Laravel Livewire Image Upload From Scratch

Step 1: Install Laravel App
Step 2: Add Database Detail

Step 3: Create Model & Migration using Artisan
Step 4: Install Livewire Package
Step 5: Create Component using Artisan

Step 6: Add Route
Step 7: Create View File
Step 8: Run Development Server

Step 1: Install Laravel App

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 Detail

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 Model & Migration using Artisan

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

php artisan make:model Image -m

1	php artisan make:model Image -m

The above command will create a model name Image.php and also create a migration that name create_images_table.php. Now go to database/migrations folder and open create_images_table.php file. Then put the following code into create_images_table.php file

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

<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

class CreateImagesTable extends Migration

{

/**

* Run the migrations.

* @return void

public function up()

{

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

$table->bigIncrements('id');

$table->string('title');

$table->timestamps();

});

}

/**

* Reverse the migrations.

* @return void

public function down()

{

Schema::dropIfExists('images');

}

Then go to app\Providers folder and open AppServiceProvider.php file. And put the following code into AppServiceProvider.php file:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
  
 public function boot()
 {
     Schema::defaultStringLength(191);
 }

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

public function boot()

{

Schema::defaultStringLength(191);

}

Now run the following command to create the table into your database:

php artisan migrate

1	php artisan migrate

Now, Open App/Image.php file and put the fillable properties:

<?php
   
namespace App;
   
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
   
class Image extends Model
{
     /**
     * The attributes that are mass assignable.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $fillable = [
        'title'
    ];
}

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Image extends Model

{

/**

* The attributes that are mass assignable.

* @var array

protected $fillable = [

'title'

];

}

Step 4: Install Livewire Package

In this step, we will install livewire Package via the composer dependency manager. Use the following command to install livewire Package.

composer require livewire/livewire

1	composer require livewire/livewire

Step 5: Create Component using Artisan

In this step we will create a component using following command:

php artisan make:livewire upload-image

1	php artisan make:livewire upload-image

The above command will create the following components on the following path:

app/Http/Livewire/UploadImage.php
resources/views/livewire/upload-image.blade.php

1 2	app/Http/Livewire/UploadImage.php resources/views/livewire/upload-image.blade.php

Now, go to app/Http/Livewire folder and open UploadImage.php file. Then add the following code into your UploadImage.php file:

<?php
 
namespace App\Http\Livewire;
 
use Livewire\Component;
use Livewire\WithFileUploads;
use App\Image;
 
class UploadImage extends Component
{
    use WithFileUploads;
 
    public $image;
 
    public function render()
    {
        return view('livewire.upload-image');
    }
   
    public function submit()
    {
        $validatedData = $this->validate([
            'image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,svg,jpg,gif|max:1024',
        ]);
 
        $imageName = $this->image->store("images",'public');
 
        $validatedData['title'] = $imageName;
 
        Image::create($validatedData);
   
        session()->flash('message', 'Image has been successfully Uploaded.');
 
        return redirect()->to('/laravel-livewire-upload-image');
    }
 
}

<?php

namespace App\Http\Livewire;

use Livewire\Component;

use Livewire\WithFileUploads;

use App\Image;

class UploadImage extends Component

{

use WithFileUploads;

public $image;

public function render()

{

return view('livewire.upload-image');

}

public function submit()

{

$validatedData = $this->validate([

'image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,svg,jpg,gif|max:1024',

]);

$imageName = $this->image->store("images",'public');

$validatedData['title'] = $imageName;

Image::create($validatedData);

session()->flash('message', 'Image has been successfully Uploaded.');

return redirect()->to('/laravel-livewire-upload-image');

}

Now, go to resources/views/livewire folder and open upload-image.blade.php file. Then put the following code into your upload-image.blade.php file:

@if (session()->has('message'))
    <div class="alert alert-success">
        {{ session('message') }}
    </div>
@endif
 
<form wire:submit.prevent="submit" enctype="multipart/form-data">
     
    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="exampleInputName">Image</label>
        <input type="file" class="form-control" id="exampleInputName" wire:model="image">
        @error('image') <span class="text-danger">{{ $message }}</span> @enderror
    </div>
 
     <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Save</button>
</form>

@if (session()->has('message'))

</div>

@endif

<label for="exampleInputName">Image</label>

@error('image') <span class="text-danger">{{ $message }}</span> @enderror

</div>

</form>

Step 6: Add Route

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::view('laravel-livewire-upload-image','livewire.home');

1	Route::view('laravel-livewire-upload-image','livewire.home');

Step 7: Create View File

In this step, go to resources/views/livewire folder and create a blade files name home.blade.php file. Then put the following code into your home.blade.php file:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="{{ str_replace('_', '-', app()->getLocale()) }}">
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">
        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

            .links > a {
