Laravel 11 Summernote Image Upload Example

Hello, laravel web developers! In this article, we'll see how to upload images in the Summernote text editor in laravel 11. Summernote is a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor that allows users to create rich text editors for web pages.

You can integrate any 3rd parties available in Django, rails, angular, and so on. Summernote is a JavaScript library that helps you create WYSIWYG editors online.

In this step, we'll install the laravel 11 application using the composer command.

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app

Then, we'll create migration and model using the following command.

php artisan make:migration create_posts_table

Migration:

<?php
  
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
  
return new class extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up(): void
    {
        Schema::create('posts', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('title');
            $table->text('body');
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down(): void
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('posts');
    }
};

Then, migrate the table into the database using the following command.

php artisan migrate

app/Models/Post.php

<?php
    
namespace App\Models;
    
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Casts\Attribute;
   
class Post extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;

    /**
     * Write code on Method
     *
     * @return response()
     */
    protected $fillable = [
        'title', 'body'
    ];
  
    /**
     * Get the user's first name.
     */
    protected function body(): Attribute
    {
        return Attribute::make(
            set: fn (string $value) => $this->makeBodyContent($value),
        );
    }
  
    /**
     * Write code on Method
     *
     * @return response()
     */
    public function makeBodyContent($content)
    {
        $dom = new \DomDocument();
        $dom->loadHtml($content, LIBXML_HTML_NOIMPLIED | LIBXML_HTML_NODEFDTD);
        $imageFile = $dom->getElementsByTagName('img');
       
        foreach($imageFile as $item => $image){
            $data = $image->getAttribute('src');
            list($type, $data) = explode(';', $data);
            list(, $data)      = explode(',', $data);
            $imgeData = base64_decode($data);
            $image_name= "/uploads/" . time().$item.'.png';
            $path = public_path() . $image_name;
            file_put_contents($path, $imgeData);
                 
            $image->removeAttribute('src');
            $image->setAttribute('src', $image_name);
        }
       
        return $dom->saveHTML();
    }
}

Next, we'll define the route into the web.php file

routes/web.php

<?php
  
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
  
use App\Http\Controllers\PostController;

Route::get('posts/create',[PostController::class,'create']);
Route::post('posts/store',[PostController::class,'store'])->name('posts.store');

Then, we'll create a controller using the following command.

app/Http/Controllers/PostController.php

<?php
     
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
     
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\Post;
use Illuminate\View\View;
use Illuminate\Http\RedirectResponse;
     
class PostController extends Controller
{
  
    /**
     * Write code on Method
     *
     * @return response()
     */
    public function create(): View
    {
        return view('posts-create');
    }
        
    /**
     * Write code on Method
     *
     * @return response()
     */
    public function store(Request $request): RedirectResponse
    {
        $this->validate($request, [
             'title' => 'required',
             'body' => 'required'
        ]);
   
        $post = Post::create([
            'title' => $request->title,
            'body' => $request->body
        ]);
   
        return back()->with('success','Post created successfully.');
    }
}

Then, we'll create a post-create.blade.php file. add summernote text editor in that file.

resources/views/posts-create.blade.php

<html lang="{{ str_replace('_', '-', app()->getLocale()) }}">

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function () {
        $('#summernote').summernote({
            height: 300,
        });
    });
</script>
        
</body>
</html>

Now, run the laravel 11 application using the following command.
