[FIXED] Determining If a File Exists in Laravel 5

Issue

Goal : If the file exist, load the file, else load the default.png.

---

I've tried

  @if(file_exists(public_path().'/images/photos/account/{{Auth::user()->account_id}}.png'))
    <img src="/images/photos/account/{{Auth::user()->account_id}}.png" alt="">
  @else
    <img src="/images/photos/account/default.png" alt="">
  @endif

---

Result

It kept load my default image while I'm 100% sure that 1002.png is exist.

How do I properly check if that file is exist ?

Solution

Solution

      @if(file_exists( public_path().'/images/photos/account/'.Auth::user()->account_id.'.png' ))
        <img src="/images/photos/account/{{Auth::user()->account_id}}.png" alt="">
      @else
        <img src="/images/photos/account/default.png" alt="">
      @endif
