Image Intervention w/ Laravel 5.4 Storage

Question

I\'m using the storage facade to store a avatar which works fine, but I want to resize my image like I did in previous versions of laravel. How can I go about doing this? Here i

Answer 1

Make sure to add use Illuminate\Http\File; to top of your file for this to work, and read through the documentation section Automatic Streaming.

This assumes you want all jpegs

$path   = $request->file('createcommunityavatar');
$resize = Image::make($path)->fit(300)->encode('jpg');
$filePath = $resize->getRealPath() . '.jpg';
$resize->save($filePath);
$store  = Storage::putFile('public/image', new File($resize));
$url    = Storage::url($store);

This is how I am doing it in my application with comments to help

// Get the file from the request
$requestImage = request()->file('image');

// Get the filepath of the request file (.tmp) and append .jpg
$requestImagePath = $requestImage->getRealPath() . '.jpg';

// Modify the image using intervention
$interventionImage = Image::make($requestImage)->resize(125, 125)->encode('jpg');

// Save the intervention image over the request image
$interventionImage->save($requestImagePath);

// Send the image to file storage
$url = Storage::putFileAs('photos', new File($requestImagePath), 'thumbnail.jpg');

return response()->json(['url' => $url]);
