I would like to show a picture in HTML wich resides in SPIFFS.
I tried:
<img src=spiffss, ‘BulbOn.png’ alt=‘BulbOn’>
Any idea ?
as a source you just specify a filename, say, “BulbOn.png”. The WebServer library for ESP32 then has a general way of resolving a filename, or any path which is not explictily registered, to grab that from SPIFFS.
Sorry,
What I tried was not displayed correctly
Below my snippet:
client.println(" <img src='BulbOn.png' alt='BulbOn'>");
client.println(" <img src='/spiffs/BulbOn.png' alt='BulbOn'>");
client.println(" <img src= SPIFFS, '/BulbOn.png' alt='BulbOn'>");
How can i refer to a file in spiffs from HTML ?
Any idea ?
Just use their bare filename, BulbOn.png, it’s the easiest way. The code and library above will look in the root of the SPIFFS partition (which technically is /spiffs) and find the file in there if it exists. No need to give it the full path.
Sorry, I can’t get it work.
At start of my program I list the content of spiffs:
FILE: /BulbOff.png
FILE: /BulbOn.png
By viewing the webpage I can see the placeholder.
Examining the link of this: “http://192.168.178.28/BulbOn.png”
I really appriciate your help,
Henk
The correct workings of this depends on the code and used libraries. Please show your platformio.ini and your code.

Looks like you didn’t close the img tag… missing a “>” character after the file name.
I don’t see anything in the server code that would handle the URL:
It handles these URLs:
- http://192.168.178.28
- http://192.168.178.28/Groen/aan
- http://192.168.178.28/Groen/uit
- http://192.168.178.28/Rood/aan
- http://192.168.178.28/Rood/uit
Nothing that says what to do with “BulbOn.png” like a
server.streamFile(file, contentType);
or something.
Also adding:
server.on(); and server.onNotFound(); would be useful…
@devon_heron: You are right but inserting the “>” did not help.
@solaria8: No, You are right, that code is not implemented.
Lower in the code, where the HTML-page resides, is an outdented line which should reflect my test.
I strongly suggest against using the raw WiFiSever and WiFIClient classes to implement a HTTP server. This is 1. extremely error prone and 2. waaaay to complicated to implement once the logic grows bigger. You should use the WebServer.h library I’ve linked above through which you can construct a WebServer server(80); object and handle HTTP requests, especially those which can then be routed to the SPIFFS, more easily.
I can also create a reference project.
Do you mean this?
All that does is tell the client (your browser) to send a request to URL
‘http://192.168.178.28/BulbOn.png’ for an image. The server needs to do something with that request. Something like this should work:
//--------------------------------------------
void httpDownload() {
File capture = SDcardOpen("BulbOn.png");
server.setContentLength(SDcardData.size);
server.sendHeader("Content-Type","image/png",true);
server.streamFile(capture, "image/png");
capture.close();
}
…assuming server.on ("BulbOn.png", httpDownload);
edit: except using SPIFFS instead of SDcard…
Still not found a solution about:
Why will show up flat text:
client.println(" <p>Led_Rood uit</p>");
and why does not show a image from spiffs root:
client.println(" <p><img src='BulbOff.png'></p>");
<p> is just a paragraph text with plain text inside. (If you don’t do special CSS styling with it).
You need to have code logic that handles a request to the PNG file.
Let me construct a quick example of how things should be done with the library I mentioned.
