where is the location of uploaded file in laravel

I tried to upload file by this code:

controller:

public function fileupload (Request $request)
{

  $file = $request->file('image');
  echo 'File Name: '.$file->getClientOriginalName();
  echo 'File Real Path: '.$file->getRealPath();
  $file->move('uploads', $file->getClientOriginalName());

}

view:

<html>
   <body>
      
      <?php
         echo Form::open(array('url' => '/fileupload','files'=>'true'));
         echo 'Select the file to upload';
         echo Form::file('image');
         echo Form::submit('Upload File');
         echo Form::close();
      ?>
   
   </body>
</html>

and after that I receive this message:

File Real Path: /private/var/folders/d0/b3zwsx7530l115k5rrj0zkx80000gn/T/phpdDRwaz

but I cant find my file. What is the path and how can I access it?

You can find out default file upload path (storage_path) from

/config/filesystems.php

You can change that as per your requirements.

Hope this helps you.

update some code in your project so that you can easily upload and find the file real parh

    $path = public_path('products/images/');
    File::makeDirectory($path, $mode = 0777, true, true);               
    $file = $request->file('image');
    $archivo = value(function() use ($file){
    $filename = str_random(10) . '.' . $file->getClientOriginalExtension();
            return strtolower($filename);
        });

        $file->move($path, $archivo);

The Upload file is find inside your laravel public/images folder hope this will help you Thanks

You are checking the file path before uploading the file, so check the folder uploads which is present in the storage folder in root.

storage\app\uploads
