The best way is using yii2 file kit. https://github.com/trntv/yii2-file-kit That more feature

  • File upload widget (based on Blueimp File Upload)
  • Component for storing files (built on top of flysystem)
  • Actions to download, delete, and view (download) files
  • Behavior for saving files in the model and delete files when you delete a model

If its a user defined folder, chances are pretty good you will have to create the directory on the fly, which the UploadedFile method does not do. For Yii2 I would use the createDirectory() method in the "yii\helpers\BaseFileHelper" class. ex:

use yii\web\UploadedFile;
use yii\helpers\BaseFileHelper;

$model->uploaded_file = UploadedFile::getInstance($model, 'uploaded_file');

$unique_name = uniqid('file_');
$model->file_type = $model->uploaded_file->extension;
$model->file_name = $unique_name.'.'.$model->file_type;
$model->file_path = 'uploads/projects/'. $project_id;

BaseFileHelper::createDirectory($model->file_path);

$model->uploaded_file->saveAs($model->file_path .'/'. $model->file_name);
$model->save();

Check out createDirectory

\Yii::$app->basePath corresponds to your application folder,for example \myapp\backend\.So if you want to save it to myapp\backend\data,save it like

$file = \yii\web\UploadedFile::getInstance($model, 'logo');
$file->saveAs(\Yii::$app->basePath . '/data/'.$file);

if ($model->load(Yii::$app->request->post())) {

    $model->password=md5($model->password);
    $model->photo = UploadedFile::getInstance($model, 'photo');

    if($model->validate()){
        $model->photo->saveAs('uploads/' . $model->photo->baseName . '.' . $model->photo->extension);
        $model->save();
        return $this->redirect(['index']);
    }
}

It saves my images in web/uploads folder.

//yii 1.1 example
if($file=CUploadedFile::getInstanceByName("Shorty[avatar]"))
{
    $basepath = preg_replace('~([\\\]|[\/])protected~s','',Yii::app()->basePath);

    $filename = $basepath ."/images/shorty_images/" . $shorty_model->id . "/";

    if(!file_exists($filename))
        if(!mkdir($basepath ."/images/shorty_images/" . $shorty_model->id, 0777, true))
            throw new CHttpException(404,'Directory create error!');

    $status = $file->saveAs($filename . iconv("UTF-8", "ASCII//IGNORE", $file->name));
}

Something like this should do the job, if you use model/active form to submit the form (upload image). The key part is saveAs, where the first parameter can be path to file. This includes also Yii Aliases.

if (\Yii::$app->request->isPost) {
    $model->load(\Yii::$app->request->getBodyParams());
    $file = \yii\web\UploadedFile::getInstance($model, 'image');
    $file->saveAs('path/to/file');
}

Also take a deeper look into UploadedFile class.
