I'm new to Django and I've been trying to get my images to show on a site I'm building.
On my templates I use <img src="{{ model.image.url }}" />
and I get the MEDIA_URL
+ IMAGE_PATH
.
Something like this: upload/gallery/zips/thumbnails/zips.png
. upload/
is my MEDIA_URL
.
How can I get my url to look something like: http://127.0.0.1:8000/upload/gallery/zips/thumbnails/zips.png
without having to append it like this:
<img src="http://127.0.0.1:8000/{{ gallery.thumbnail.url }}" />
?
So sorry if this is the stupidest question ever asked on SO.
You can prepend your media url using the request object:
<img src="{{ request.get_host }}{{ model.image.url }}" />
*Note - you'll want to make sure you have request
in your template context processors:
'django.template.context_processors.request'
