Sasha e36ab6aa2a fix(storage-gcs): client uploads are enabled even if clientUploads is not set (#11527)
Client uploads were always enabled because a wrong variable was used,
when passing `enabled` to `initClientUploads`,
`gcsStorageOptions.enabled` instead of `gcsStorageOptions.clientUploads`

To enable client uploads with GCS you also additionally need to
configure CORS on Google Cloud, therefore this change breaks existing
logic

Google Cloud Storage for Payload

This package provides a simple way to use Google Cloud 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-gcs

Usage

  • Configure the collections object to specify which collections should use the Google Cloud Storage adapter. The slug must match one of your existing collection slugs.
  • 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. You must allow CORS PUT method for the bucket to your website.
import { gcsStorage } from '@payloadcms/storage-gcs'
import { Media } from './collections/Media'
import { MediaWithPrefix } from './collections/MediaWithPrefix'

export default buildConfig({
  collections: [Media, MediaWithPrefix],
  plugins: [
    gcsStorage({
      collections: {
        media: true,
        'media-with-prefix': {
          prefix,
        },
      },
      bucket: process.env.GCS_BUCKET,
      options: {
        apiEndpoint: process.env.GCS_ENDPOINT,
        projectId: process.env.GCS_PROJECT_ID,
      },
    }),
  ],
})
