Gaufrette
A PHP library providing a filesystem abstraction layer to decouple file storage from application logic.
What is Gaufrette?
Gaufrette is a PHP library that provides a filesystem abstraction layer, allowing developers to manage files without being tied to specific storage backends. It enables applications to switch between different storage solutions seamlessly, such as moving from local storage to cloud services like Amazon S3, by abstracting storage details behind a consistent interface.
PHP developers building applications that require flexible file storage management, particularly those working with Symfony or needing to support multiple storage backends like cloud services, FTP, or local filesystems.
Developers choose Gaufrette for its storage agnosticism, allowing them to write file operations once and switch backends without code changes, and for its extensive adapter support with metapackages that simplify dependency management.
