So you have to simply follow bellow steps and get the file upload in laravel 9 application.
Step 1: Install Laravel 9
This step is not required; however, if you have not created the laravel app, then you may go ahead and execute the below command:
In this step, we will create a new FileController; in this file, we will add two method index() and store() for render view and store file logic.
Let's create FileController by following command:
php artisan make:controller FileController
next, let's update the following code to Controller File.
app/Http/Controllers/FileController.php
<?php namespace App\Http\Controllers; use Illuminate\Http\Request; class FileController extends Controller{ /** * Display a listing of the resource. * * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response */ public function index() { return view('fileUpload'); } /** * Display a listing of the resource. * * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response */ public function store(Request $request) { $request->validate([ 'file' => 'required|mimes:pdf,xlx,csv|max:2048', ]); $fileName = time().'.'.$request->file->extension(); $request->file->move(public_path('uploads'), $fileName); /* Write Code Here for Store $fileName name in DATABASE from HERE */ return back() ->with('success','You have successfully upload file.') ->with('file', $fileName); }}
Furthermore, open routes/web.php file and add the routes to manage GET and POST requests for render view and store file logic.
routes/web.php
<?php use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route; use App\Http\Controllers\FileController; /*|--------------------------------------------------------------------------| Web Routes|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!|*/ Route::get('file-upload', [FileController::class, 'index']);Route::post('file-upload', [FileController::class, 'store'])->name('file.store');
Step 4: Create Blade File
At last step we need to create fileUpload.blade.php file and in this file we will create form with file input button. So copy bellow and put on that file.
