The public
disk is intended for files that are going to be publicly accessible. By default, the public
disk uses the local driver and stores these files in storage/app/public
. To make them accessible from the web, you should create a symbolic link from public/storage
to storage/app/public
. Laravel doc
Create Symbolic link in Linux
ln -s source_file myfile
solved it with just a simple modification on the filesystems config/file systems
from :
'local' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app'),
]
to :
'local' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public'),
]
As Mayank Majithya notes, a symbolic link is one common way to access storage/app/public/
files from the public/
directory, and in fact the method the Laravel docs say you should use.
If you are on shared hosting that disallows this, you could also try to use Laravel's storage_path()
helper function, like so: <img src="{{ storage_path('subpaths/under/storage/filename.jpg') }}">
(reference).
I also notice you mention the images are stored in the database. If you mean the whole file is stored, it may be more efficient (once you have the file path figured out) to store only the file path in your database, rather than the whole file (since it is already stored on disk). You can then use your model to get the path (assuming your table has columns for, say, 'src' and 'alt'):
<img src="{{ $mymodel->src }}" alt="{{ $mymodel->alt }}">
