How Upload images with cloudinary + Laravel? - php

Question

Well, what happens is that I want to upload an image to Cloudinary through Laravel,
I Follow the steps as it says on the documentation:
https://github.com/cloudinary-labs/cloudinary-laravel
and here : https://cloudinary.com/blog/laravel_file_upload_to_a_local_server_or_to_the_cloud
I am using Laravel 8, here is my code:
public function store(Request $request){
$request->validate([
'name' => 'required|string|unique:festivals|max:255', //unique:table
'description' => 'required|string|max:255',
'image' => 'required|image|dimensions:min_width=200,min_height=200',
], self::$messages);
//Here I create an instance and upload file to server
$festival = new Festival($request->all());
$path = cloudinary()->upload($request->file('image')->getRealPath())->getSecurePath();
dd($path);
//Then at field image of festivals que save the path and that goes to the database
$festival->image = 'festivals/' . basename($path);
$festival->save();
return response() -> json($festival, 201); //code 201 created
}
When I try to create a new record through Postman, this happens:
Error after register new festival
However, the image was uploaded to Cloudinary:
image uploaded
Then I tried to check if the record was created, but it was not created.
What can I do, does anyone know?
Thanks

Ok, I Solved :)
//Here I create an instance and upload file to server
$festival = new Festival($request->all());
$result = $request->image->storeOnCloudinary();
//Here I get the url
$path = $result->getPath();
//Then at field image of festivals que save the path and that goes to the database
//$festival->image = $path; output: "https://res.cloudinary.com/test/image/upload/v1226931211/zuiyb17vfs8dre6gvuov.jpg"
//$festival->image = dirname($path); output: "https://res.cloudinary.com/test/image/upload/v1526711711"
//$festival->image = basename($path); output: "zuiy31lvfs4dre5gvuov.jpg"
$base = basename(dirname($path).basename($path)); //output: "v1636941221zuiyb14vfsmdre6gvuov.jpg"
$folder = substr($base, 0, -24); //output: "v1626915261"
//So:
$img_path = $folder.'/'.basename($path);
$festival->image = 'festivals/'.$img_path; //imageFolder/imageName.jpg;
But if someone has a best way, please tell me
