in laravel controller i am trying to give each video file i uploading should be rename as
**myfile.mp4**
and save in public folder.
but my present code makes random number for my files but i need to give name as myfile
my controller
$input['file_id'] = time() . '.' . $request->file_id->getClientOriginalExtension();
$folder1 = public_path('/public');
$path1 = $folder1 . $input['file_id']; // path 1
$request->file_id->move($folder1, $input['file_id']);
What you want is :
$input['file_id'] = 'myfile.'.$request->file_id->getClientOriginalExtension();
But you cannot give the same name 'myfile' to all your videos because each recording will be overwritten by the previous one, you need unique names.
For this you can do, for example:
$input['file_id'] = 'myfile'.time().'.'.$request->file_id->getClientOriginalExtension();
// here, time() represents the time at which the video was saved in your '/public' file
or
$input['file_id'] = 'myfile'.date().'.'.$request->file_id->getClientOriginalExtension();
// here, date() represents the date the video was saved in your '/public' file

I'm trying to store image in 3 different folder inside public folder now I'm able to store in two different folder but when I added 3rd folder path but it was not coping in 3rd folder help me to solve this.
my two folder copying Working code
$input['student_photo'] = time().'.'.$request->student_photo->getClientOriginalExtension();
$folder1 = public_path('public/path1/');
$path1 = $folder1 . $input['student_photo']; // path 1
$request->student_photo->move($folder1, $input['student_photo']); // image saved in first folder
$path2 = public_path('public/path2/') . $input['student_photo']; // path 2
\File::copy($path1, $path2);
I tired this code for copy 3rd folder but not working
$input['student_photo'] = time().'.'.$request->student_photo->getClientOriginalExtension();
$folder1 = public_path('public/path1/');
$path1 = $folder1 . $input['student_photo']; // path 1
$request->student_photo->move($folder1, $input['student_photo']); // image saved in first folder
$path2 = public_path('public/path2/') . $input['student_photo']; // path 2
$path3 = public_path('public/path3/') . $input['student_photo']; // path 3
\File::copy($path1, $path2, $path3);
\File::copy($path1, $path2);
\File::copy($path1, $path3);
I'm using this command to upload the file to Google Drive (store function in controller):
$request->anexo->storeAs('1tD*******************-6', $file_name, 'google');
And this to get the link:
$link = Storage::disk('google')->url('1tD*******************-6/' . $file_name);
This is working fine. But when i try to delete the file i can't find it in the destroy function in the same controller. I've tried the commands below and all of them return false:
$att = OrdemAttachment::findOrFail($id);
$link = Storage::disk('google')->url('1tD*******************-6/' . $att->file_name);
// dd($link);
$exists = Storage::disk('google')->has('1tD*******************-6/' . $att->file_name);
// dd($exists);
$delete = Storage::disk('google')->delete('1tD*******************-6/' . $att->file_name);
// dd($delete);
Is there another command that must be used instead of these?
I figured it out, I was trying to use the file name and even tried to use the google drive link. But what worked was using the file id (you can find the id inside the link). So, for example, if the link to the file is https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1AgF87s1lw9TSsRhVOpGNJ2K6wq3A8FzD&export=media, to delete the file in google drive with the id would go like this:
$delete = Storage::disk('google')->delete('1tD*******************-6/1AgF87s1lw9TSsRhVOpGNJ2K6wq3A8FzD');
1tD*******************-6 is the subfolder id and 1AgF87s1lw9TSsRhVOpGNJ2K6wq3A8FzD is the id of the file extracted from the link.
I have a Laravel 5.3 app that has a form which users can upload multiple files using multiple file fields. The form work in that the files can be uploaded and moed to the destinationPath as I expect but I can't seem to change each of the files 'filename' values. It keeps saving the filename value as the php**.tmp.
