Azure Storage SDK - Moodle Plugin

A moodle plugin containing the Microsoft Azure Storage SDK for PHP.

To use the SDK, simply include the autoloader contained within this plugin.

require_once($CFG->dirroot . '/local/azure_storage/vendor/autoload.php');

Why does this exist?

There is a growing collection of various moodle plugins that require these Azure libraries in order to work. We don't want to have multiple copies of these libraries bundled into each plugin, firstly because they are quite large, but also because it can cause issues with library namespaces and php auto loading.

Plugins that depend on this library are:

Supported Moodle Versions

Branch	Version support	Notes
MOODLE_42_STABLE	4.2 +	Uses an older re-namespaced version of the GuzzleHttp library, due to conflicts with core GuzzleHttp in 4.2+
master	2.6 - 4.1

Since 17 March 2024 the Azure storage PHP SDK this plugin uses was deprecated and is no longer being maintained. While the API may still work, it is not officially being supported and will slowly become more incompatible with newer versions of PHP. This plugin is not actively maintained.
