I am building a web application using Laravel 5.1. So far I have enabled users to upload up to 9 photos. Now I want to enable them to upload videos. Since I don't have the resources to handle many video files, I want to use vimeo's servers. I submitted my app for approval and this is what I got.

Approved for the following accounts: Basic accounts PLUS accounts PRO accounts

So far so good. What I don't understand is can I upload video to vimeo without storing it to server in Laravel? I mean I know I can, I just want to do it directly. User sees a form. Uploads a video, it goes to their servers and then I use their api to show the video in my web application. Is that possible or do I have to pay for that? And one more thing, can you suggest me good packages?

  • Have you tried "Simple HTTP Post Uploading" described at https://developer.vimeo.com/api/upload/videos ? It tells you exactly how to do it? – user1669496 Mar 23 '16 at 18:58
  • Yeah, https://github.com/vinkla/vimeo - this is the package I'm using. I am getting "Unable to locate file to upload" error. Vimeo::upload($request->file('video')->getRealPath(), false); - this the code from my controller – festiv Mar 25 '16 at 22:25
