reactjs

Hello, welcome to therichpost.com. In this post, I will tell you, How to upload image with react js and php?  Reactjs is a Javascript Library to build user interface.

We will upload image through reactjs in php with move_uploaded_file function in php and this is very interesting. 

I did react js and php collaboration in my post and this is very good. 

Here is the working and tested code in reactjs and you can add this into your index.js file:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import axios from 'axios';
class Hello extends React.Component{
  state = {
    selectedFile : null
  }
  fileSelect = event => {
    this.setState({selectedFile: event.target.files[0]})
    console.log(event.target.files[0])
  }
  fileUpload = () => {
    const fd = new FormData();
    fd.append('image', this.state.selectedFile, this.state.selectedFile.name);
    axios.post('http://localhost/core_php.php', fd

    ).then(res=>
    {
    console.log(res);
    }
    );
    
  }
  render() {
    return (
  <div>
    <input type="file" onChange = {this.fileSelect} />
  <button onClick = {this.fileUpload}>Upload</button>
  </div>
    );
  }
  }

  ReactDOM.render(<Hello />, document.getElementById('root'));
 Here is the code for php and you can add this into your code_php.file and you also need to make img folder also:
<?php 
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["image"]["tmp_name"], "img/" . $_FILES["image"]["name"]);
?>

 If you have any query related to this code and you can comment below. I will come with more reactjs posts.

  1. excuse me, i have error “const fd = new FormData();” not found when i compiled

  2. I am getting null $_FILES[“image”][“name”] or in $_FILES[“image”] …….. can you please help me what is the problem????

  3. fd.append(‘image’ what does ‘image’ signify, can we write something else.

  4. I am getting this error Access to XMLHttpRequest at ‘http://woonext.local/reactimageupload.php’ from origin ‘http://localhost:3000’ has been blocked by CORS policy: No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource.

  5. Please add this line below at the top of your php script file
    Header(“Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *”);
