Path to images not working in my Angular 4 file

Question

I am a beginner in learning angular 4 framework and have seen all the threads regarding this problem on stackoverflow but the solutions given in them not able to solve my problem.

I am getting this error "http://localhost:4200/src/assets/images/1.jpg 404 (Not Found)" .All other things are working fine but only image is not getting loaded. I am giving my .angular-cli.json code and my custom made component code where i given my img tag.

My custom component code:-

import { Component } from '@angular/core';


@Component({
    selector:'my-comp',
    template:`<button (mousemove)="clicked($event)">{{name1}}</button>
                <div *ngIf="applyDiv==false">WTF</div>
                <ul>
                    <li *ngFor="let i of a;let j=index">{{j}}.{{i}}</li>
                </ul>    

                <img src="../../src/assets/images/1.jpg" alt="Ms dhoni" width="2000" height="2000"/>
                <input type="text" name="Sahil" value="sahil"/>
                <div [class.myClass]="myclass">Apply Class</div>
                <div [style.color]="applyBlue?'blue':'yellow'">Starting Angualr</div>`,
    styleUrls:['./hello.component.css']


})

export class HelloComponent {
    name='Angular1';
    myclass=true;
    applyBlue=true;
    name1=0;
    applyDiv=false;
    a=[1,'2','3iituit'];
    clicked(event){
        console.log(event.target);
        this.name1++;
    }
   // name1:string="sahil";
    //logo="../../assets/images/mov2.jpg";
}

My code .angular-cli.json:-

{
  "$schema": "./node_modules/@angular/cli/lib/config/schema.json",
  "project": {
    "name": "my-app"

  },
  "apps": [
    {
      "root": "src",
      "outDir": "dist",
      "assets": [

        "assets/images",
        "favicon.ico"
      ],
      "index": "index.html",
      "main": "main.ts",
      "polyfills": "polyfills.ts",
      "test": "test.ts",
      "tsconfig": "tsconfig.app.json",
      "testTsconfig": "tsconfig.spec.json",
      "prefix": "app",
      "styles": [
        "styles.css"
      ],
      "scripts": [],
      "environmentSource": "environments/environment.ts",
      "environments": {
        "dev": "environments/environment.ts",
        "prod": "environments/environment.prod.ts"
      }
    }
  ],
  "e2e": {
    "protractor": {
      "config": "./protractor.conf.js"
    }
  },
  "lint": [
    {
      "project": "src/tsconfig.app.json",
      "exclude": "**/node_modules/**"
    },
    {
      "project": "src/tsconfig.spec.json",
      "exclude": "**/node_modules/**"
    },
    {
      "project": "e2e/tsconfig.e2e.json",
      "exclude": "**/node_modules/**"
    }
  ],
  "test": {
    "karma": {
      "config": "./karma.conf.js"
    }
  },
  "defaults": {
    "styleExt": "css",
    "component": {
    }
  }
}

Can anyone tell me what is the problem here. Thanks in advance!!

Answer 1

You are supposed to put images in the assets folder that is inside src folder then you can specify path as assets/../image.png

Answer 2

Assuming that your HelloComponent is inside the "src > app" folder, the following tag should display the image:

<img src="../../assets/images/1.jpg" 
          alt="Ms dhoni" 
          width="2000" height="2000"/>

If it still doesn't show, then if you are using an IDE fir development, drag the image from the assets folder and drop it in one of the .html file inside tge app folder. Check the image src path there.

Answer 3

Try increasing the dimensions of the image in paint. I had an image in the path src/assets/Library/Images with dimensions 60 x 45 which did not load and an image with dimensions 225 x 225 which loaded successfully. Hope this helps !
