Resize Image in Laravel 12

Laravel 12 Image Intervention Tutorial With Example

by

Intervention Image is an open-source PHP image manipulation library which provides an easier way to manipulate images. One may use the Intervention/Image library for PHP projects as well. You can do the following things with images using the Intervention Image Composer package. I will explain only the most commonly used functions here.

  • crop()
  • blur()
  • canvas()
  • filter()
  • fill()
  • height()
  • insert()
  • width()
  • make()
  • reset()
  • resize()
  • save()
  • text()
  • rotate()

You should have the following two extensions enabled on your server.

  • GD
  • Imagick

Here, we will install the Intervention/Image Composer package. Intervention/Image provides the `resize()` method to resize images. We will create a simple form with an input field. You can choose an image, and then you will see a preview of the original and thumbnail images.

 Follow the below steps to generate a thumbnail image in the Laravel application.

Step for How to Resize Image in Laravel 12?

  • Step 1: Install Laravel 12
  • Step 2: Install Intervention Image Package
  • Step 3: Create Routes
  • Step 4: Create Controller File
  • Step 5: View File and Create Upload directory
  • Run Laravel App

 

Laravel 12 Image Intervention steps

 

So, let’s follow the below steps to generate a thumbnail image in the Laravel 12 application.

Step 1: Install Laravel 12

Still not created the Laravel app, then execute the below command:

 

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app

 

 

Step 2: Install Intervention Image Package

Next, we will install intervention/image-laravel for resizing images. This package allows us to generate thumbnail images for our project. So, first, run the command below in your CMD or terminal:

 

composer require intervention/image-laravel

 

Step 3: Create Routes

 Add routes and a controller file. So first, add the below route in your routes.php file.

routes/web.php

 

<?php

  

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

  

use App\Http\Controllers\ImageController;

  

Route::get('image-upload', [ImageController::class, 'index']);

Route::post('image-upload', [ImageController::class, 'store'])->name('image.store');

 

Step 4: Create Controller File

 Create a new ImageController for image upload and resizing. So, first, run the command below:

 

php artisan make:controller ImageController

 

After this command, you can find the ImageController.php file in your app/Http/Controllers directory. Open ImageController.php file and put below code in that file.

Make sure you have created “images” and “thumbnail” (inside the images folder) folder in the public folder.

app/Http/Controllers/ImageController.php

<?php

  

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

  

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use Illuminate\View\View;

use Illuminate\Http\RedirectResponse;

use Intervention\Image\Laravel\Facades\Image;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\File;

  

class ImageController extends Controller

{

    /**

     * Display a listing of the resource.

     *

     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response

     */

    public function index(): View

    {

        return view('imageUpload');

    }

        

    /**

     * Display a listing of the resource.

     *

     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response

     */

    public function store(Request $request): RedirectResponse

    {

        $request->validate([

            'image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg|max:2048',

        ]);

      

        $image = Image::read($request->file('image'));

        // Main Image Upload on Folder Code

        $imageName = time().'-'.$request->file('image')->getClientOriginalName();

        $destinationPath = public_path('images/');

        // Create directories if they don't exist

        if (!File::exists($destinationPath)) {

            File::makeDirectory($destinationPath, 0755, true);

        }

        // Save image

        $image->save($destinationPath.$imageName);

        // Generate Thumbnail Image Upload on Folder Code

        $destinationPathThumbnail = public_path('images/thumbnail/');

        $image->resize(100,100);

        // Create directories if they don't exist

        if (!File::exists($destinationPathThumbnail)) {

            File::makeDirectory($destinationPathThumbnail, 0755, true);

        }

        // Save image

        $image->save($destinationPathThumbnail.$imageName);

        /**

         * Write Code for Image Upload Here,

         *

         * $upload = new Images();

         * $upload->file = $imageName;

         * $upload->save();            

        */

        return back()

            ->with('success','Image Upload successful')

            ->with('imageName',$imageName);

    }

}
