Question

I am a beginner here so pardon me for this question am using return File::put($path , $data); to create a file in public folder on Laravel. I used this piece of code from controller I need to know the value of $path how should it be.

Answer 1

Use public_path()

For reference:

// Path to the project's root folder     echo base_path();  // Path to the 'app' folder     echo app_path();          // Path to the 'public' folder     echo public_path();  // Path to the 'storage' folder     echo storage_path();  // Path to the 'storage/app' folder     echo storage_path('app');
