I'm working on Laravel 7 (using Laragon 4.0 on Windows 10), I have some file download and save from remote urls. Everything was working fine but I had to perform a "php artisan config:clear" to update mysql configuration and after that the images saved in storage/public folder are not served anymore.
The files were there but just not served, then I deleted everything inside /storage/public folder, deleted the symlink inside /public folder to /storage (naturally performing "php artisan storage:link") and populate again /storage/public with folders and file like I did previously. The folder structure is there, the files also but when I try to access them I get 404 error.
I tried "php artisan optimize:clear" and every suggestion I found on stackoverflow but nothing seems to help me, I don't know where to look, please help me.
Here is the code I use to download/save images:
$url = $team["logo"];
$contents = file_get_contents($url);
$name = substr($url, strrpos($url, '/') + 1);
$file = 'public/team/logo/'. $name;
Storage::put('team/logo/'. $name, $contents);
This is how I display images on the view:
<img src="{{Storage::url($team->logo)}}" style="max-width:50px">
This is my public disk configuration on filesystems.php
'public' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public'),
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/storage',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
As your driver is set to
'public' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public'),
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/storage',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
Your Storage::disk('local') is, in absolute terms, set to /storage/app/public. Hence $file = 'public/team/logo/'. $name; becomes $file = 'team/logo/'. $name;
In case you are using the Intervention/Image library, you may consider to change
$contents = file_get_contents($url);
to
$contents = File::make($url);
see http://image.intervention.io/api/make

I've followed the steps of Laracasts, but it's not working.
When I submit the form it returns:
Done: storage/thumbnails/k0TF3NW6WvWWjHuEtZ0OW7TTRQbfSB6lvD1GJls3.png
But I couldn't find it anywhere. My storage/thumbnails is empty.
My Controller:
$path = request()->file('thumbnail')->store('storage/thumbnails');
return 'Done: ' . $path;
My filesystems.php
'default' => env('FILESYSTEM_DRIVER', 'public'),
'public' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public'),
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/storage',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
How can I find the uploaded file? Thanks!
Could you try this code please.
$file = $request->file('thumbnail');
$file_name = uniqid()."_".time().'.'.$file->extension();
$file_location = '/thumbnail/';
$file-> move(storage_path($file_location), $file_name);
I hope the code helps you. Have a good one :)
Have you tried "php artisan storage:link" command?
I am using Laravel Framework 8.62.0 and save uploaded images like the following:
$contents = file_get_contents($imgUrl);
// $file_name = basename($url_upper);
$file_name = strtolower(substr($imgUrl, strrpos($imgUrl, '/') + 1));
$strg = Storage::disk('public_collectible_img')->put($file_name, $contents);
My public_collectible_img-driver looks like the following:
'public_collectible_img' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public/collectibles_img'),
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/collectible/image',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
When I try to open the following url localy I get a 404-error.
http://localhost/my_project/public/collectible/image/1.jpg
The image exists in the folder:
How to access the image and what is the correct url?
I appreciate your replies!
You have to create the a symbolic link between "storage" and "public" folder
To make these files accessible from the web, you should create a
symbolic link from public/storage to storage/app/public.
Run the following artisan code:
php artisan storage:link
Reference: https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/filesystem#the-public-disk
Try to upload my files to storage, and link it with my public folder.
I used
php artisan storage:link
Then, I upload photos like below;
$filename = uniqid().".".$file->getClientOriginalExtension();
$filePath = 'uploads/announcement';
Storage::disk('public')->putFileAs($filePath, $file, $filename, ['visibility' => 'public']);
$announcement->photo = $filename ?? $announcement->filename;
But my /public/storage folder is empty, when I upload files.
Whats wrong with it?
My filesystem.php is below;
'public' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path(),
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/storage',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
this is the way i do it (i n livewire but the storePubliclyAs Is not livewire)
if($this->image != null){
$imageName = time().'.'.$this->image->extension();
$company->image= $imageName;
// on upload l image dans le folder
$this->image->storePubliclyAs('companylogos',$imageName);
}
companylogos is the name of the folder in (storage/app)
i had same problem as you first ! you need to make sure your folder is linked , for that you need to see a little logo on the folder like a link logo meaning that the two folders are sync (linked) , the error is to create both files and try to link them , no you have to create only the storage/app/companylogos folder first and then use artisan to link php artisan storage:link
of course you need to have prepared your file in config filesystems, this is how i did it
'links' => [
public_path('storage') => storage_path('app/public'),
public_path('profilecv') => storage_path('app/profilecv'),
public_path('companylogos') => storage_path('app/companylogos'),
],
I think you have to change file system
filesystem.php is below;
'public' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public'),
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/storage',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
This code is returning an strange error:
$file = Storage::get(Storage::disk('notas_xml')->path('') . 't.txt');
As you can see the file does exist.
