UPLOAD FILE Using CODEIGNITER FRAMEWORK<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Date posted :03\/04\/2019<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Most importantly, in this tutorial we are going to upload the file using PHP- codeigniter framework. It has upload library for upload the file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

File upload using codeigniter Framework<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

pre-requesties<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

1)However create a uploads directory at the project root to store files.
2)After that, we need to prepare a simple form. It allow us to select the file.
3)In addition to that generate the controller for include file details.
4)Finally, create the model for database.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step by step procedure:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The following steps are used to upload the file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

step1:\ufeff<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Create a directory name as ‘uploads’ And it should have the file permission of 777. Because, this is the most important step to allow permission on upload the file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

step 2:\ufeff<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Using a text editor, create a form and name it as fileview.php(application\/views\/)<\/strong>. This will be used for rendering the html to user for allowing file upload functionality.

For example,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<html>\n   <head>\n      <title>My Form<\/title>\n   <\/head>\n   <body>\n      <!-- <form action = \"\"> -->\n      <?php echo $error;?>\n      <?php echo form_open_multipart('Form\/do_upload');?>\n      <h5>firstname<\/h5>\n      <input type = \"text\" name = \"firstname\" value=\"\">\n      <h5>gender<\/h5>\n      <input type = \"text\" name = \"gender\" value=\"\">  \n      <h5>hobbies<\/h5>\n      <input type = \"text\" name = \"hobbies\" value=\"\">\n      <h5>district<\/h5>\n      <input type = \"text\" name = \"district\" value=\"\">\n      <h5>discription<\/h5>\n      <input type = \"text\" name = \"discription\" value=\"\">\n      <h5>userfile<\/h5>\n      <input type = \"file\" name = \"userfile\"  value=\"\">\n      
<\/div>\n      <\/tr>  \n      <?php\n         echo form_close();\n         ?>  \n   <\/body>\n<\/html>\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
step 3:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Instantly, create a controller file and also name it as Form.php<\/strong>
File name :  (application\/controllers\/ Form.php).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
public function upload_control() { \n          $this->load->library('form_validation');\n         $this->load->view('fileview', array('error' => ' ' )); \n      } \n\n   public function do_upload() { \n      #Used to load the model\n      $this->load->model('Insert_model');\n       #Used to load the form validation library  \n      $this->load->library('form_validation');\n       #Used to load the upload library\n       $this->load->library('upload');\n\n          #used to get the file details\n         $config['upload_path'] = '.\/uploads\/'; \n         $config['allowed_types'] = 'php|gif|jpg|png|txt|doc|docx'; \n         $config['max_size']      = '1000'; \n         $config['max_width']     = '1024'; \n         $config['max_height']    = '768';  \n         \n         $this->upload->initialize($config);\n\n           #used to upload the file name in to the folder(uploads)\n\n         if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload('userfile')) { \n              #$error used to display about error\n            $error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());\n            $this->load->view('fileview', $error); \n\n         }\n         else\n          {         \n\n           $data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());\n            $uploadData = $this->upload->data();\n            #used to get the file name\n            $userfile1 = $uploadData['file_name']; \n              \n             $postData = array(\n                'firstname' => $this->input->post('firstname'),\n                'gender' => $this->input->post('gender'),\n                  'hobbies' => $this->input->post('hobbies'),\n                    'district' => $this->input->post('district'),\n                      'discription' => $this->input->post('discription'),\n                      'userfile' => $userfile1,\n                      'discription' => $this->input->post('discription'),\n                 ); \n                 # used to insert the values in to database \n              $insert = $this->Insert_model->insert($postData); \n          echo \"Data inserted successfully\";\n           \n            \n         } \n        \n         }<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
  • $this->load->model(‘Insert_model’); = Used to load the form model(database).<\/li>
  • $this->load->library(‘form_validation’); = Used to load the form validation library.<\/li>
  • $this->load->library(‘upload’); = Used to load the upload library for file upload.<\/li>
  • $this->upload->do_upload(‘userfile’) =Used to upload the file name into the folder.<\/li>
  • $error = array(‘error’ => $this->upload->display_errors()); = Used to diplay the error.<\/li>
  • $this->load->view(‘fileview’, $error); = This will load the form with the error.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    step4:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
    As a result of  create a model, name it as Insert_model.php(application\/controllers\/ Insert_model.php).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
    <?php\nclass Insert_model extends CI_Model \n{\n\tpublic function insert($data = array()) \n\t{\n        $insert = $this->db->insert('form', $data);\n    }\n}\n?>\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
    \ufeffconclusion:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    Finally, The selected file name will show in the database and the file is uploaded to the folder with file name(uploads).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
