I am trying to do registration with user profile picture upload.(I am forced to do it this way) I created the migration like this:
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('nom');
$table->string('prenom');
$table->string('type')->default('visiteur');
$table->boolean('confirme')->default(false);
$table->string('email')->unique();
$table->string('password');
$table->string('photo_url')->default('default_photo_profile.jpg');
$table->rememberToken();
$table->timestamps();
});
the create function :
$request = request();
if ($request->hasFile('photo')) {
$file = $request->file('photo');
$fullname=$data['nom'].'_'.date("Y-m-d",time()).'.'.$file->getClientOriginalExtension();
$path = $request->file('photo')->storeAs('images', $fullname);
}
return User::create([
'nom' => $data['nom'],
'prenom' => $data['prenom'],
'email' => $data['email'],
'photo_url' => $fullname,
'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),
]);
}
and the form for the file field is like this:
<div class="form-group">
<label for="photo_url">Photo profile</label>
<input type="file" name="photo" class="form-control-file" id="photo_url">
</div>
everything is working fine except the photo_url field, it always sets the default value in the migration and not the value I set in the create function. $fullname is initiated and already declared.
the entire form :
<form method="POST" action="{{ route('register') }}" aria-label="{{ __('Register') }}" enctype="multipart/form-data">
@csrf
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="nom" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-right">Nom</label>
<div class="col-md-6">

@if ($errors->has('nom'))
<span class="invalid-feedback" role="alert">
<strong>{{ $errors->first('nom') }}</strong>
</span>
@endif
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="prenom" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-right">Prénom</label>
<div class="col-md-6">

What is the problem?
so according to your code in your model you have to add the photo_url in $fillable array like below.
$fillables = ['nom','prenom','type','confirme','email','password','photo_url'];
okay now there are 3 ways to do it with $fillable is first way and you are doing it right now.
2nd way:
if ($request->hasFile('photo')) {
$file = $request->file('photo');
$fullname=$data['nom'].'_'.date("Y-m-d",time()).'.'.$file->getClientOriginalExtension();
$path = $request->file('photo')->storeAs('images', $fullname);
}
else
{
$fullname = "default_photo_profile.jpg";
}
return User::create([
'nom' => $data['nom'],
'prenom' => $data['prenom'],
'email' => $data['email'],
'photo_url' => $fullname,
'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),
]);
and in your migration change this $table->string('photo_url')->default('default_photo_profile.jpg'); to $table->string('photo_url');
3rd way:
$fullname = "default_photo_profile.jpg";
if ($request->hasFile('photo')) {
$file = $request->file('photo');
$fullname=$data['nom'].'_'.date("Y-m-d",time()).'.'.$file->getClientOriginalExtension();
$path = $request->file('photo')->storeAs('images', $fullname);
return User::create([
'nom' => $data['nom'],
'prenom' => $data['prenom'],
'email' => $data['email'],
'photo_url' => $fullname,
'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),
]);
}
return User::create([
'nom' => $data['nom'],
'prenom' => $data['prenom'],
'email' => $data['email'],
'photo_url' => $fullname,
'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),
]);
}
okay these are the ways to do it. i would prefer first and second way 3rd one is lengthy.
Note: for 2nd and 3rd case you have to change your migration from this $table->string('photo_url')->default('default_photo_profile.jpg'); to $table->string('photo_url');
Hope you get it.
