I'm currently working on a project in Laravel where I need to upload .bin firmware files. I'm facing an issue where Laravel does not seem to recognize the .bin file type correctly.
Upon using dd($this->file), I noticed that the hashName property is null. This seems unusual and might be part of the issue.
What I Need Help With: I'm looking for suggestions or guidance on how to properly handle .bin file uploads in Laravel. Specifically, I need to ensure that the file is correctly identified as a .bin file and stored in the desired directory with the correct name and extension.
Any advice or insights from those who have encountered and resolved similar issues would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help!
@bogdy A .bin file is just a binary file. It has no “type”. There’s nothing to “identify” because a binary file (1s and 0s) could be literally anything.
