Cloudinary storage adapter

About

This plugin serves as a Cloudinary storage adapter for Payload CMS, allowing seamless integration of media storage directly to Cloudinary's platform. Users can upload files directly to Cloudinary with automatic URL generation and can utilize various features such as dynamic folder management and automatic image optimization. The plugin supports smart folder organization, transformation presets for reusable image settings, and includes options for secure file access via signed URLs. Media collections configured with this plugin can disable local storage, fully relying on Cloudinary for file handling. It also introduces a queue system to manage large uploads with progress tracking. Notably, it enables responsive images with optimization applied at delivery, ensuring that the best format and quality are automatically selected. Public previews, alongside various transformation options, help in managing privacy and aesthetics of media files. To set it up, developers need to provide Cloudinary credentials in environment variables and configure the plugin within their Payload setup. The library promotes a modular approach, allowing for custom configurations tailored to project needs.
