Laravel 5.4: how to delete a file stored in storage/app

Question

I want to delete a file that is stored in storage/app/myfolder/file.jpg. I have tried the following codes but none of this works:

use File    
$file_path = u         


        

Answer 1

The delete method accepts a single filename or an array of files to remove from the disk:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;

Storage::delete('file.jpg');

Storage::delete(['file.jpg', 'file2.jpg']);

If necessary, you may specify the disk that the file should be deleted from:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;

Storage::disk('s3')->delete('folder_path/file_name.jpg');

Delete A Directory

Finally, the deleteDirectory method may be used to remove a directory and all of its files:

Storage::deleteDirectory($directory);
