How to Store Image in Database Using Laravel With Base URL - php

Question

When I'm storing an image into a database, then it doesn't upload with base URL. How can resolve this type of problem in Laravel?
public function uploadimage(Request $request)
{
if ($request->hasFile('image')) {
$file = $request->file('image');
$filename = $file->getClientOriginalName();
$extension = $file->getClientOriginalExtension();
$picture = date('His') . '-' . $filename;
$file->move(public_path('img'), $picture);
$employee_image = Image::create($request->all());
$employee_image->image = $filename;
$employee_image->save();
return response()->json(['message' => 'Image Uploaded Successfully']);
}
return response()->json(['message' => 'Select image first.']);
}

Answer 1

The public_path() function does not intend to be use to serve browser friendly uri, so, you should use \Illuminate\Support\Facades\URL facade instead.
e.g.:
$employee_image->image = URL::asset('storage/employees/').$filename;
$employee_image->save();

Try this ....
public function uploadimage(Request $request)
{
$this->validate($request, [
'image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg|max:2048',
]);
$employees = new Image($request->input()) ;
if($file = $request->hasFile('image')) {
$file = $request->file('image') ;
$fileName = $file->getClientOriginalName() ;
$destinationPath = public_path().'/images/' ;
$file->move($destinationPath,$fileName);
$employees->image = '/public/images/'.$fileName ;
}
$employees->save() ;
return response()->json(['message' => 'Image Uploaded Successfully']);
}
