Using images not from the file system

[fsuter]

When using images from a FAL storage other than the local file system, the images will have public URLs which are absolute URLs. In file rte-ckeditor-image/Resources/Public/JavaScript/Plugins/typo3image.js, when an image in inserted, the protocol/domain part is stripped with method urlToRelative which is okay when the file is local, but definitely not when the file is on some remote server (e.g. a S3 server).

I'm not sure how to fix this at best, as there could be side effects. In my case, since all files are on a S3 server, I just patched the JS to change line 267 from:

src: urlToRelative(getImg.url),

to

src: getImg.url,

@fssuter Can you add your version numbers (TYPO3 and rte_ckeditor_image)? I assume, this issue still exists but some things have changed between TYPO3 versions.

[fsuter]

I'm using TYPO3 11.5.24 and rte_ckeditor_image version 11.0.6

Indeed there seems to have been a lot of changes since then...

shouldn't the storage be responsible to deliver the domain?

[fsuter]

That's not the issue (or I misunderstand your question). In the case of the S3 driver that I am using, it provides correct, fully qualified URIs to the images in the "publicUrl" property, but that is then "truncated" in the extension's JS.

[DavidBruchmann]

ok, then I misunderstood the problem.

@fsuter does the problem still exist ?

[fsuter]

Sorry for not following up, I only recently got to putting the web site where I had the problem through a major update.

The problem does not exist anymore, although the code that originally caused the problem is still there. So I don't really understand why, but it works.

[fsuter]

Actually the problem still exists. I'm not sure how I missed it. The fix I proposed is still valid as far as I'm concerned, but I don't know if it may have side effects. One sure thing is that this is the only use of function urlToRelative(), but it was certainly introduced in the first place for a reason.

At least, images from a local storage like "fileadmin" still work fine after the change.
