How to Use

Getting the module

1. Create a storage folder in your Ghost content root, eg. /var/www/ghost/content/storage

Via Git

2. Clone this repo into your storage folder
3. The module will be available under whatever folder name you checked out this repo to, which is ghost-azure-store by default

Via npm

2. Run npm install ghost-azure-storage from your Ghost root

Note that upgrading Ghost will overwrite your local package.json, so --saveing the module will get lost down the line

3. Create a node script in your storage folder which exports the ghost-azure-storage module, like so:

module.exports = require("ghost-azure-store");

4. The module will be available under whatever filename you used for the above script. eg. storage/ghost-azure-store.js will be available as ghost-azure-store

Configuring Ghost

Add a storage block to Ghost's config, as below. Make sure you change ghost-azure-store to the name you chose above!

storage :{
  active: 'ghost-azure-store',

  'ghost-azure-store': {
    key: "{azure storage key}",
    storage: "myblogstore",
    container: "my-container"
  }
},

Using the above options, images would be uploaded to http://myblogstore.blob.core.windows.net/container/. If you want to give your storage a custom domain name, you can also set the baseURL config parameter to something along the lines of http://assets.mylovelyblog.com and the URLs stored in Ghost's database will use that instead.
