How do you get the path to the Laravel Storage folder

Question

I want to store uploaded images to my Laravel-based web app in a subdirectory of the Laravel storage directory. It's the directory at the same hierarchy level as the 'application' and 'public' directories.

Is there a framework method for doing this?

Hello @kartik,

In Laravel 3, call path('storage').

In Laravel 4, use the storage_path() helper function.

For Laravel 5.x, use $storage_path = storage_path().

Hope it helps!!
Thank you!
