@deshiloh I believe you are doing it right, but have you checked it the merge works properly?
What if you try before the create on the model to dump dd($request->except(['_token']));?
Or try replacing merge with add.

Upload store file return wrong path
Hi ! I'm trying to upload a image file, that work, but my problem is in the documentation, i read that the UploadedFile store method return the path where file was uploaded.
Here my script :
public function store(StoreLunch $request)
{
$request->validated();
if ($request->hasFile('picture')) {
$request->merge([
'picture' => $request->file('picture')->store('lunches', 'public')
]);
}
Lunch::create($request->except(['_token']));
return redirect()->route('lunches.index')->with('success', "Lunch created !");
}
In the database the value i have :
/tmp/phpe1pHmK
Am I doing something wrong ?

Ok the dd give me the right path, my $request doesn't have add method, perhaps because it's a custom request.
The problem was the method tool the UploadedFile and not the path i gave, i didn't find any method to replace the picture in $request
so i did like this :
public function store(StoreLunch $request)
{
$request->validated();
$datas = $request->except(['_token', 'picture']);
if ($request->hasFile('picture')) {
$datas['picture'] = $request->file('picture')->store('lunches');
}
Lunch::create($datas);
return redirect()->route('lunches.index')->with('success', "Lunch created !");
}
It worked but i have the feeling i do that in a dirty way ^^'
