It command will create one model name Image and also create one migration file for Image table. After successfully run the command go to database/migrations file and put the below here :
<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
class CreateImagesTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create('images', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->increments('image');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('images');
}
}
Next, migrate the table using the below command :

php artisan make:controller ImageController
After successfully create controller. Navigate to app/http/controllers folder and ImageController.php. Then add the following code into your ImageController.php:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Validator,Redirect,Response,File;
use App\Image;
class ImageController extends Controller
{
public function index()
{
return view('image');
}
public function save(Request $request)
{
request()->validate([
'image' => 'required',
'image.*' => 'image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg|max:2048'
]);
if ($image = $request->file('image')) {
foreach ($image as $files) {
$destinationPath = 'public/image/'; // upload path
$profileImage = date('YmdHis') . "." . $files->getClientOriginalExtension();
$files->move($destinationPath, $profileImage);
$insert[]['image'] = "$profileImage";
}
}
$check = Image::insert($insert);
return Redirect::to("image")->withSuccess('Great! Image has been successfully uploaded.');
}
}
Step7: Create Blade view

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge">
