Step 2: Add Database Details
Step 3: Create Migration & Model

Step 4: Add Routes
Step 5: Create Controller by Artisan
Step 6: Create Blade View

Step 7: Run Development Server
Step 8: Live Demo

Step 1: Install Laravel App For Progress Bar

First of all we need to create a fresh laravel project, download and install Laravel using the below command

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel Blog

1	composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel Blog

Step 2: Add Database Details

Now, lets create a MySQL database and connect it with laravel application. After creating database we need to set database credential in application’s .env file.

DB_CONNECTION=mysql 
 DB_HOST=127.0.0.1 
 DB_PORT=3306 
 DB_DATABASE=here your database name here
 DB_USERNAME=here database username here
 DB_PASSWORD=here database password here

DB_CONNECTION=mysql

DB_HOST=127.0.0.1

DB_PORT=3306

DB_DATABASE=here your database name here

DB_USERNAME=here database username here

DB_PASSWORD=here database password here

Step 3: Create Migration & Model

Now, in this step we will create model and migration file. Please run the following command:

php artisan make:model Doc -m

1	php artisan make:model Doc -m

This command will create one model name Doc.php and as well as one migration file for the Docs table.Now, go to database/migrations folder and open create_docs_table.php. Then update the following code into create_docs_table.php:

<?php
 
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
 
class CreateDocsTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('docs', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->increments('id');
            $table->string('title');
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }
 
    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('docs');
    }
}

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

class CreateDocsTable extends Migration

{

/**

* Run the migrations.

* @return void

public function up()

{

Schema::create('docs', function (Blueprint $table) {

$table->increments('id');

$table->string('title');

$table->timestamps();

});

}

/**

* Reverse the migrations.

* @return void

public function down()

{

Schema::dropIfExists('docs');

}

Now, in this step we will create model and migration file. Please run the following command:

php artisan migrate

1	php artisan migrate

Step 4: Create Route For File

After this, we need to define routes in “routes/web.php” file. Lets open “routes/web.php” file and add the following routes in it.

routes/web.php

Route::get('ajax-file-upload-progress-bar', 'UploadFileController@index');
Route::post('store', 'UploadFileController@store');

1 2	Route::get('ajax-file-upload-progress-bar', 'UploadFileController@index'); Route::post('store', 'UploadFileController@store');

Step 5: Generate Controller by Artisan

Now, lets create a controller named UploadFileController using command given below –

php artisan make:controller UploadFileController

1	php artisan make:controller UploadFileController

The above command will create a controller named UploadFileController.php file.Now go to app/http/controllers/ folder and open UploadFileController.php. Then add the following file uploading methods into your UploadFileController.php file:

<?php
 
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
 
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Doc;
 
class UploadFileController extends Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
        return view('progress-bar-file-upload');
    }
 
    public function store(Request $request)
    {
        $request->validate([
            'file' => 'required',
        ]);
 
       $title = time().'.'.request()->file->getClientOriginalExtension();
  
       $request->file->move(public_path('docs'), $title);
 
       $storeFile = new Doc;
       $storeFile->title = $title;
       $storeFile->save();
  
        return response()->json(['success'=>'File Uploaded Successfully']);
    }
}

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use App\Doc;

class UploadFileController extends Controller

{

public function index()

{

return view('progress-bar-file-upload');

}

public function store(Request $request)

{

$request->validate([

'file' => 'required',

]);

$title = time().'.'.request()->file->getClientOriginalExtension();

$request->file->move(public_path('docs'), $title);

$storeFile = new Doc;

$storeFile->title = $title;

$storeFile->save();

return response()->json(['success'=>'File Uploaded Successfully']);

}

Step 6: Create Blade View

In this step, create one blade view file named progress-bar-file-upload.blade.php. Go to /resources/views and create one file name progress-bar-file-upload.blade.php. Then put the following code into your progress-bar-file-upload.blade.php file:

            bar.width(percentVal)
            percent.html(percentVal);
        },
        uploadProgress: function(event, position, total, percentComplete) {
            var percentVal = percentComplete + '%';
            bar.width(percentVal)
            percent.html(percentVal);

        complete: function(xhr) {
