Image source not readable in Laravel 5.2 - Intervention Image

Question

I have a small problem concerning the resizing process of a given image, I am trying to submit a form containing an input type -->file<-- I was able to upload a picture witho

Answer 1

Uploading a file and resizing it before saving is as easy as that: (Without validation or checks)

You can directly pass an instance of UploadedFile to InterventionImage::make()

public function upload(Request $request)
{
    $file = $request->file('file');

    $filename = $file->getClientOriginalName();

    $img = \Image::make($file);
    $img->resize(320, 240)->save(public_path('uploads/'.$filename))

}

If you want to save original size and resized image:

    $img->save(public_path('uploads/'.$filename))
        ->resize(320, 240)
        ->save(public_path('uploads/thumb_'.$filename));

This was just tested on currently latest 5.2 version with is 5.2.45

[EDIT:]

If you call

$file->move();

Don't use

$file->getRealPath() 

afterwards, because this will return false after calling move()

    $filename = $file->getClientOriginalName();
    $file->move('uploads', $filename);
    dd($file->getRealPath());
