I am new to ci. I have seen the documentation for file uploader and
implemented the sample page. But I want to upload the image and store it into MySQL database.
Can anyone provide solution for it with example?
Upload the image to a folder called uploads and then store the path to the image in your DB

I am currently working on a personal stylist app using the codeigniter framework. I would like to display a list of items with their corresponding picture stored in my phpmyadmin database. I have researched about this and i found out that it is best practice to store only the file path of the image instead of storing the image directly in the database. I was just wondering if you guys could help me on how to do this properly. Thanks in advance!
Store relative path to your image. For example if the image is located on http://www.example.com/uploads/images/picture.jpg, keep only /uploads/images/picture.jpg in database
I have uploaded and stored multiple images at a time in a MySQL database using jQuery and PHP. This time I am storing image name in database and uploads file in a folder at server.
Now, I want to retrieve image name from database and preview this image and also want to provide actions of delete and add images.
Can anyone help me out on this issue?
Here is my steps:
Create a php file
Connect to mysql database
Select the table where the images was saved.
Loop the query.
Add delete query.
Hope this helps.
Im a CakePHP beginner and I would like to know how to upload Image files directly to MySQL database using LONGBLOB field without uploading the image to the WWW_ROOT folder/directory. Is it possible to skip the move_uploaded_file thingy during the upload process? Thanks for the responses :)
You can collect the content of uploaded image file without storing in your filesystem using "move_uploaded_file()" with the help of code given below:
$uploadedImageFileContent = file_get_contents($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name']);<br /><br />
And the uploaded image file content can be stored in database in a LONGBLOB field.
I'm new in CakePHP and trying to learn but I don't understand this part very well..
I'm using this CakePHP Upload plugin to upload images for users(avatars) and using imagick it resize image to certain sizes(thumbs)...
I follow Upload plugin instructions for uploading image. I manage to store image file and image directory in database. So column photo in database would be (imagename.jpg) and photo directory would be userid,
for example (35). Image also appear in files/user/userid/imagename.jpg
Now may be it's funny but how I output this image and display in view file ? Also is there possibility to randomize file name ? (so the file name is not same as uploaded)
to view your upload in view files of CakePHP
you write in ctp files like
$html->link($html->image('files/user/".$userId."/".$ImageName."', array('alt'=>"User Image", 'border'=>"0"))
,'#',array('id'=>$userId, 'escape'=>false));
let me know if i can help you further,
I am looking for a very basic image uploader script. Just one that uploads the image to a folder and stores the filename in a mysql database.
Is there any small easy to intergrate scripts anyone know of?
Thank you for the help
This tutorial does what you want http://php.about.com/od/phpwithmysql/ss/Upload_file_sql.htm in addition stores some extra metadata in the same table (employee details) along with the filename (photo)
Images can be saved as blob types in a database
You have to create a form with a browse button (google it)
You have to create your table with the a field of type blob
That's it.
