Larave 5.2 - File Upload not work

enctype="multipart/form-data" add this to your form in order to be able to upload files ...

Hello @d3xt3r

I updated my Form header.

<form action="/photo/upload" files=true enctype="multipart/form-data"  method="post">

But even with the entry I receive "null"

Oh, i see you are using some package, they probably do some form manipulation before its posted, you will have to resort to their methods in backend(php) as well.

dd($request->all()) ; to check what actually is being passed. with normal form it should look like this

array:1 [▼
  "slim" => UploadedFile {#145 ▶}
]

This i have, but i came many text more... When i make now with $request->file('slim') then i cam null...

array:2 [▼
  "_token" => "Gi3Uip2kiwWaEM3QojNg2AbUix5xjbAYNSyOrnjb"
  "slim" => "{"server":null,"meta":null,"input":{"name":"butterfly-wallpaper.jpeg","type":"image/jpeg","size":1584719,"width":2560,"height":1600},"output":{"width":240,"height":240,"image":"data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQAAAQABAAD/2wBDAAMCAgICAgMCAgIDAwMDBAYEBAQEBAgGBgUGCQgKCgkICQkKDA8MCgsOCwkJDRENDg8QEBEQCgwSExIQEw8QEBD/2wBDAQMDAwQDBAgEBAgQCwkLEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBD/wAARCADwAPADASIAAhEBAxEB/8QAHwAAAQUBAQEBAQEAAAAAAAAAAAECAwQFBgcICQoL/8QAtRAAAgEDAwIEAwUFBAQAAAF9AQIDAAQRBRIhMUEGE1FhByJxFDKBkaEII0KxwRVS0fAkM2JyggkKFhcYGRolJicoKSo0NTY3ODk6Q0RFRkdISUpTVFVWV1hZWmNkZWZnaGlqc3R1dnd4eXqDhIWGh4iJipKTlJWWl5iZmqKjpKWmp6ipqrKztLW2t7i5usLDxMXGx8jJytLT1NX

Just something I noticed, not a solution to your problem though, in your opening form you're using:

files=true

But that only works with the Form:: Facade, so like:

{{ Form::open(array('url' => route('store'), 'method' => 'post', 'files'=> true)) }}

And that will translate to:

<form action="/photo/upload"enctype="multipart/form-data"  method="post">

Hello RonB1985

Thanks for your message.

i change this with the Collective Form...

{{ Form::open(array('url' => route('artist.photo.store'), 'method' => 'post', 'files'=> true)) }}

My Form is now ...

<div class="modal-body">
    {{ Form::open(array('url' => route('artist.photo.store'), 'method' => 'post', 'files'=> true)) }}
        {!! Form::token() !!}
            <div class="slim" data-label="Drop your avatar here" data-size="240,240" data-ratio="1:1">
                <input type="file" name="slim[]" required />
            </div>
            </div> <!-- /.modal-body -->
            <div class="modal-footer">
                  <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Abbrechen</button>
                  <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Speichern</button>
            </div>
    {!! Form::close() !!}
</div>

Result with $request->all():

array:2 [▼
  "_token" => "Gi3Uip2kiwWaEM3QojNg2AbUix5xjbAYNSyOrnjb"
  "slim" => array:1 [▼
    0 => "{"server":null,"meta":null,"input":{"name":"butterfly-wallpaper.jpeg","type":"image/jpeg","size":1584719,"width":2560,"height":1600},"output":{"width":240,"height":240,"image":"data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQAAAQABAAD/2wBDAAMCAgICAgMCAgIDAwMDBAYEBAQEBAgGBgUGCQ.....

With $request->file('slim');

null

With $request->file('slim[]');

null

Oh, i see you are using some package, they probably do some form manipulation before its posted, you will have to resort to their methods in backend(php) as well.

As i mentioned, if you are using a plugin, $request->file() may not work, and seeing the dd() of your request, it definitely wont. Check the package for the methods they have to access the file.

Thank you for your help. I can found the failure. I work for upload with slim upload (Project on CodeCanyon), the problem was the js file form this.

With the normal Code it works exactly.

<input type="file" name="slim[]" required />

Your answers led me to the idea
