Laravel 5.3 Image Upload with Validation example
Laravel is very popular PHP framework today and Laravel 5.3 released few days ago. There are several changes and enhancement on Laravel 5.3 version.
So, Today i want to share with you how to image uploading in Laravel 5.3 with validation. If you are beginners then you can do that simply by following few step. Laravel 5.3 provide very simple way to create file uploading with proper validation like max file size 2MB, valid file extension like jpeg,png,jpg,gif or svg etc. So you can easily also implement this on your laravel 5.3 application.
I give you very easy and simple example that way you can understand very well. So you have to just following few step and get output like as bellow preview:
Preview:
Step 1: Add Route
First we have add two route in routes.php file. first one for generate view and second one for post method. so let's add bellow route in your route file.
routes/web.php
Route::get('image-upload','ImageController@imageUpload');
Route::post('image-upload','ImageController@imageUploadPost');
Step 2: Add Controller
Ok, now we need to create ImageController.php file. If you don't have ImageController then you can create new and put bellow code on that file. Make sure you have "images" folder with full permission in your public directory. we will store image in images directory.
app/Http/Controllers/ImageController.php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Requests;
class ImageController extends Controller
{
/**
* Create view file
*
* @return void
*/
public function imageUpload()
{
return view('image-upload');
}
/**
* Manage Post Request
*
* @return void
*/
public function imageUploadPost(Request $request)
{
$this->validate($request, [
'image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg|max:2048',
]);
$imageName = time().'.'.$request->image->getClientOriginalExtension();
$request->image->move(public_path('images'), $imageName);
return back()
->with('success','Image Uploaded successfully.')
->with('path',$imageName);
}
}
Step 3: Create Blade File
In At Last we require to create view file for image or file uploading. so you can create image-upload.blade.php and put following code in that file.
resources/views/image-upload.blade.php
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Laravel 5.3 Image Upload with Validation example</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css">

<div class="panel-body">
@if (count($errors) > 0)
<div class="alert alert-danger">
<strong>Whoops!</strong> There were some problems with your input.<br><br>
<ul>
@foreach ($errors->all() as $error)
<li>{{ $error }}</li>
@endforeach
</ul>
</div>
@endif
@if ($message = Session::get('success'))
<div class="alert alert-success alert-block">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert">×</button>
<strong>{{ $message }}</strong>
</div>
<img src="/images/{{ Session::get('path') }}">
@endif
<form action="{{ url('image-upload') }}" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST">
{{ csrf_field() }}
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<input type="file" name="image" />
</div>
<div class="col-md-12">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success">Upload</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
