How to upload multiple image in laravel

here is what worked best for me:

first do this in your form:

<form class="form-horizontal" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="/details">

and this for multiple selection:

<input required type="file" class="form-control" name="images[]" placeholder="address" multiple>

Now do this in your controller:

public function store(request $request) {

    $input=$request->all();
    $images=array();
    if($files=$request->file('images')){
        foreach($files as $file){
            $name=$file->getClientOriginalName();
            $file->move('image',$name);
            $images[]=$name;
        }
    }
    /*Insert your data*/

    Detail::insert( [
        'images'=>  implode("|",$images),
        'description' =>$input['description'],
        //you can put other insertion here
    ]);


    return redirect('redirecting page');
}

Hope this works

html

<input type="file" name="images[]" multiple>

controller : store folder storage

foreach ($request->file('images') as $imagefile) {
   return $imagefile->store('images','public');
}

<form role="form" method="post" action="{{URL::to('addimage')}}" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <div class="form-group" style="padding-bottom: 15px">                            
         <label class="col-lg-3">Upload</label>
         <input class="btn btn-primary"  type="file" name="files[]" > <br/>
    </div>
</form>




$images = $request->file('files');
if ($request->hasFile('files')) :
        foreach ($images as $item):
            $var = date_create();
            $time = date_format($var, 'YmdHis');
            $imageName = $time . '-' . $item->getClientOriginalName();
            $item->move(base_path() . '/uploads/file/', $imageName);
            $arr[] = $imageName;
        endforeach;
        $image = implode(",", $arr);
else:
        $image = '';
endif;



        DB::table('fooo')->insert(
        array(
            'image' => $image
           )
       );

        Session::flash('message', 'Image upload successfully successfully');
        return redirect('/addimage');

this can also be achieved with

            foreach ($request->file('files') as $index => $item) {
                $path = $request->files[$index]->store('images');
            }
