Laravel 5 - How to access image uploaded in storage within View?

Question

I have got user\'s avatars uploaded in Laravel storage. How can I access them and render them in a view?

The server is pointing all requests to /public,

Answer 1

First of all you need to create a symbolic link for the storage directory using the artisan command

php artisan storage:link

Then in any view you can access your image through url helper like this.

url('storage/avatars/image.png');
