Re: Get Media URL in Magento 2 or calling a Static Block.

Sorry, I don't get what you are asking. Would you try to express differently what you want to archieve?

Re: Get Media URL in Magento 2 or calling a Static Block.

If I understood you correctly you would like to render image on one of your custom html template. In order to pass Media URL based on your domain you have to create ConfigProvider class and include into CompositeConfigProvider class from Magento\Checkout module.

 

 

    <type name="Magento\Checkout\Model\CompositeConfigProvider">
        <arguments>
            <argument name="configProviders" xsi:type="array">
                <item name="custom_config_provider" xsi:type="object">Vendor\Custom\Ui\ConfigProvider</item>
            </argument>
        </arguments>
    </type>

ConfigProvider class

namespace Vendor\Custom\Ui;

use Magento\Framework\App\Filesystem\DirectoryList;
use Magento\Framework\Filesystem;
use Magento\Checkout\Model\ConfigProviderInterface;

/**
 * Class ConfigProvider
 * @package     Vendor\Custom\Ui
 */
class ConfigProvider implements ConfigProviderInterface
{
    /**
     * @var Filesystem
     */
    private $filesystem;

    /**
     * ConfigProvider constructor.
     * @param Filesystem $filesystem
     */
    public function __construct(
        Filesystem $filesystem
    ) {
        $this->filesystem = $filesystem;
    }

    /**
     * @return array
     */
    public function getConfig()
    {
        return [
            'vendor_custom' => [
                'media_url' => $this->filesystem->getDirectoryWrite(DirectoryList::MEDIA)->getAbsolutePath('path/to/file.jpg')
            ]
        ];
    }
}

In your custom JavaScript file you can access Media URL like above:

 

 

define(['uiComponent'], function(Component) {
    var mediaUrl = window.checkoutProvider.vendor_custom.media_url;

    return Component.extend({
        defaults: {
            template: 'Vendor_Custom/template',
        },
        getMediaUrl: function() {
            return mediaUrl;
        }
    });
});

In template.html file simply use getMediaUrl() function.

 

<img data-bind="attr: {'src': getMediaUrl()}" />

Re: Get Media URL in Magento 2 or calling a Static Block.

Hi @soho_rize

 

This is an example of extending core functionality by following best practices in Magento 2. 

All the mentioned code should be placed into the new custom module created by you inside the Magento 2 project directory: magentoRoot/app/code/Vendor/ModuleName.

Where Vendor is a name of a namespace let's say your company name or last name and ModuleName is a name of a feature where all code will exist. For further guidance on module creation please read post Magento 2 module in a separate repository.

 

First xml should be added into the app/code/Vendor/ModuleName/etc/di.xml file.

ConfigProvider class should be placed app/code/Vendor/ModuleName/Ui/ConfigProvider file.

JavaScript should be placed into app/code/Vendor/ModuleName/view/frontend/web/js/template.js file.

The template.html should be placed into app/code/Vendor/ModuleName/view/frontend/web/template/template.html file.

 

You should also add custom declaration of the Checkout "component" into the  app/code/Vendor/ModuleName/view/frontend/layout/checkout_index_index.xml file. It should be something like this, of course it depends where do you want to include your Media URL

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" layout="checkout" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
    <body>
        <referenceBlock name="checkout.root">
            <arguments>
                <argument name="jsLayout" xsi:type="array">
                    <item name="components" xsi:type="array">
                        <item name="checkout" xsi:type="array">
                            <item name="children" xsi:type="array">
                                <item name="steps" xsi:type="array">

Re: Get Media URL in Magento 2 or calling a Static Block.

Open the /var/www/html/lloyds_dev/vendor/magento/framework/ObjectManager/Factory/AbstractFactory.php line 93 and check whether you have some file edits. The vendor directory should not be edited.

Re: Get Media URL in Magento 2 or calling a Static Block.

What version of PHP do you have? It seems like it might be 5.5 or even less if you experience this error.
