Hi ,
i want to upload image, in that image path is storing in database , but how to store image into seperate folder…?

4

No, Cake doesn’t really support that out the box (It’s actually a standard PHP).

But there are some cool plugins to handle it (https://github.com/friendsofcake/awesome-cakephp#files)

5

is there any example code…?
i am confused…

6

Maybe @dash should read this link.
http://php.net/manual/en/function.move-uploaded-file.php

The idea, use move_uploaded_file() after save success.

Example

if ($this->Articles->save($article)) {
    //here code for process move_uploaded_file($filename,  $destination)
    $this->Flash->success(__('Your article has been saved.'));
    return $this->redirect(['action' => 'index']);
}

I use this package for uploading image: https://github.com/Xety/Cake3-Upload

OK but where should i create destination folder…?

I am trying like this in cakephp 3.6.7

$profilepic=$this->request->data[‘image’][‘name’];
move_uploaded_file($this->request->data[‘image’][‘tmp_name’],“uploads/”.$this->request->data[‘image’][‘name’]);

I am trying to store an image in cakephp 3.6.7 I am only able to save the filename in db, however, unable to store the actual file on the older . Neeplz hrlp me…

error:-
Warning (2): move_uploaded_file(uploads/1.jpg): failed to open stream: No such file or directory [APP/Controller\RegistrationsController.php, line 40]

Warning (2): move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move ‘E:\xampp\tmp\php1D34.tmp’ to ‘uploads/1.jpg’ [APP/Controller\RegistrationsController.php, line 40]

Yes, you should create the folder and set its permissions to be writeable.

11

Where Should i create folder…?

12

by default into your /webroot folder

13

I am Using Xampp Server

where should i create folder…?

14

in your cake install thee should be a /webroot folder.

15

You can use Constants Full path to the webroot. WWW_ROOT

WWW_ROOT.DS.files.DS.uploads.DS.$profilepic.”.jpg”
Same like …/project/webroot/files/uploads/avatar.jpg

But, folder files/uploads not exist, so you must create and give permission 777

16

in that 4 folders are there…,
css,js,font,img and some files…

in that what should i do…

17

under webroot files are not there…

18

Maybe you can ignore the files folder and just create folder uploads.

WWW_ROOT.DS.uploads.DS.$profilepic.”.jpg”

Depend how you manage uploaded folders and files.

19

in your code right before move_uploaded_file(…

$myfolder= WWW_ROOT.DS.files.DS.uploads;
$dir = new Folder($myfolder, true, 0755);  //creates target folder if not exists.

and then your code

move_uploaded_file(($this->request->data[‘image’][‘tmp_name’], $myfolder.DS.$this->request->data[‘image’][‘name’]);

don’t forget to write

use Cake\Filesystem\Folder;

on top of your controller.
