Install Laravel App
First of we need to download laravel fresh setup. Use the below command and download fresh new laravel setup :
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel ImageUpload
Setup Database
After successfully install laravel 6 Application, Go to your project .env file and set up database credential and move next step :
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=here your database name here
DB_USERNAME=here database username here
DB_PASSWORD=here database password here
Generate Migration & Model
Now we will create table name Image and it’s migration file. use the below command :
php artisan make:model Image -m
It command will create one model name Image and also create one migration file for Image table. After successfully run the command go to database/migrations file and put the below here :
<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
class CreateImagesTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create('images', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('image', 80);
$table->timestamps();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('images');
}
}
Next migrate the table using the below command :
php artisan migrate
Make Route
We will create two routes in web.php file. Go to app/routes/web.php file and create two below routes here :
Route::get('multiple-image', '[email protected]');
Route::post('multiple-save', '[email protected]');
Create Controller
We need to create a controller name ImageController. Use the below command and create Controller :
php artisan make:controller ImageController
After successfully create controller go to app/controllers/ImageController.php and put the below code :
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Validator,Redirect,Response,File;
use App\Image;
class ImageController extends Controller
{
public function index()
{
return view('image');
}
public function save(Request $request)
{
request()->validate([
'image' => 'required',
'image.*' => 'image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg|max:2048'
]);
if ($image = $request->file('image')) {
foreach ($image as $files) {
$destinationPath = 'public/image/'; // upload path
$profileImage = date('YmdHis') . "." . $files->getClientOriginalExtension();
$files->move($destinationPath, $profileImage);
$insert[]['image'] = "$profileImage";
}
}
$check = Image::insert($insert);
return Redirect::to("image")->withSuccess('Great! Image has been successfully uploaded.');
}
}
Create Blade view
In this step we need to create blade view file. Go to app/resources/views and create one file name image.blade.php :
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ url('public/cssjs/bootstrap.min.css') }}" />
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<style>
.thumb{
margin: 10px 5px 0 0;
width: 300px;
}
</style>
<body>
<article class="bg-secondary mb-3">
<div class="card-body text-center">
<h4 class="text-white">Laravel Multiple Image Upload Tutorial With Live Preview</h4>
</div>
</article>
<div class="container">
@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>
<br>
@endif
<form id="file-upload-form" class="uploader" action="{{url('save')}}" method="post" accept-charset="utf-8" enctype="multipart/form-data">
@csrf
<input type="file" id="file-input" name="image" multiple />
<span class="text-danger">{{ $errors->first('image') }}</span>
<div id="thumb-output"></div>
<br>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success">Submit</button>
</form>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Put the script on multiple-image.blade.php, after closing of body tag
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#file-input').on('change', function(){ //on file input change
if (window.File && window.FileReader && window.FileList && window.Blob) //check File API supported browser
{
var data = $(this)[0].files; //this file data
$.each(data, function(index, file){ //loop though each file
if(/(\.|\/)(gif|jpe?g|png)$/i.test(file.type)){ //check supported file type
var fRead = new FileReader(); //new filereader
fRead.onload = (function(file){ //trigger function on successful read
return function(e) {
var img = $('<img/>').addClass('thumb').attr('src', e.target.result); //create image element
$('#thumb-output').append(img); //append image to output element
};
})(file);
fRead.readAsDataURL(file); //URL representing the file's data.
}
});
}else{
alert("Your browser doesn't support File API!"); //if File API is absent
}
});
});
</script>
