Step 1 : Install Laravel 8
first of all we need to get fresh Laravel 8 version application using bellow command, So open your terminal OR command prompt and run bellow command:
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog
Step 2 : Create Migration and Model
Here, we need create database migration for files table and also we will create model for files table.
php artisan make:migration create_files_table
Migration:
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
class CreateFilesTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create('files', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->string('title');
$table->string('name');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('files');
}
}
php artisan migrate
now we will create File model by using following command:
php artisan make:model File
App/Models/File.php
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class File extends Model
{
use HasFactory;
protected $fillable = [
'title','name'
];
}

Step 3: Install Livewire
now in this step, we will simply install livewire to our laravel 8 application using bellow command:
composer require livewire/livewire
Step 4: Create Component
Now here we will create livewire component using their command. so run bellow command to create image upload form component.
php artisan make:livewire file-upload
Now they created fies on both path:
app/Http/Livewire/FileUpload.php
resources/views/livewire/file-upload.blade.php
Now both file we will update as bellow for our contact us form.
app/Http/Livewire/FileUpload.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Livewire;
use Livewire\Component;
use Livewire\WithFileUploads;
use App\Models\File;
class FileUpload extends Component
{
use WithFileUploads;
public $file, $title;
/**
* Write code on Method
*
* @return response()
*/
public function submit()
{
$validatedData = $this->validate([
'title' => 'required',
'file' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg|max:2048',
]);
$validatedData['name'] = $this->file->store('files', 'public');
File::create($validatedData);
session()->flash('message', 'Image successfully Uploaded.');
}
/**
* Write code on Method
*
* @return response()
*/
public function render()
{
return view('livewire.file-upload');
}
}
resources/views/livewire/file-upload.blade.php
<form wire:submit.prevent="submit" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<div>
@if(session()->has('message'))
<div class="alert alert-success">
{{ session('message') }}
</div>
@endif
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleInputName">Title:</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="exampleInputName" placeholder="Enter title" wire:model="title">
@error('title') <span class="text-danger">{{ $message }}</span> @enderror
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleInputName">File:</label>
<input type="file" class="form-control" id="exampleInputName" wire:model="file">
@error('name') <span class="text-danger">{{ $message }}</span> @enderror
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success">Save</button>
</form>
Step 5: Create Route
now we will create one route for calling our example, so let’s add new route to web.php file as bellow:
routes/web.php
Route::get('image-upload', function () {
return view('default');
});
Step 6: Create View File
here, we will create blade file for call form route. in this file we will use @livewireStyles, @livewireScripts and @livewire(‘contact-form’). so let’s add it.
resources/views/default.blade.php
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Laravel Livewire Example - ItSolutionStuff.com</title>
@livewireStyles
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.2/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-JcKb8q3iqJ61gNV9KGb8thSsNjpSL0n8PARn9HuZOnIxN0hoP+VmmDGMN5t9UJ0Z" crossorigin="anonymous">
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="card">
<div class="card-header">
Laravel Livewire Example - ItSolutionStuff.com
</div>
<div class="card-body">
@livewire('file-upload')
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
@livewireScripts
</html>
