Laravel - link to a file saved in storage folder

Question

When we do something like this:

Storage::disk(\'local\')->put(\'file.txt\', \'Contents\');

How do you make a link to that file in a view

Answer 1

UPDATE:

According to laravel docs, You can get the URL to the file like this:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;

$url = Storage::url('file1.jpg');

Remember, if you are using the local driver, all files that should be publicly accessible should be placed in the storage/app/public directory. Furthermore, you should create a symbolic link at public/storage which points to the storage/app/public directory.

Hope this helps!
