BadMethodCallException in FileUpload example

tutsmake dot com website, article: laravel-8-file-upload-tutorial

Method Illuminate Validation Validator validatePdf does not exist.

It says it all there. validatePdf method doesn't exist.

I know it, but I don't have validatePdf method in my code. In my store() function I have the following code

public function store(Request $request)
{
    // echo $request;
    $validatedData = $request->validate([
     'file' => 'required|pdf|max:2048',

    ]);

    // echo $validatedData;

    $name = $request->file('file')->getClientOriginalName();

    $path = $request->file('file')->store('public/files');


    $save = new File;

    $save->name = $name;
    $save->path = $path;

    return redirect('file-upload')->with('status', 'File Has been uploaded successfully in laravel 8');

}

Check the docs.

How I said validation rule pdf doesn't exist.

Try:

'file' => 'required|mimes:pdf|max:2048',

Why people don't read a documentation...

It's so simple.

Thanks, it seems working. Now, another problem occurs. The upload doesn't make errors, but the file isn't moved to the folder and no updates in the status ("File Has been uploaded successfully in laravel 8"). Have u any idea?

I have an idea, start learning.

@fmaglia please close this discussion and open a new one. Thanks.

@michaloravec I agree, the best thing developer can learn is to read error logs, debug backtrace and read the docs.
