class FileController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Show the application dashboard.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function create()
    {
        return view('create');
    }

    /**
     * Show the application dashboard.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function store(Request $request)
    {

        $this->validate($request, [
                'filenames' => 'required',
                'filenames.*' => 'mimes:doc,pdf,docx,zip'
        ]);

        if($request->hasfile('filenames'))
         {
            foreach($request->file('filenames') as $file)
            {
                $name = time().'.'.$file->extension();
                $file->move(public_path().'/files/', $name);  
                $data[] = $name;  
            }
         }

         $file= new File();
         $file->filenames=json_encode($data);
         $file->save();

        return back()->with('success', 'Data Your files has been successfully added');
