  $article = new Carouseleinfos();
  if ($request->hasFile('images')) {
      $dir = public_path('/images/carousele');
      $extension = strtolower($request->file('images')->getClientOriginalExtension()); // get image extension
      $fileName = str_random() . '.' . $extension; // rename image
      $path_image = $dir . $fileName;
      $request->file('images')->move($dir, $fileName);
      $image->images = $fileName;

  }
    $article->text1 = $request->get('text1');
    $article->text2 = $request->get('text2');
    $article->images = str_slug($request->get('images')); // возможно тут сохранить путь к файлу  $path_image
    $article->textbutton = $request->get('textbutton');
    $article->linkbutton = $request->get('linkbutton');

    $article->save();
    return view('crud_4/index');
}