Here is the foreach in my controller;
$files = $request->files;
foreach($files as $file){
$destinationPath = 'images/forms'; // upload path
$filename = $file->getClientOriginalName(); // get image name
$file->move($destinationPath, $filename); // uploading file to given path
$file->filename = $filename;
}
If I dd($filename) and dd($file->filename) within the foreach I do get the value (original name) I am looking for but if I dd($files) outside that foreach, the filename is set as the temp php value.
What am I missing? Thanks.
EDIT
The file object looks like this;
-test: false
-originalName: "sample_header_1280.png"
-mimeType: "image/png"
-size: 51038
-error: 0
path: "C:\xampp\tmp"
filename: "php7240.tmp"
basename: "php7240.tmp"
pathname: "C:\xampp\tmp\php7240.tmp"
extension: "tmp"
realPath: "C:\xampp\tmp\php7240.tmp"
I am trying to save the originalName to the db but it seems to default to saving the filename.
Turns out using a foreach for Input::file is not he approach here. If uploading multiple files from the same field - then you'd use a foreach to loop, move and save.
To upload files from multiple file inputs on the same form all you need to do is treat each input individually - as you might with any other form.
In my example I did this in my controller;
$data['image1'] = Input::file('image1')->getClientOriginalName();
Input::file('image1')->move($destinationPath, $data['image1']);
$data['image2'] = Input::file('image2')->getClientOriginalName();
Input::file('image2')->move($destinationPath, $data['image2']);
Not sure this is the best approach (there's always another way) but it worked for me.
I can change my code to save the uploaded image in the public dir but not when I want to their uploaded image in a folder as their company's name. For example of what works:
/public/company_img/<filename>.jpg
If the user's company name is Foo, I want this when they save save their uploaded image:
/public/company_img/foo/<filename>.jpg
This is in my controller:
$image = Input::file('company_logo');
$filename = $image->getClientOriginalName();
$path = public_path('company_img/' . Auth::user()->company_name . '/' . $filename);
// I am saying to create the dir if it's not there.
File::exists($path) or File::makeDirectory($path); // this seems to be the issue
// saving the file
Image::make($image->getRealPath())->resize('280', '200')->save($path);
Just looking at that you can easily see what it's doing. My logs shows nothing and the browser goes blank after I hit the update button. Any ideas
File::exists($path) or File::makeDirectory($path);
This line does not make sense, as you check if a file exists and if not you want to attempt to create a folder ( in your $path variable you saved a path to a file not to a directory )
I would do something like that:
// directory name relative to public_path()
$dir = public_path("company_img/username"); // set your own directory name there
$filename = "test.jpg"; // get your own filename here
$path = $dir."/".$filename;
// check if $folder is a directory
if( ! \File::isDirectory($dir) ) {
// Params:
// $dir = name of new directory
//
// 493 = $mode of mkdir() function that is used file File::makeDirectory (493 is used by default in \File::makeDirectory
//
// true -> this says, that folders are created recursively here! Example:
// you want to create a directory in company_img/username and the folder company_img does not
// exist. This function will fail without setting the 3rd param to true
// http://php.net/mkdir is used by this function
\File::makeDirectory($dir, 493, true);
}
// now save your image to your $path
But i really can't say your behaviour has something to do with that... Without error messages, we can only guess.
I'm trying to make a image upload in lavarel 4. The upload passes by
The file "C:\xampp\tmp\phpD1F3.tmp" does not exist
This is my upload code :
$file = Input::file('image');
// Get extension
$extension =$file->getClientOriginalExtension();
// Generate a file name
$fileName = 'pool' . Str::quickRandom();
$fileNameExtension = $fileName . '.' . $extension;
// Process upload
Input::file('image')->move(public_path() . '/uploads/images/app/pools/original/', $fileNameExtension);
`
I don't know why i get this error , please can anyone help me to solve this?
You are probably making some operations on "uploaded" file after moving it to server by move() function. Please make sure there is no operation made on temporary file after calling Input::file('image')->move() function.
