How To Resize An Image To Thumbnail In Laravel 7

In this tutorial, we are going on how to resize an image to thumbnail in laravel 7. so here we are using the intervention package for resizing images.

The intervention package is provided by laravel. so we can easily create resize an image to thumbnail in laravel. let’s follow the below steps to resize an image in laravel 7.

Overview

Step 1: Install Laravel
Step 2: Setting Database Configuration
Step 3: Create Table using migration
Step 4: Install Package
Step 5: Add providers and aliases
Step 6: Create Route
Step 7: Create a Model and Controller
Step 8: Create Blade Files
Step 9: Run The Application

Step 1: Install Laravel
We are going to install laravel 7, so first open the command prompt or terminal and go to go to xampp htdocs folder directory using the command prompt. after then run the below command.

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel laravel7_resize_image

1	composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel laravel7_resize_image

Step 2: Setting Database Configuration

After complete installation of laravel. we have to database configuration. now we will open the .env file and change the database name, username, password in the .env file. See below changes in a .env file.

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=Enter_Your_Database_Name(laravel7_resize_image)
DB_USERNAME=Enter_Your_Database_Username(root)
DB_PASSWORD=Enter_Your_Database_Password(root)

DB_CONNECTION=mysql

DB_HOST=127.0.0.1

DB_PORT=3306

DB_DATABASE=Enter_Your_Database_Name(laravel7_resize_image)

DB_USERNAME=Enter_Your_Database_Username(root)

DB_PASSWORD=Enter_Your_Database_Password(root)

Step 3: Create Table using migration

Now, We need to create a migration. so we will below command using create the images table migration.

php artisan make:migration create_images_table --create=images

1	php artisan make:migration create_images_table --create=images

After complete migration. we need below changes in the database/migrations/create_images_table file.

<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

class CreateImagesTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('images', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->bigIncrements('id');
            $table->string('image');
            $table->string('thumbnail');
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('images');
    }
}
?>

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

class CreateImagesTable extends Migration

{

/**

* Run the migrations.

* @return void

public function up()

{

Schema::create('images', function (Blueprint $table) {

$table->bigIncrements('id');

$table->string('image');

$table->string('thumbnail');

$table->timestamps();

});

}

/**

* Reverse the migrations.

* @return void

public function down()

{

Schema::dropIfExists('images');

}

Run the below command. after the changes above file.

php artisan migrate

1	php artisan migrate

Step 4: Install Package
Now, we are going to install the “Intervention” package using the below command.

composer require intervention/image

1	composer require intervention/image

Step 5: Add providers and aliases
We will add below providers and aliases in the “config/app.php” file.

return [

    ......

    $provides => [

        ......

        ......,

        'Intervention\Image\ImageServiceProvider'

    ],

    $aliases => [

        .....

        .....,

        'ImageResize' => 'Intervention\Image\Facades\Image'

    ]

]

return [

......

$provides => [

......

......,

'Intervention\Image\ImageServiceProvider'

$aliases => [

.....

.....,

'ImageResize' => 'Intervention\Image\Facades\Image'

]

Step 6: Create Route

Add the following route code in the “routes/web.php” file.

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These
| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which
| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!
|
*/

// Route::get('/', function () {
    // return view('welcome');
// });

Route::get('resize-image', 'ImageController@index');
Route::post('resize-image', 'ImageController@store');
?>

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------

| Web Routes

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------

| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These

| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which

| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!

// Route::get('/', function () {

// return view('welcome');

// });

Route::get('resize-image', 'ImageController@index');

Route::post('resize-image', 'ImageController@store');

Step 7: Create a Model and Controller

Here below command help to create the controller and model.

php artisan make:controller ImageController --resource --model=Image

1	php artisan make:controller ImageController --resource --model=Image

Image.php

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Image extends Model
{
    protected $fillable = [
        'image','thumbnail'
    ];
}
?>

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Image extends Model

{

protected $fillable = [

'image','thumbnail'

];

}

ImageController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use ImageResize;
use App\Image;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class ImageController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Display a listing of the resource.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function index()
    {
        return view('image');
    }

    /**
     * Show the form for creating a new resource.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function create()
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Store a newly created resource in storage.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function store(Request $request)
    {
		$this->validate($request, [
            'image' => 'required',
            'image.*' => 'mimes:jpeg,jpg,gif,png'
        ]);
  
        $image = $request->file('image');
        $input['imagename'] = time().'.'.$image->extension();
     
        $destinationPath = public_path('/thumbnail');
        $img = ImageResize::make($image->path());
        $img->resize(100, 100, function ($constraint) {
            $constraint->aspectRatio();
        })->save($destinationPath.'/'.$input['imagename']);

        $destinationPath = public_path('/image');
        $image->move($destinationPath, $input['imagename']);
		
		Image::create(['image' => $input['imagename'], 'thumbnail' => $input['imagename']]);
		
        return back()
            ->with('success','Successfully Save Your Image file')
            ->with('imageName',$input['imagename']);
    }

    /**
     * Display the specified resource.

    public function show(Image $image)
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Show the form for editing the specified resource.
     *
     * @param  \App\Image  $image
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function edit(Image $image)
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Update the specified resource in storage.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request

    public function update(Request $request, Image $image)
    {
        //
    }

    /**

        //
    }
}
?>

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use ImageResize;

use App\Image;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class ImageController extends Controller

{

/**

* Display a listing of the resource.

* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response

public function index()

{

return view('image');

}

/**

* Show the form for creating a new resource.

* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response

public function create()

{

}

/**

* Store a newly created resource in storage.

* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request

* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response

public function store(Request $request)

{

$this->validate($request, [

'image' => 'required',

'image.*' => 'mimes:jpeg,jpg,gif,png'

]);

$image = $request->file('image');

$input['imagename'] = time().'.'.$image->extension();

$destinationPath = public_path('/thumbnail');

$img = ImageResize::make($image->path());

$img->resize(100, 100, function ($constraint) {

$constraint->aspectRatio();

})->save($destinationPath.'/'.$input['imagename']);

$destinationPath = public_path('/image');

$image->move($destinationPath, $input['imagename']);

Image::create(['image' => $input['imagename'], 'thumbnail' => $input['imagename']]);

return back()

->with('success','Successfully Save Your Image file')

->with('imageName',$input['imagename']);

}

/**

* Display the specified resource.

* @param \App\Image $image

* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response

public function show(Image $image)

{

}

/**

* Show the form for editing the specified resource.

* @param \App\Image $image

* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response

public function edit(Image $image)

{

}

/**

* Update the specified resource in storage.

* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request

* @param \App\Image $image

* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response

public function update(Request $request, Image $image)

{

}

/**

* Remove the specified resource from storage.

* @param \App\Image $image

* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response

public function destroy(Image $image)

{

}

Step 8: Create Blade Files

So finally, first we will create the image.blade.php files in “resources/views” directory.

image.blade.php

    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Submit</button>
  </form>
</div>
</body>
</html>

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>

<title>Resize Image To Thumbnail In Laravel 7 - XpertPhp</title>

</head>

<body>

@if ($message = Session::get('success'))

<p>{{ $message }}</p>

</div>

<strong>Original Image:</strong>

<br/>

</div>

<strong>Thumbnail Image:</strong>
