we will learn how to upload image using jquery ajax. In this example i use FormJS for fire Ajax that way we can simply use laravel validation and also print laravel error message.

Here i give you full example of ajax image uploading step by step like create laravel project, migration, model, route, blade file etc. So you have to just follow few steps.

Step 1 : Install Laravel 6 Application

we are going from scratch, So we require to get fresh Laravel application using bellow command, So open your terminal OR command prompt and run bellow command:

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

Database Configuration

In this step, we require to make database configuration, you have to add following details on your .env file.

1.Database Username

1.Database Password

1.Database Name

In .env file also available host and port details, you can configure all details as in your system, So you can put like as bellow:

following path: .env

DB_HOST=localhost
DB_DATABASE=homestead
DB_USERNAME=homestead
DB_PASSWORD=secret

Step 3: Create ajax_images Table and Model

In this step we have to create migration for images table using Laravel 6 php artisan command, so first fire bellow command:

php artisan make:model Image -m

After this command you have to put bellow code in your migration file for create Image table.

following path:/database/migrations/2020_01_10_102325_create_images_table.php

<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

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

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

Now we require to run migration be bellow command:

php artisan migrate

After you have to put bellow code in your model file for create Image table.

following path:/app/Image.php

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Image extends Model
{
    /**
    * The attributes that are mass assignable.
    *
    * @var array
    */
    protected $fillable = ['title','image'];
}

Step 4: Create Route

In this is step we need to create route for ajax image upload layout file and another one for post request.open following fille path

following path:/routes/web.php

Route::get('imageUploadAjax', 'ImageUploadAjaxController@imageUploadAjax');
Route::post('imageUploadAjax', 'ImageUploadAjaxController@imageUploadAjaxPost')->name('imageUploadsAjax');

Step 5: Create Controller

here this step now we should create new controller as ImageUploadAjaxController,So run bellow command for generate new controller

php artisan make:controller ImageUploadAjaxController

now this step, this controller will manage layout and image validation with post request,bellow content in controller file.following fille path

following path:/app/Http/Controllers/ImageUploadAjaxController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Validator;
use App\Image;

class ImageUploadAjaxController extends Controller
{
  /**
     * Show the application ajaxImageUpload.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function imageUploadAjax()
    {
      return view('imageUploadAjax');
    }
    /**
     * Show the application ajaxImageUploadPost.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function imageUploadAjaxPost(Request $request)
    {
      $validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
        'title' => 'required',
        'image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg|max:2048',
      ]);

      if ($validator->passes()) {

        $inputData['title'] = $request->title;
        $inputData['image'] = time().'.'.$request->image->extension();
        $request->image->move(public_path('images'), $inputData['image']);

        Image::create($inputData);
        
        return response()->json(['success'=>'done']);
      }
      return response()->json(['error'=>$validator->errors()->all()]);
    }
}

Step 6: Create View

In Last step, let's create ajaxImageUpload.blade.php(resources/views/imageUploadAjax.blade.php) for layout and we will write design code here and also form for ajax image upload, So put following code:

following path:resources/views/imageUploadAjax.blade.php

    $(this).parents("form").ajaxForm(options);
  });
  var options = { 
    complete: function(response) 
    {
      if($.isEmptyObject(response.responseJSON.error)){
        $("input[name='title']").val('');
        alert('Image Upload Successfully.');
      }else{
        printErrorMsg(response.responseJSON.error);
      }
    }
  };
  function printErrorMsg (msg) {
  $(".print-error-msg").find("ul").html('');
  $(".print-error-msg").css('display','block');
  $.each( msg, function( key, value ) {
    $(".print-error-msg").find("ul").append('<li>'+value+'</li>');
  });
  }
</script>
</body>
</html>
