Sasha b540da53ec feat(storage-*): large file uploads on Vercel (#11382)
Currently, usage of Payload on Vercel has a limitation - uploads are
limited by 4.5MB file size.
This PR allows you to pass `clientUploads: true` to all existing storage
adapters
* Storage S3
* Vercel Blob
* Google Cloud Storage
* Uploadthing
* Azure Blob

And then, Payload will do uploads on the client instead. With the S3
Adapter it uses signed URLs and with Vercel Blob it does this -

Note that it doesn't mean that anyone can now upload files to your
storage, it still does auth checks and you can customize that with
`clientUploads.access`

Vercel Blob Storage for Payload

This package provides a simple way to use Vercel Blob storage with Payload.

NOTE: This package removes the need to use @payloadcms/plugin-cloud-storage as was needed in Payload 2.x.

Installation

pnpm add @payloadcms/storage-vercel-blob

Usage

  • Configure the collections object to specify which collections should use the Vercel Blob adapter. The slug must match one of your existing collection slugs.
  • Ensure you have BLOB_READ_WRITE_TOKEN set in your Vercel environment variables. This is usually set by Vercel automatically after adding blob storage to your project.
  • When enabled, this package will automatically set disableLocalStorage to true for each collection.
  • When deploying to Vercel, server uploads are limited with 4.5MB. Set clientUploads to true to do uploads directly on the client.
