Hello Devs,

In this tutorial, we are going to see example of image upload laravel 7.

Follow this step by step guide given below:




Step 1 : 


Install Laravel

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog



Step 2 : 


Create Migration & Model

php artisan make:model Image -m

database/migrations/2019_12_11_111847_create_images_table.php

<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

class CreateImageTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('images', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('image');
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('images');
    }
}

Run this command:

php artisan migrate



Step 3 : 


Create Controller  

php artisan make:controller ImageController



Step 4 : 


Create Controller method app/http/controllers/ImageController

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Image;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class ImageController extends Controller
{

    public function create()
    {
        return view('create');        
    }

    public function store(Request $request)
    {
        $input = $request->all();

        request()->validate([
            'image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg|max:2048',

        ]);

        $imageName = time().'.'.request()->image->getClientOriginalExtension();
        $input['image'] = $imageName;
        request()->image->move(public_path('images'), $imageName);

        Image::create($input);
        return back()
                ->with('success','Image Upload Successfully');

    }
}



Step 5 : 


Create Routes routes/web.php

Route::get('image','ImageController@create')->name('image.create');
Route::post('image','ImageController@store')->name('image.store');



Step 6 : 


Create View File resources/views/create.blade.php
