Laravel Medianova CDN Integration 

Laravel Medianova CDN integration is done by creating a helper function that rewrites URLs.

We have prepared the following steps for Laravel CDN integration.

1. Before Laravel CDN integration, create a “New Zone” for your  Small and Large objects or your Aksela account at panel.medianova.com
2. Create the ./App/helpers.php file and update the ./composer.json

   ...
   "autoload": {
       "classmap": [
         ...
        ],
        ...
        "files": [
            "app/helpers.php"
        ]
   },
   ...
   

3. Run the composer dump-autoload command from the terminal in the directory where your project is located
4. Add the following code to your./app/helpers.php file. If the CDN URLs are not defined in the ./Config/app.php config file, the standard asset () function is called

   <?php
   // global CDN function
   function cdn( $file ){
       // Verify if Medianova CDN URLs are present in the config file
       if( !Config::get('app.cdn') )
           return asset( $file );
       // Get file name incl extension and CDN URLs
       $cdns = Config::get('app.cdn');
       $fileName = basename( $file );
       // Remove query string
       $fileName = explode("?", $fileName);
       $fileName = $fileName[0];
       // Select the CDN URL based on the extension
       foreach( $cdns as $cdn => $types ) {
           if( preg_match('/^.*\.(' . $types . ')$/i', $fileName) )
               return cdnUrl($cdn, $file);
       }
       // In case of no match use the last in the array
       end($cdns);
       return cdnUrl( key( $cdns ) , $file);
   }
   function cdnUrl($cdn, $file) {
       return  "//" . rtrim($cdn, "/") . "/" . ltrim( $file, "/");
   }
   ?>

5. Define the CDN URLs in the ./config/app.php file

   'cdn' => array(
           "your-cdn-url.com" => "css|js|eot|woff|ttf|jpg|jpeg|png|gif|svg"
       ),

   Example;

   <?php
   return [
       /*
       |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
       | Application MnCDN domains
       |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
       |
       | Specify different domains for your assets.
       |
       */
   'cdn' => array(
           "your-cdn-url.com" => "css|js|eot|woff|ttf|jpg|jpeg|png|gif|svg"
       ),

6. The global use of the helper function is as follows

   <img src="{{ cdn( "//img-docsmedianova.mncdn.com/img/medianovaCDN.png" ) }}" alt="Loaded from Medianova CDN" />

7. Verify the HTML source code if your assets are loading from Medianova CDN
