Image Manipulation Class

[Henqsan]

Hello!

I am trying to implement the image manipulation library in my controller. But when I try to use the base_url() path, the library cannot find the path!

$path_save = base_url('assets/images/test.jpg');

            $image = \Config\Services::image()
           ->withFile($image_file->getTempName())
           ->fit(100, 100, 'center')
           ->save($path_save);

What is the difference in using the path to the directory where the image will be saved like this:

base_url('assets/images/test.jpg')

and this way:

'../public/assets/images/test.jpg'

Is there a correct way to indicate the directory path to save the image?

Support questions belong on the forums. Briefly: public/ should not be part of your URL path - you should be serving it as your root such that the image would be at "http://example.com/assets/images/test.jpg". If you cannot modify the web server you need to use .htaccess or equivalent to adjust the path.
