I am uploading an image file to the input file ImageUpload.I need to check if file has been uploaded then create a unique filename and save it on the server.
$file = $request->file('ImageUpload');
$filename=uniqid($user->id . '_' ).".".$file->getClientOriginalExtension();
Storage::disk('public')->put($filename,File::get($file));
You can check if your file variable
exists as
if($request->hasFile('ImageUpload')){ }
But, as per official documentation, to check whether file upload is successful without any errors,
if($request('ImageUpload')->isValid()){ }
Laravel is extensive, it allows you to save file without writing extra call to Storage etc. as
$filePath = $request->ImageUpload->storeAs('DIRECTORY_IN_STORAGE', 'CUSTOM_FILE_NAME'); // it return the path at which the file is now saved
try this one
if($request->hasFile('ImageUpload')) { //check file is getting or not..
$file = $request->file('ImageUpload');
$filename=uniqid($user->id . '_' ).".".$file->getClientOriginalExtension(); //create unique file name...
Storage::disk('public')->put($filename,File::get($file));
if(Storage::disk('public')->exists($filename)) { // check file exists in directory or not
info("file is store successfully : ".$filename);
}else {
info("file is not found :- ".$filename);
}
}
Try this.
if($request->hasFile('ImageUpload'))
{
$filenameWithExt = $request->file('ImageUpload')->getClientOriginalName();
$filename = pathinfo($filenameWithExt, PATHINFO_FILENAME);
$extension = $request->file('ImageUpload')->getClientOriginalExtension();
$fileNameToStore = $filename.'_'.time().'.'.$extension;
$path = $request->file('ImageUpload')->storeAs('public', $fileNameToStore);
}
