You can install the package via composer:

composer require blaspsoft/doxswap

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="doxswap-config"

The config/doxswap.php file includes:

• input_disk: Where to read files from (default: 'public')
• output_disk: Where to save converted files (default: 'public')
• perform_cleanup: Delete input files after conversion (default: false)

Configure how output files are named using different strategies:

'filename' => [
    // Strategy: 'original', 'random', or 'timestamp'
    'strategy' => 'original',

    // Naming options
    'options' => [
        'length' => 24,          // Length for random names
        'prefix' => '',          // Add prefix to filename
        'suffix' => '',          // Add suffix to filename
        'separator' => '_',      // Separator for components
        'format' => 'YmdHis',    // Format for timestamp strategy
    ],
]

Configure paths for conversion tools:

'drivers' => [
    'libreoffice_path' => env('LIBRE_OFFICE_PATH', '/usr/bin/soffice'),
]

Default LibreOffice paths by OS:

• 🐧 Linux: /usr/bin/soffice
• 🍎 macOS: /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice
