public function productSavePicture(Request $request)
{
try {
$validation = Validator::make($request->all(), [
'product_id' => 'required',
]);
if ($validation->fails()) {
throw new \Exception("validation_error", 19);
}
$product_details = product::where('systemid', $request->product_id)->first();
if (!$product_details) {
throw new \Exception('product_not_found', 25);
}
if ($request->hasfile('file')) {
$file = $request->file('file');
$extension = $file->getClientOriginalExtension(); // getting image extension
$company_id = Auth::user()->staff->company_id;
if (!in_array($extension, array(
'jpg', 'JPG', 'png', 'PNG', 'jpeg', 'JPEG', 'gif', 'GIF', 'bmp', 'BMP', 'tiff', 'TIFF'))) {
return abort(403);
}
$filename = ('p' . sprintf("%010d", $product_details->id)) . '-m' . sprintf("%010d", $company_id) . rand(1000, 9999) . '.' . $extension;
$product_id = $product_details->id;
$this->check_location("/images/product/$product_id/");
$file->move(public_path() . ("/images/product/$product_id/"), $filename);
$this->check_location("/images/product/$product_id/thumb/");
$thumb = new thumb();
$dest = public_path() . "/images/product/$product_id/thumb/thumb_" . $filename;
$thumb->createThumbnail(
public_path() . "/images/product/$product_id/" . $filename,
$dest,
200);
$systemid = $request->product_id;
$product_details->photo_1 = $filename;
$product_details->thumbnail_1 = 'thumb_' . $filename;
$product_details->save();
// push image to system on saving
$client = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$url = "http://systemb/api/push_image";
$response = $client->request('POST',$url,[
'headers' => [ ],
'multipart' => [
[
'name' => $filename,
'contents' => file_get_contents($product_details->getPath()),
],
],
]);
} else {
return abort(403);
}
} catch (\Exception $e) {
if ($e->getMessage() == 'validation_error') {
return '';
}
if ($e->getMessage() == 'product_not_found') {
$msg = "Error occured while uploading, Invalid product selected";
}
{
$msg = "Error occured while uploading picture";
}
$data = view('layouts.dialog', compact('msg'));
}
return $data;
}
i am getting the error "Error occured while uploading picture" but the error is saved in systema but its unabe to be pushed in systemb..i havent understood where i have gone wrong with my code base but i guess that part on guzzle isnt being executed because the data is being saved in systema but its unable to be pushed to systemb.what might be the issue here

Answer 1

Your class Product doesnt have the method getPath() declared
file_get_contents($product_details->getPath())
Change it so it uses the path you used above that line
file_get_contents(public_path() . "/images/product/$product_id/".$filename)
