How to upload a file (Laravel) - php

Question

I want to upload a file in Laravel:
I put this code in route
Route::post('upload', 'myconttest#test')->name('upload');
And put this code in controller
function test(Request $request){
$file=$request->file('myfile');
$filename=$file->getClinetOriginalName();
// $projectname;
$path='files/';
$file->move($path,$filename);
}
I create a folder in public called files. The code runs without error but the file is not saved.

Answer 1

Its a working code please see this
public function store(Request $request)
{
$checkval = implode(',', $request->category);
$input = $request->all();
$input['category'] = $checkval;
if ($request->hasFile('userpic')) {
$userpic = $input['pic'];
$file_path = public_path("avatars/$userpic");
if(File::exists($file_path)) {
File::delete($file_path);
}
$fileName = time().$request->userpic->getClientOriginalName();
$request->userpic->move(public_path('avatars'), $fileName);
$input['userpic'] = $fileName;
Product::create($input);
return redirect()->route('productCRUD.index')->with('success','Product created successfully');
}
}

Make sure your form is enabled to upload the file. So check that the following attribute is set or not.
<form action"" 'files' => true>
Use the following namespace
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Input;
Then try this:
$file = Input::file('myfile');
$filename = $file->getClinetOriginalName();
move_uploaded_file($file->getPathName(), 'your_target_path/'.$filename);

I think you can try this:
First you give folder permission to files folder in public folder
function test(Request $request){
$file=$request->file('myfile');
$filename=$file->getClinetOriginalName();
$file->move(public_path().'/files/', $filename);
}
Hope this work for you !!!

In controller test function you need to given public path of files folder like
$path = public_path('files/');
for moving file on given public folder path.
