'file' => 'required|image|mimes:jpg,jpeg,png,gif,svg|max:4096',
]);
$image = $request->file('file');
$input['file'] = time().'.'.$image->getClientOriginalExtension();
$imgFile = Image::make($image->getRealPath());
$imgFile->text('© 2017-2021 geeksforgeeks.org - All Rights Reserved', 120, 100, function($font) {
$font->size(35);
$font->color('#ffffff');
$font->align('center');
$font->valign('bottom');
$font->angle(90);
})->save(public_path('/uploads').'/'.$input['file']);
return back()
->with('success','File successfully uploaded.')
->with('fileName',$input['file']);
}
}

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="{{ str_replace('_', '-', app()->getLocale()) }}">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
