I've been experimenting using the new Flysystem integration with Laravel 5. I am storing 'localised' paths to the DB, and getting the Storage facade to complete the path. For example I store screenshots/1.jpg and using
Storage::disk('local')->get('screenshots/1.jpg') or
Storage::disk('s3')->get('screenshots/1.jpg') I can retrieve the same file on different disks.
get retrieves the file contents, but I am hoping to use it in my views like this:
<img src="{{ Storage::path('screenshots/1.jpg') }}" /> but path, or anything able to retrieve the full path is not available (as far as I can see). So how can I return the full path? Or, I'm wondering if this is by design? If so, why am I not supposed to be able to get the full path? Or, am I going about this completely the wrong way?

Retrieve the file pathphp $storagePath = Storage::disk('local')->getDriver()->getAdapter()->getPathPrefix();
__DIR__ is the current directory you are in, if you wanted to go back one step, you could use dirname. This is used such as; dirname(__DIR__);
The storage_path function returns the fully qualified path to the storage directory: $path = storage_path(); You may also use the storage_path function to generate a fully qualified path to a given file relative to the storage directory: $app_path = storage_path('app'); $file_path = storage_path('app/file.txt');
If you have file object from request then you can simply get by laravel function. $extension = $request->file->extension(); dd($extension); If you have file object from request then you can simply get by laravel function.
The Path to your Storage disk would be :
$storagePath = Storage::disk('local')->getDriver()->getAdapter()->getPathPrefix() I don't know any shorter solutions to that...
You could share the $storagePath to your Views and then just call
$storagePath."/myImg.jpg"; If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
