Magento – Magento 2, new widget with image chooser parameter, does not save picture

image-uploadmagento2widget

I create a new widget and one of the parameters is a picture chooser, I just use this code. Everything looks well. I can open media folder and choose the picture I want to use. When I choose the picture, the picture field on the form is filled with this value:

http://local.magento.com/admin/cms/wysiwyg/directive/___directive/e3ttZWRpYSB1cmw9Ind5c2l3eWcvcHVycGxlLmpwZyJ9fQ,,/key/4c150d984998702b74709bb8f05820aff2f85a968d47e50f9638b7d2a7b1ced3/

But when I save the form widget data, the picture field has this value:
{{media url=

nothing more. How can I solve this?

If you want to upload an image then why don't you use image selection button.?
If you like the editor then use it.But it is not a proper way to upload an image using an editor.You can use the button instead. If you don't know how to do it. Let me explain.

Here is my code. The below code is written in block file which creates a button.

$fieldset->addField(
        'image',
        'file',
        [
            'name' => 'image',
            'label' => __('Image'),
            'title' => __('Image'),
        ]
    );

Image is the database field name. In your case it's wysiwyg editor.I don't know the exact but once check in your database.

The below code is used to save the image in your table. Now put this code into your Controller. 

<?php
namespace Vendor\Module\Controller\Adminhtml\Slider;

use Magento\Framework\App\Filesystem\DirectoryList;

class Save extends \Magento\Backend\App\Action

{

protected $_mediaDirectory;
protected $_fileUploaderFactory;

public function __construct(
    \Magento\Backend\App\Action\Context $context,        
    \Magento\Framework\Filesystem $filesystem,
    \Magento\MediaStorage\Model\File\UploaderFactory $fileUploaderFactory
) 
{
    $this->_mediaDirectory = $filesystem->getDirectoryWrite(\Magento\Framework\App\Filesystem\DirectoryList::MEDIA);
    $this->_fileUploaderFactory = $fileUploaderFactory;
    parent::__construct($context);
}

public function execute()
{
    /*For Image Upload*/

    /** @var \Magento\Framework\Controller\Result\Redirect $resultRedirect */
    $resultRedirect = $this->resultRedirectFactory->create();

    try{
        $target = $this->_mediaDirectory->getAbsolutePath('imagefolder/');

        $targetOne = "imagefolder/";
        /** @var $uploader \Magento\MediaStorage\Model\File\Uploader */
        $uploader = $this->_fileUploaderFactory->create(['fileId' => 'image']);
        /** Allowed extension types */
        $uploader->setAllowedExtensions(['jpg', 'jpeg', 'gif', 'png', 'zip', 'doc']);
        /** rename file name if already exists */
        $uploader->setAllowRenameFiles(true);
        /** upload file in folder "mycustomfolder" */
        $result = $uploader->save($target);
        /*If file found then display message*/
        if ($result['file']) 
        {
            $this->messageManager->addSuccess(__('File has been successfully uploaded')); 
        }
    }
    catch (Exception $e) 
    {
        $this->messageManager->addError($e->getMessage());
    }
    /*For Image Upload Finished*/ 

    $data = $this->getRequest()->getPostValue();

    $data['image'] = $targetOne.$result['file'];

    if (!$data) {
        $this->_redirect('*/*/filenaem');
        return;
    }
    try {

        $rowData = $this->_objectManager->create('Vendor\Module\Model\Slider');

        $rowData->setData($data);

        if (isset($data['id'])) 
        {
            $rowData->setEntityId($data['id']);
        }
        $rowData->save();
        $this->messageManager->addSuccess(__('Row data has been successfully saved.'));
    } 
    catch (Exception $e) 
    {
        $this->messageManager->addError(__($e->getMessage()));
    }
    $this->_redirect('*/*/index');

    return $this->resultRedirectFactory->create()->setPath(
        '*/*/upload', ['_secure'=>$this->getRequest()->isSecure()]
    );
}

/**
 * Check Category Map permission.
 *
 * @return bool
 */
protected function _isAllowed()
{
    return $this->_authorization->isAllowed('Vendor_Module::Module_list');
}

}

After that you want to called it in phtml for the result..so bellow code write in phtml file.
Here is code.

    $collection = $block->getCollectionFor();
    $_objectManager = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance(); //instance of\Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager
    $storeManager = $_objectManager->get('Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface'); 
    $currentStore = $storeManager->getStore();
//Base URL for saving image into database.
    $mediaUrl = $currentStore->getBaseUrl(\Magento\Framework\UrlInterface::URL_TYPE_MEDIA);

getCollectionFor() is write in my block.so according to that, you should apply as your block file.
I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any query let me know.
