Step 1: Create Routes

first of all, we will add routes and controller file so first add bellow route in your routes.php file.

routes/web.php

Route::get('images-upload', 'HomeController@imagesUpload');

Route::post('images-upload', 'HomeController@imagesUploadPost')->name('images.upload');

Step 2: Create HomeController

now we need to create new HomeController for image uploading and generate view file. So let's create HomeController and put bellow code.

app/Http/Controllers/HomeController.php

<?php


namespace App\Http\Controllers;


use Illuminate\Http\Request;


class HomeController extends Controller

{

/**

* Create a new controller instance.

*

* @return void

*/

public function imagesUpload()

{

return view('imagesUpload');

}


/**

* Create a new controller instance.

*

* @return void

*/

public function imagesUploadPost(Request $request)

{

request()->validate([

'uploadFile' => 'required',

]);


foreach ($request->file('uploadFile') as $key => $value) {

$imageName = time(). $key . '.' . $value->getClientOriginalExtension();

$value->move(public_path('images'), $imageName);

}


return response()->json(['success'=>'Images Uploaded Successfully.']);

}

}

Step 3: Create View File

At Last first we will create imagesUpload.blade.php file and put bellow code. So let's copy and paste bellow code.

resources/views/imagesUpload.blade.php

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>

<title>Laravel Ajax Multiple Image Upload with Preview Example</title>

<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.4/jquery.min.js"></script>

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery.form/4.2.2/jquery.form.min.js"></script>


<style type="text/css">

input[type=file]{

display: inline;

}

#image_preview{

border: 1px solid black;

padding: 10px;

}

#image_preview img{

width: 200px;

padding: 5px;

}

</style>


</head>

<body>


<div class="container">

<h1>Laravel Ajax Multiple Image Upload with Preview Example</h1>

<form action="{{ route('images.upload') }}" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

{{ csrf_field() }}

<input type="file" id="uploadFile" name="uploadFile[]" multiple/>

<input type="submit" class="btn btn-success" name='submitImage' value="Upload Image"/>

</form>


<br/>

<div id="image_preview"></div>

</div>


</body>


<script type="text/javascript">


$("#uploadFile").change(function(){

$('#image_preview').html("");

var total_file=document.getElementById("uploadFile").files.length;

for(var i=0;i<total_file;i++)

{

$('#image_preview').append("<img src='"+URL.createObjectURL(event.target.files[i])+"'>");

}

});


$('form').ajaxForm(function()

{

alert("Uploaded SuccessFully");

});


</script>

</html>

At Last Make sure you have "images" folder in public folder. All images will store in that folder.

I hope you found your best...
