How to use Laravel Storage::file();

I wanted to check the files inside my public path 'public/img/certs' but it returns an array. Im currently using laravel 5.5 and my first time using the 'Storage' file system.

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;
public function index(Request $request)
{
    $path = base_path() . '/public/img/certs';

    $files = Storage::files($path);

    dd($files);
    return view('dashboard.index');
}

Try below code in your controller hope this will help you to store the file in storage location of your application.

if($request->hasFile('image')){
            $image_name=$request->image->getClientOriginalName();
            $request->image->storeAs('public',$image_name); 
        }
        $request->user()->profile_pic=$request->image;
        $request->user()->save();
        return back();

Modified it according to your requirement so this code work definately.

First, $files = Storage::files('$path'); won't work at all, because the variable won't be interpreted.

Second, Storage::files will return an array because you asked for files and gave it a directory. The array will contain all the files in that directory.

Third, consider the public_path helper for this:

$path = public_path('img/certs');

It's a bit cleaner and will work if you ever put your public files somewhere non-standard.
