For those of us who use Storage::disk(), Laravel v9 appears to make use of directoryExists().

Storage::disk('name')->directoryExists($path);

Link to directoryExists method.

Try this:

if (Storage::missing($storagePath)) {
    Storage::makeDirectory($storagePath);
}

In Laravel 8.x you can use this condition:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;

if (Storage::disk('public')->exists($path)) 
{
    // 
}

   if(!Storage::disk('ads')->exists(auth()->user()->id)) {
        Storage::disk('ads')->makeDirectory(auth()->user()->id, 0775, true); //creates directory
    }

You can easily use Storage::isDirectory(). Storage::class is an instance of \Illuminate\Filesystem\Filesystem and it contains a method isDirectory for checking if a given path exists and if it is directory or not.

    if(Storage::isDirectory("images")){
    // you code...
    }

Another way for laravel 5.5 using Storage Facade. 

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;
if(Storage::exists('/mnt/files/file.jpg')) {
    dd('file esxists');
} else {
    dd('no file found');
}

in laravel 5.4 $exists = Storage::disk('public')->exists('images/test_image.jpg'); - with 'public' that was config in filesystem.php

'public' => [
    'driver' => 'local',
    'root'   => public_path(),
    'url' => env('APP_URL').'/public',
    'visibility' => 'public',
],

'images/test_image.jpg' is the path of image.

Well you can easily do that via File Facade File::isDirectory($YOURDIRECTORYPATHHERE); this will return boolean based on existence!

If you want to check if a directory exists and create one if doesn't exist, this code will work for you.

if(!Storage::exists('/path/to/your/directory')) {

    Storage::makeDirectory('/path/to/create/your/directory', 0775, true); //creates directory

}

There are two things to check: (1) that the path exists, and (2) that the path is a directory.

This will check the path exists (syntax for Laravel 5.2+), no matter whether it is a file or a directory:

Storage::exists('your-path') // bool

Once you know it exists, this will confirm the path is a directory:

Storage::getMetadata('your-path')['type'] === 'dir'

The underlying Flysystem library will cache what it can when inspecting the filesystem (which may be local or remote), so in normal circumstances these two functions will only make one call to the filesystem.

You can retrieve all of the directories as an array then check if the directory (path) is there.

$dir = 'dir/path';
$existingDirs = Storage::disk(env('FILE_SYSTEM'))->allDirectories();
if (!in_array($dir, $existingDirs)) {
    // dir doesn't exist so create it
}

If you want to check for a directory, try this:

if (Storage::directories($directory)->has('someDirectory')) {
    ....

Try this:

// To check if File exists in Laravel 5.1
$exists = Storage::disk('local')->has('file.jpg');

// To check if File exists in Laravel 5.2
$exists = Storage::disk('local')->exists('file.jpg');
