I have an image UI component on my page. Can I not just insert a ng-src = {{item.filename}} and get an image displayed.

I have a field in the DB / collection called "file" and I can add another field "filename", but what is the right way to refer to the file.

Any other easy ways?

Thanks!

Hello,

Sure, it is possible. Please use links to that images, like:
$scope.item.filename = "files/images/fileName.jpg";

here fileName.jpg = name of the image from Media Manager

I have put ng-src = {{pic.ImageName}}

And in init after invoking the service, I have this code
function(success) {
$scope.pic = success.data;
var fname = "files/images/"+$scope.pic.ImageName;
alert(fname);
$scope.pic.ImageName=fname;
},

The alert correctly displays the filename. But the image does not display.

On Rt-click - "Open image in new tab", I get Page not found.

Thanks for your above response, and hope to hear from you.

Please set your app public (https://devcenter.appery.io/documenta...)

Done

If it is possible to answer in this same question, I would also like to know

1. if the image can be made clickable
2. and on click, if it can be opened using the default image viewer of the system (android, ios, ..)

Are you sure this image is exist in the Media Manager? Could you send us screen shot with it?

You can open an image in new tab to display it in the image viewer, e.g.: http://community.phonegap.com/nitobi/...

you are brilliant - accidentally i had deleted that image, now it works. sorry about that.

Opening in system viewer - doesn't seem to work - would you be please able to check.

Thanks!

Please try several 3rd-part plugins, for that, e.g.:

As per documentation at https://devcenter.appery.io/documenta..., in section "Direct link to a file", its described that I can access the Files by using a URL in this format -
https://api.appery.io/rest/1/db/files...=

I was able to access the file

I got the the filename from the Predefined collections - Files - File name field.

userSessionToken and masterKey is optional.

Just some additional information if it helps anyone.
