Resize image in Laravel 5.2

Question

Can anyone help me how to implement resizing image in Laravel?

I have this code only:

if($request->hasFile(\'image\')){
    if (Input::file(\'imag         


        

Answer 1

Laravel does not have a default resize of image. But most Laravel developers use 'Image intervention' in handling the image. It is easy to use.

To install (Image intervention):

STEP 1 Run

composer require intervention/image

STEP 2 On your config/app.php:

In the $providers array, add the following:

Intervention\Image\ImageServiceProvider::class

In the $aliases array,add the following:

'Image' => Intervention\Image\Facades\Image::class

If you have problems your GD library is missing, install it

• PHP5: sudo apt-get install php5-gd
• PHP7: sudo apt-get install php7.0-gd

To use on your controller.

STEP 3

On top of your controller

use Intervention\Image\ImageManagerStatic as Image;

STEP 4

On your method (there are several ways but this will give you an idea)

if($request->hasFile('image')) {

    $image       = $request->file('image');
    $filename    = $image->getClientOriginalName();

    $image_resize = Image::make($image->getRealPath());              
    $image_resize->resize(300, 300);
    $image_resize->save(public_path('images/ServiceImages/' .$filename));

}
