Laravel filesystems storage path

#laravel #storatge

I personally stuck on the point where I created projects and forgot to change the path from storage to public. Actually, I wanted to store the file(images) in the image folder that was created in the root.

This is what we see in the filesystems.php file

'disks' => [ 'local' => [ 'driver' => 'local', 'root' => storage_path('app'), ], 'public' => [ 'driver' => 'local', 'root' => storage_path('img'), 'url' => env('APP_URL').'/img', 'visibility' => 'public', ], 's3' => [ 'driver' => 's3', 'key' => env('AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'), 'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'), 'region' => env('AWS_DEFAULT_REGION'), 'bucket' => env('AWS_BUCKET'), 'url' => env('AWS_URL'), ], ],
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Making your own way to stare the images. You can change the path by ...

'public' => [ 'driver' => 'local', 'root' => storage_path('img'), 'url' => env('APP_URL').'/img', 'visibility' => 'public', ],
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

In the 'root' => storage_path('img), You can change it like these

base_path(); // '/var/www/mysite' app_path(); // '/var/www/mysite/app' storage_path(); // '/var/www/mysite/storage'
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
