How to install laravel 9

https://tutorial101.blogspot.com/2022/02/how-to-install-laravel-9.html

Connecting our Database

open .env file root directory. 

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=laravel9
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=

Creating Controller

php artisan make:controller UploadController
C:\xampp\htdocs\laravel9\blog>php artisan make:controller UploadController
change it with the following codes:
blog\app\Http\Controllers\UploadController.php
//blog\app\Http\Controllers\UploadController.php
<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\File; //add File Model

class UploadController extends Controller
{
    public function index(){
 
    	$files = File::all();
    	return view('upload')->with('files', $files);
    }
 
    public function store(Request $request){
 
    	$messages = [
    		'required' => 'Please select file to upload',
		];
 
    	$this->validate($request, [
    		'file' => 'required',
    	], $messages);
 
    	foreach ($request->file as $file) {
    		$filename = time().'_'.$file->getClientOriginalName();
	    	$filesize = $file->getSize();
	    	$file->storeAs('public/',$filename);
	    	$fileModel = new File;
	    	$fileModel->name = $filename;
	    	$fileModel->size = $filesize;
	    	$fileModel->location = 'storage/'.$filename;
	    	$fileModel->save();    		
    	}
 
    	return redirect('/')->with('success', 'File/s Uploaded Successfully');
 
    }
}
Creating Model
php artisan make:model File -m
C:\xampp\htdocs\laravel9\blog>php artisan make:model File -m

This will create our model in the form of File.php file located : blog\app\Models\File.php

we put -m when we create our model.
this will automatically make the migration for our model and you will see that in yourproject/database/migrations
blog\database\migrations\create_members_table.php
edit code blog\database\migrations\create_file_table.php
<?php

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

return new class extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('files', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->increments('id');
            $table->string('name');
            $table->string('size');
            $table->string('location');
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

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

php artisan migrate

C:\xampp\htdocs\laravel9\blog>php artisan migrate
Migration table created successfully.
check database table
Creating Routes
blog\routes\web.php
//blog\routes\web.php
<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

//Route::get('/', function () {
//    return view('welcome');
//});
  
Route::get('/','UploadController@index');
Route::post('/store','UploadController@store')->name('upload.file');
