The core issue here is thatvalue="{{ $product-> product_image }}"
is not valid.<input type="file">
doesn't support that, as the image needs to be directly uploaded from the User's machine, and unless a file is selected and uploaded,$request->file('image')
will benull
.
To handle this cleaner, use some conditional logic in the Controller:
First, upload the image and set a reference to the file:
$profileImage = null;
if ($image = $request->file('image')) {
$destinationPath = 'storage/img/tech/';
$profileImage = $image->getClientOriginalName();
$image->move($destinationPath, $profileImage);
}
Next, set the$product->product_image
based on the value of$profileImage
:
$product = Product::find($id);
...
if ($profileImage)
$product->product_image = $profileImage;
}
Aternary
ornull-coalesce
statement can be used, but it'll look a bit weird:
$product->product_image = $profileImage ? $profileImage : $product->product_image;
// OR
$product->product_image = $profileImage ?? $product->product_image;
Both of these cases will set$product->product_image
to$profileImage
, or the existing value of$product->profile_image
if nothing is provided (that will be an existing image ornull
)
