php - How to upload multiple image in laravel

Question

I am trying to upload multiple images in a single row in a database table and access them in a show page.I have tried this tutorial: laraveldaily.com/upload-multiple-files-laravel-5-4/ but there two different tables are made and a relation is established.

I want this to happen in a single table.

Answer 1

here is what worked best for me:

first do this in your form:

<form class="form-horizontal" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="/details">

and this for multiple selection:

<input required type="file" class="form-control" name="images[]" placeholder="address" multiple>

Now do this in your controller:

public function store(request $request) {

    $input=$request->all();
    $images=array();
    if($files=$request->file('images')){
        foreach($files as $file){
            $name=$file->getClientOriginalName();
            $file->move('image',$name);
            $images[]=$name;
        }
    }
    /*Insert your data*/

    Detail::insert( [
        'images'=>  implode("|",$images),
        'description' =>$input['description'],
        //you can put other insertion here
    ]);


    return redirect('redirecting page');
}

Hope this works
