        'collection' => 'avatars',
        'model_fields' => [
            'name' => fn($index) => "User {$index}",
            'email' => fn($index) => "user{$index}@example.com",
        ],
    ]);

The package comes with a comprehensive configuration file:

// config/media-generator.php
return [
    'defaults' => [
        'concurrent_downloads' => 10,
        'batch_size' => 50,
        'timeout' => 15,
        'image_source' => 'picsum',

Advanced Usage

Custom Image Sources

Create your own image source by implementing the ImageSourceInterface:

use AhmadChebbo\LaravelMediaGenerator\Contracts\ImageSourceInterface;

class CustomImageSource implements ImageSourceInterface
{
    public function generateUrl(int $width, int $height, int $index = null): string
    {
        return "https://example.com/image/{$width}x{$height}/{$index}";
    }

    public function getName(): string
    {
        return 'custom';
    }

    public function getDescription(): string
    {
        return 'My custom image source';
    }
}

Register it in your service provider:

$this->app->bind('media-generator.sources.custom', CustomImageSource::class);

Dynamic Model Fields

Use closures for dynamic field values:

$service->generateMedia([
    'count' => 100,
    'model_class' => \App\Models\Product::class,
    'model_fields' => [
        'name' => fn($index) => "Product {$index}",
        'price' => fn() => rand(1000, 50000) / 100,
        'category_id' => fn() => rand(1, 10),
        'created_at' => fn() => now()->subDays(rand(1, 365)),
    ],
]);

Progress Tracking

Add custom progress tracking:

$service->generateMedia([
    'count' => 1000,
    'model_class' => \App\Models\Image::class,
    'progress_callback' => function ($current, $total) {
        $percentage = round(($current / $total) * 100, 2);
        echo "Progress: {$current}/{$total} ({$percentage}%)\n";
    },
]);
