How am I supposed to write on the $fileName if I want to custom an image file when I upload it like for example product-code_product-name.jpg or something like 111_instant-noodle.jpg?
and this is the code:
$fileName = <something to code here>;
$path = $request->file('the_file')->storeAs('the_path', $fileName, 'public');
return $path;
or maybe any other way for me to achieve that?
What I want to achieve is when the file is uploaded to the database, I want the file saved with this kind of name "product-code_product-name.jpg" and not use its original name.
I tried:
$fileName = time() . $request->file('the_file')->getClientOriginalName();
but it saved with its original name, and I don't want that, so what am I supposed to do?
You can do something like this to create custom file name according to your choice/requirement.
// Combine the sanitized product code and product name
$customFileName = $productCode . "_" . $productName . ".jpg";
// Replace any spaces with underscores
$customFileName = str_replace(" ", "_", $customFileName);
// Save the file with the custom filename
$path = $request->file('the_file')->storeAs('the_path', $customFileName, 'public');
