Make a Text File Using Laravel and PHP

I want to ask a question. I'm new in laravel framework. I want to create a text file from the input form data user using the Laravel framework. while the same time, I want to save these input to my database.

I have success to save in my database. but I fail to create the .txt file from this.

I have tried to get data from database but error. and I just try to get data from input form is an error too.

I've tried...

<?php

    $nama     = $_POST['name'];
    $email    = $_POST['email'];
    $dob      = $_POST['date'];
    $phone    = $_POST['phone'];
    $gender   = $_POST['gender'];
    $address  = $_POST['addreess'];
    $date     = date('dmY');
    $jam      = data('his');

    $data = "$nama,$email,$dob,$phone,$gender,$address";
    $file = "$nama"-"$date$jam";
    $namafile = "$file.txt";  

    $fh = fopen($namafile,"w");  
    fwrite($fh,$data);

    fclose($file);  

    echo "<h2>Hasil Penyimpanan Data</h2>";  
    echo "<hr>";  
    echo "Hasil : <a href='$namafile'> $namafile </a>";

I use it in my index.php with the means that I can get data from the input form directly and then save as a .txt file.

Here's my code in the controller that's saving to my database:

public function store(Request $request)
{
    $employee = new Employee();
    $employee->nama = $request->get('name');
    $employee->email = $request->get('email');
    $employee->dob = $request->get('date');
    $employee->phone = $request->get('phone');
    $employee->gender = $request->get('gender');
    $employee->addreess = $request->get('addreess');
    $employee->save();

    return redirect('employees')->with('success','Selamat, Data berhasil di tambahkan !');
}

How can I save the input data to the database and at the same time how can I save the data to a text file?

Thanks for your help. :)

In Laravel, use put() of Storage facade.

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;

Storage::disk('local')->put('file.txt', 'Your content here');

// 'file.txt' // yo can use your file name here.
// 'Your content here' // you can specify your content here

This will be stored in storage/app/

so your controller will look like this,

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;
use App\Employee;


class HomeController extends Controller
{

    public function store(Request $request)
    {
      Storage::disk('local')->put('file.txt', 'Your content here');

      $employee = new Employee();
      $employee->nama = $request->get('name');
      $employee->email = $request->get('email');
      $employee->dob = $request->get('date');
      $employee->phone = $request->get('phone');
      $employee->gender = $request->get('gender');
      $employee->addreess = $request->get('addreess');
      $employee->save();

      return redirect('employees')->with('success','Selamat, Data berhasil di tambahkan !');
    }

}
