How to storage upload an image and save in database?

did you see the image in the $request?

public function store(CategoryRequest $request)
{
    dd($request);

and can you show the form code

and what about you need update the image in the update method ?

what showing inside the +request:

or always return false?

public function store(CategoryRequest $request)
{
    dd($request->hasFile('image'));

show the form code

It show true;

@oxbir Try this and let me know

    if ($request->hasFile('image')) {
	$originalname = $request->image->getClientOriginalName();

        $extension = $request->image->extension();

        $uploadpath = $request->image->storeAs('images/categories', $originalname, 'public');
    }
Category::create([
        'name' => $request->name,
        'latin' => $request->latin,
        'parent_id' => $request->parent_id,
        'image' => $originalname,
    ]);
    return redirect()->route('categories.index');

I tried this and it does not uploads and does not save in database.

public function store(CategoryRequest $request)
{
	$path = null;
	if ($request->hasFile('image'))
	{
		$file = $request->file('image');
		$nane = time();
		$extension = $file->getClientOriginalExtension();
		$fileName = $nane . '.' . $extension;
		$path = $file->storeAs('images/categories', $fileName);
		
		// just in case you want save to other disk
		//$path = $file->storeAs('images/categories', $fileName, 'disk_name');
	}
	
    Category::create([
        'name' => $request->name,
        'latin' => $request->latin,
        'parent_id' => $request->parent_id,
        'image' => $path,
    ]);
    return redirect()->route('categories.index');
}

why are you overwriting first $path variable.... just dd($path) and see which one gives out correct url for your images.

I tried this and it does upload and does not save in database.

Edit: well, weird.. the table 'image' column is varchar type and nullable ?

change the 3 $path to $imagePath

and

dd($imagePath);

Category::create([

It show "images/categories/1599840182.jpg"

What you mean

it does upload and does not save in database.

Database saves just directory path. You may read this article

The image field in database is now null

no idea why still is null

in your model any

protected $casts = .......

// or

protected $attributes = .......

// or any Mutator ?

    public function setImageAttribute()
    {
        $this->attributes['image'] = ......
    }

if all not, make sure in the model have

protected $fillable = ['image'];

and try to get the new inserted record

	$category =	Category::create([
			'name' => $request->name,
			'latin' => $request->latin,
			'parent_id' => $request->parent_id,
			'image' => $imagePath,
		]);
		
	dd($category);
    return redirect()->route('categories.index');

if still can't. show the table migration
