Answer 1

Try this way.

// getting all of the post data
$files = Input::file('images');

// Making counting of uploaded images
$file_count = count($files);

// start count how many uploaded
$uploadcount = 0;

foreach($files as $file) {
    $rules = array('file' => 'required'); //'required|mimes:png,gif,jpeg,txt,pdf,doc'
    $validator = Validator::make(array('file'=> $file), $rules);
        if($validator->passes()){
            $destinationPath = 'uploads';
                $filename = $file->getClientOriginalName();
                $upload_success = $file->move($destinationPath, $filename);
                $uploadcount ++;
        }
}

if($uploadcount == $file_count){
    //uploaded successfully
}
else {
    //error occurred
}
