Get the src of the image field in a view in drupal

Question

We were working with Drupal 7 and trying to rewrite the views output

We need the src of the image field , not the whole image tag.

Clicking on

Rewrite the output of this field

[field_first_image] : Gives the whole content ie with tag ,

We tried to display the below ones

[field_first_image-fid] == Raw fid

[field_first_image-alt] == Raw alt

[field_first_image-title] == Raw title

But the same ( [field_first_image-fid] ) thing is displayed in the view. Is there a way we can get the src from the views rewrite ?

Answer 1

If you don't want to need to install a module for this, there is a solution.

• Create a new relationship
• Select your image field (this will create a relationship to the file entity)
• Add a field to your view
• Select File: Path
• Check Display download path instead of file storage URI

Note that this will create a URL to the original image, not to an image produced when applying an image style (like cropping, resizing etc.) so this may not work in every scenario.
