I'm following the documentation to upload files to the storage
folder, but the path the function returns is not the same path as the file was stored in, look in the documentation :
$path = $request->photo->store('images');
The path returned to $path
is /home/usuario/pasta/projeto/images
and the file is stored in /home/usuario/pasta/projeto/app/storage/app/images
. This last bit " /app/storage/
" was defined by the filesystem.php
file inside the config
folder:
'disks' => [
'local' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app'),
],
'public' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public'),
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/storage',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
...
],
How can I get the actual path of the saved file?
