IMPORTANT NOTE:

Since this package is using image processing libraries and these underlying libraries may use a lot of memory, especially if the processed files are large (for example, for an 8MB image file, more than 128MB of memory might be used ), make sure to configure php accordingly and/or do ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ‘256M’);

Failure to do so may result in silent errors if allotted memory is insufficient.

# Configuration

The config/enso/documents.php configuration file, lets you customize the following:

• deletableTimeLimit - the time limit for deleting an uploaded document, in seconds. Default is 60 * 60 (1 hour)

• linkExpiration, - the time limit for document share link, in seconds. Default is 60 * 60 * 24 (1 day)

• imageWidth - the image width, in pixels, used when resizing bigger picture files. Default is 2048

• imageHeight - the image height, in pixels, used when resizing bigger picture files. Default is 2048

• onDelete, string, option that manages the case when the commentable entity is deleted and it has attached addresses. Valid options are cascade, restrict | default is cascade

  With the cascade option, when a commentable model is deleted, the comments attached to it are also deleted. With the restrict option, when attempting to delete a commentable model with attached comments, an exception is thrown.

• loggableMorph, the list of entities using the commentable functionality, each mapped to its respective loggable attribute For example:

  'commentable' => [
      Company::class => 'name',
  ],
  

  This configuration is used for activity logging.
