Currently i am working on laravel 5.5 application and i require to image upload function in my laravel 5.5 application. Then i decide to share image uploading laravel 5.5 with developer so it can be help to someone. File upload feature almost require to every application as i know. So here i will make it very easy example of image upload.
In this article i will create two routes one for get method and another for post method. i created simple form with file input. So you have to simple select image and then it will upload in "images" directory of public folder. I also implemented validation of mimes and file size. So you have to simple follow bellow step and get image upload in laravel 5.5 application.
Step 1 : Install Laravel 5.5 Application
First we have to get fresh Laravel 5.5 version application using bellow command because we are going from scratch, So open your terminal OR command prompt and run bellow command:
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog
Step 2: Add Images Routes
In second step, we will add new two routes in web.php file. One route for generate form and another for post method So let's simply create both route as bellow listed:
routes/web.php
Route::get('image-upload',['as'=>'image.upload','uses'=>'ImageUploadController@imageUpload']);
Route::post('image-upload',['as'=>'image.upload.post','uses'=>'ImageUploadController@imageUploadPost']);
Step 3: Create New Controller
In third step we will have to create new ImageUploadController and here we have to write two method imageUpload() and imageUploadPost(). So one method will handle get method another one for post. So let's add code.
app/Http/Controllers/ImageUploadController.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class ImageUploadController extends Controller
{
/**
* Display a listing of the resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function imageUpload()
{
return view('imageUpload');
}
/**
* Display a listing of the resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function imageUploadPost()
{
request()->validate([
'image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg|max:2048',
]);
$imageName = time().'.'.request()->image->getClientOriginalExtension();
request()->image->move(public_path('images'), $imageName);
return back()
->with('success','You have successfully upload image.')
->with('image',$imageName);
}
}
Step 4: Create Blade File
At last step we need to create imageUpload.blade.php file and in this file we will create form with file input button. So copy bellow and put on that file.
resources/views/imageUpload.blade.php
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Laravel 5.5 image upload example</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://getbootstrap.com/dist/css/bootstrap.css">
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="panel panel-primary">
<div class="panel-heading"><h2>Laravel 5.5 image upload example</h2></div>
<div class="panel-body">
@if ($message = Session::get('success'))
<div class="alert alert-success alert-block">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert">×</button>
<strong>{{ $message }}</strong>
</div>
<img src="images/{{ Session::get('image') }}">
@endif
@if (count($errors) > 0)
<div class="alert alert-danger">
<strong>Whoops!</strong> There were some problems with your input.
<ul>
@foreach ($errors->all() as $error)
<li>{{ $error }}</li>
@endforeach
</ul>
</div>
@endif
{!! Form::open(array('route' => 'image.upload.post','files'=>true)) !!}
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
{!! Form::file('image', array('class' => 'form-control')) !!}
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success">Upload</button>
</div>
</div>
{!! Form::close() !!}
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Ok, now we are ready to run our laravel 5.5 image upload example. But make sure you have to create "images" in public directory. So all file store will there.
