracts, so I may be able to maintain a community fork off the back of that.

If I do then I'll update here, happy to fork this if necessary

from laravel-azure-storage.

@lrljoe I'll be happy to link from this repository to any alternative implementation that might appear. When the time comes I will be marking this package as abandoned so if an alternative is available at that time, I will be happy to update the composer.json to recommend it as an alternative too.

Community supported approach here:

.https://github.com/Azure-OSS/azure-storage-php

Namespace updates and doc updates are still happening

Think there will be a few different maintainers to ensure support continues.

@lrljoe Good to hear.

It would still need a replacement for the Flysystem Azure integration as well. Given that I haven't used Azure Storage for a long time, I don't plan to maintain this beyond that point regardless, but if someone wants to fork it or write a similar adapter for a similar community maintained Flysystem driver I'm happy to endorse it and mark it as the officially sanctioned replacement for this package, and assist with the transition.

I'll add the flysystem requirement into the new project and see whether there's scope or just lift and shift the existing repo and renamespace.

When that happens, are you happy for the same to be done for this repo?

It's all going to be kept fully open source, and I imagine it'll grow with time with requirements

from laravel-azure-storage.

Yes, that's fine.

I read above that @lrljoe will continue to develop further on the new Community Supported approach at https://github.com/Azure-OSS/azure-storage-php. @lrljoe Will you forking a new project, and when do you expect to have it available?

from laravel-azure-storage.

I personally don't plan to continue working on this past that point. I have never actually used this package myself in production and it's been nearly a decade since I used Azure Blob Storage professionally so it seemed like an appropriate time to withdraw from it.
