How to use Redactor image upload in laravel 4? - laravel

Question

I am trying to use Redactor with Laravel4. I can succesfully edit my textarea but I cant get to work with image uploads. When I try to upload a file I get 500 error and In developer tools , I can see
Request URL:http://projemiz.dev/admin/blogs/3/postimage/3
This is my link for redactor photo upload:
<script>$('#editor').redactor({ imageUpload: "postimage/{{$post->id}}"});</script>
My routes are inside prefixes :
# Blog Management
Route::group(array('prefix' => 'blogs'), function()
{
Route::get('/', array('as' => 'blogs', 'uses' => 'Controllers\Admin\BlogsController#getIndex'));
Route::get('create', array('as' => 'create/blog', 'uses' => 'Controllers\Admin\BlogsController#getCreate'));
Route::post('create', 'Controllers\Admin\BlogsController#postCreate');
Route::get('{blogId}/edit', array('as' => 'update/blog', 'uses' => 'Controllers\Admin\BlogsController#getEdit'));
Route::post('{blogId}/edit', 'Controllers\Admin\BlogsController#postEdit');
Route::post('{blogId}/postimage','Controllers\Admin\BlogsController#postImage');
Route::get('{blogId}/delete', array('as' => 'delete/blog', 'uses' => 'Controllers\Admin\BlogsController#getDelete'));
});
and my controller is :
public function postImage($blogId) {
$path = base_path().'/public/uploads/img/posts/' . (int)$blogId;
$image = Input::file('photo');
if (Input::hasFile('photo'))
{
$fileName = $file->getClientOriginalName();
$image->move($path,$fileName);
$image = new Image;
$image->name = $fileName.name;
$image->save();
// resizing an uploaded file
Image::make($image->getRealPath())->resize(300, 200)->save($path.'thumb-'.$fileName);
Image::make($image->getRealPath())->resize(300, 200)->save($path.'thumb-'.$fileName);
//File::delete( $path . '/' . Input::file('file.name'));*/
}
}
Can anyone help me to fix my link inside redactor?

Try changing your js-script this:
<script>$('#editor').redactor({ imageUpload: "/{{$post->id}}/postimage"});</script>
In the upload function return the path of the image after upload
public function postImage($blogId)
{
$path = base_path().'/public/uploads/img/posts/' . (int)$blogId;
$image = Input::file('photo');
if (Input::hasFile('photo'))
{
$fileName = $file->getClientOriginalName();
$image->move($path,$fileName);
$image = new Image;
$image->name = $fileName.name;
$image->save();
// resizing an uploaded file
Image::make($image->getRealPath())->resize(300, 200)->save($path.'thumb-'.$fileName);
Image::make($image->getRealPath())->resize(300, 200)->save($path.'thumb-'.$fileName);
// Return Image path as JSON
if ($file->move($path, $fileName))
{
return Response::json(array('filelink' => $path . '/' . $fileName));
}
}
}
