I am unable to delete the file (uploaded by the user) on calling the destroy method in the post controller.
I am able to upload the file to my drive that is root/public/uploads/attachment
this is my filesystem
'uploads' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => public_path('uploads'),
],
This is what i have tried in my controller
public function destroy(Post $post)
{
$post=Post::find($post->id);
Storage::disk('uploads')->delete($post->image);
$post->categories()->detach();
$post->tags()->detach();
$post->delete();
return redirect('admin/post')->with('message','Deleted Sucessfully');
}
I also have tried
unlink(public_path().'/uploads/'.$post->image);
But both actions gives the same results the post gets deleted but when i physically check the attachments folder the image is still present there
If you specify the Disk Then try it(Full Path of Image)..
Storage::disk('uploads')->delete(public_path().'/uploads/'.$post->image);
Or
Storage::delete($post->image);
And Must use
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;
