Step 2: Create Routes

Here, we will add new routes for image upload. so open routes.php file and add code like as bellow:

application/config/routes.php

<?php

defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');


$route['default_controller'] = 'welcome';

$route['404_override'] = '';

$route['translate_uri_dashes'] = FALSE;


$route['image-upload'] = 'ImageUpload';

$route['image-upload/post']['post'] = "ImageUpload/uploadImage";

Step 3: Create ImageUpload Controller

now, we have to create “ImageUpload” controller with index(), uploadImage() and resizeImage(). so create ImageUpload.php file in this path application/controllers/ImageUpload.php and put bellow code in this file:

application/controllers/ImageUpload.php

<?php

class ImageUpload extends CI_Controller {

/**

* Manage __construct

*

* @return Response

*/

public function __construct() {

parent::__construct();

$this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));

}

/**

* Manage index

*

* @return Response

*/

public function index() {

$this->load->view('imageUploadForm', array('error' => '' ));

}

/**

* Manage uploadImage

*

* @return Response

*/

public function uploadImage() {

$config['upload_path'] = './uploads/';

$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';

$config['max_size'] = 1024;

$this->load->library('upload', $config);

if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload('image')) {

$error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());

$this->load->view('imageUploadForm', $error);

}else {

$uploadedImage = $this->upload->data();

$this->resizeImage($uploadedImage['file_name']);

print_r('Image Uploaded Successfully.');

exit;

}

}

/**

* Manage uploadImage

*

* @return Response

*/

public function resizeImage($filename)

{

$source_path = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/uploads/' . $filename;

$target_path = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/uploads/';

$config_manip = array(

'image_library' => 'gd2',

'source_image' => $source_path,

'new_image' => $target_path,

'maintain_ratio' => TRUE,

'width' => 500,

);

$this->load->library('image_lib', $config_manip);

if (!$this->image_lib->resize()) {

echo $this->image_lib->display_errors();

}

$this->image_lib->clear();

}

}

?>

Step 4: Create View File

In this step we will create imageUploadForm.php view file . In this file we will write design of html form using form helper and url helper. So let’s update following file:

application/views/imageUploadForm.php

Also see:Codeigniter – Upload Multiple File and Image Example

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>

<title>Codeigniter Compress Image Size Example</title>

</head>

<body>

<?php echo $error;?>

<form method='post' action='/image-upload/post' enctype='multipart/form-data'>

<input type="file" name="image" size="20" />

<input type="submit" value="upload" />

</form>

</body>

</html>

Now we are ready to run our example.

Now we need to create two folder. First you have to create “uploads”.

After you run you will get image with resize.

You can download whole code from here: Download Code from Github

So let’s run and see.
