AngularJS POST File-Upload to Laravel

I'm building an angularjs application with laravel as the backend. Does someone know how to upload a file (or in future multiple files with d&d) and get it in the laravel backend to check the file and store it? I also need the original name of the uploaded file...

I've already created the route, the controller and the upload method...

Can someone help me? Many thanks!

Most of what you're seeking is covered here https://laracasts.com/series/build-project-flyer-with-me Except de Angular part, but that shouldn't be an issue if you know what you're doing.

Hi Bloomanity

Thanks, upload works now (problem was the AngularjS frontend...). But bigger problem for me is the download:

return response()->make(Storage::get($filepath), 200, [
            'Content-Type' => Storage::mimeType($filepath),
            'Content-Disposition' => 'attachement;'. $filepath,
        ]);

The API returns just a path /tmp/xxxxx but doesn't download the file. I'm pretty sure that I have to start the download in the AngularJS frontend... Someone know how to do this? I tried some solutions, but nothing works...

Thanks for your help!
