How to get the media folder URL programmatically in Magento 2

November 2, 2015 - Magento 2

Magento 2 Development

Magento 2 uses the pub/media folder for storing images and other media data. The following function returns its url for the current store:

/** @return string */
function getMediaBaseUrl() {
/** @var \Magento\Framework\ObjectManagerInterface $om */
$om = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance();
/** @var \Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface $storeManager */
$storeManager = $om->get('Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface');
/** @var \Magento\Store\Api\Data\StoreInterface|\Magento\Store\Model\Store $currentStore */
$currentStore = $storeManager->getStore();
return $currentStore->getBaseUrl(\Magento\Framework\UrlInterface::URL_TYPE_MEDIA);
}

/** @return string */

function getMediaBaseUrl() {

/** @var \Magento\Framework\ObjectManagerInterface $om */

$om = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance();

/** @var \Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface $storeManager */

$storeManager = $om->get('Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface');

/** @var \Magento\Store\Api\Data\StoreInterface|\Magento\Store\Model\Store $currentStore */

$currentStore = $storeManager->getStore();

return $currentStore->getBaseUrl(\Magento\Framework\UrlInterface::URL_TYPE_MEDIA);

}

The getBaseUrl method is absent in \Magento\Store\Api\Data\StoreInterface. It is represented only in particular interface implementations.
