Uploading files with infyom generator - laravel

Question

I am trying to upload a file with laravel using the code generated by the infyom generator. The file seems to be uploaded but this is what is shown on the application when I view the report (C:\xampp\tmp\php7925.tmp). Provided below is the code for my application.
Thank you so much and really appreciate the help in this project.
rgds,
Form
<!-- Inf File Field -->
<div class="form-group col-sm-6">
{!! Form::label('inf_file', 'Attachments:') !!}
{!! Form::file('inf_file') !!}
</div>
Controller
{
$input = $request->all();
$infrastructure = $this->infrastructureRepository->create($input);
$file = $request->file('inf_file');
$file = $request->inf_file;
if ($request->hasFile('inf_file')){
//
if ($request->file('inf_file')->isValid()){
}
}
Flash::success('Infrastructure saved successfully.');
return redirect(route('infrastructures.index'));
}

Answer 1

This is how you display when you view your records,
<!-- Inf File Field -->
<div class="form-group">
{!! Form::label('inf_file', 'Attachements:') !!}
<a download href="{{ asset($infrastructure->inf_file) }}">Download</a>
</div>

Managed to solve it.
public function store(CreateinfrastructureRequest $request)
{
$input = $request->all();
if ($request->hasFile('inf_file')){
//Validate the uploaded file
$Validation = $request->validate([
'inf_file' => 'required|file|mimes:pdf|max:30000'
]);
// cache the file
$file = $Validation['inf_file'];
// generate a new filename. getClientOriginalExtension() for the file extension
$filename = 'Infras-' . time() . '.' . $file->getClientOriginalExtension();
// save to storage/app/infrastructure as the new $filename
$InfrasFileName = $file->storeAs('infrastructure', $filename);
$path = "/storage/app/public/".$InfrasFileName;
}
$input['inf_file'] = $path;
$infrastructure = $this->infrastructureRepository->create($input);
Flash::success('Infrastructure saved successfully. ' . $path);
return redirect(route('infrastructures.index'));
}
