Upload files to multiple folders
So, to upload files to multiple folders add the following code inside your controller.
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class UploadController extends Controller
{
/**
* Upload files
*/
public function uploadFile(Request $request) {
//save file into multiple folders
$file = $request->file('file');
$this->saveImageForBackup($file);
$this->saveImageForUser($file);
return redirect()->back()->with([
'message' => 'Picture uploaded successfully',
]);
}
/**
* Save image for user
*/
public function saveImageForUser($file)
{
$file_name = time().'_'.'picture'.'_'.$file->getClientOriginalName();
$file->storeAs('user/images/', $file_name, 'public');
}
/**
* Save image for backup
*/
public function saveImageForBackup($file)
{
$file_name = time().'_'.'picture'.'_'.$file->getClientOriginalName();
$file->storeAs('backup/images/', $file_name, 'public');
}
}