Get the file directly from the disk
$exists = Storage::disk('notas_xml')->exists('t.txt');
if ($exists) {
$file = Storage::disk('notas_xml')->get('t.txt');
}
And if you didn't setup notas_xml disk in filesystems.php
$file = Storage::get('public/arquivos/notas_xml/t.txt');
And to use your code, you need to setup a disk like so in config/filesystems.php
'notas_xml' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public/arquivos/notas_xml'),
'url' => env('APP_URL') . '/storage',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
And get the file simply like this
$file = Storage::disk('notas_xml')->get('t.txt');
You need to get the file as below code:
Storage::disk('notas_xml')->has('t.txt');
Above has method may be used to determine if a given file exists on the disk:
Please read documentation https://laravel.com/docs/5.1/filesystem#retrieving-files
To better understand all this... The trick is in: config/filesystems.php
If you have this code (which is the default value of Laravel in Github)
'disks' => [
'local' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app'),
],
This Facade Storage will act in the folders
root_laravel_project/storage/app
So if you want to check if an "israel.txt" file exists
if( Storage::exists('israel.txt') ){
echo "File found. And it exists on the path: root_laravel_project/storage/app/israel.txt";
}
Remember that up to this point it has nothing to do with the symbolic link php artisan storage: link
This symbolic link is only to make a folder called "public" within the "storage" folder be part of the public access through HTTP
'disks' => [
'local' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app'),
],
'public' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public'),
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/storage',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
Then at the time of doing the sym. You can access the files by http (which are public for any user)
This example assumes that you are using a virtual host (and if not, you must do it as a recommendation for work better locally)
http:// root_laravel_project.test/storage/israel-alvarez.txt
Or so that it is better understood as in the old school without a virtual host
http:// localhost/public/storage/israel-alvarez.txt
Then these urls will look inside your folder
root_laravel_project/storage/app/public/israel-alvarez.txt
Laravel's documentation is somewhat brief and can be confusing regarding this issue. But you just have to remember that one thing is to access through the "storage Facade" (which is the correct way to upload and verify if there are files) and another thing is to access through the http (through url) which is the symbolic link (which is the treatment you already give to users to download files or see if it is a PDF for example).
I hope it helps. Good day
I moved my website from localhost to shared hosting all it's good, but i need when i upload file stored directly to public_html: something like this
public_html/storage/
I tried use somenthing like :
symlink('/home/abdoweb/bmcelarave/storage/app/public', '/bmce/public_html/storage')
the problem still exists.
my Controller :
public function addcategory(Request $request){
$title = $request->input('category_name');
$image = $request->file('category-image');
$name = $image->getClientOriginalName();
$image->move(storage_path().'/app/public/category',$name);
$data[] = $name;
$query= DB::table('category')->insert(
[
'title' => $title,
'image' => $name,
"created_at" => Carbon::now()
]);
if($query){
return redirect('categories');
}
}
My folder :
home/abdoweb/{bmcelaravel} <= my public folder
Core laravel :
home/{bmce} <= core laravel
Thank you.
You can a use storage driver :
Inside config/filesystems.php :
'disks' => [
'public' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => public_path() . '/uploads',
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/public',
'visibility' => 'public',
]
]
//Now you can move the file to storage like :
Storage::disk('public')->putFile('category', $request->file('category-image'));
First of all the recommended location for that stuff is to stay on the public path not creating a new one, unless there is an actual reason for that. Did you actually check that the symlink was created?
Laravel has an own command the create a symlink from storage/app/public to public/storage (the storage folder will be generated afterwards):
php artisan storage:link
But if you want to create defaults symlinks you should create one for yourself, like you already did.
This is the symlink pattern:
ln -s target source (fill in your target and source path)
So if you actually get the correct file from your request, this code should work:
Storage::putFile($name, $request->file('category-image'));
For more and detailed infos look into the filesystem documentation
