Hello,
I have an issue after migrating part of my project to Liferay 7.2.1 DXP from 7.0.6. Basically we used to get the web content image path using following code (more or less)
ocument myDocument = SAXReaderUtil.read(article.getContentByLocale(locale.toString()));
Node imageField = NodeContent.getSingleNode(document, "Image");
NodeContent.getStringContentValue(imageField)
And it worked fine but unfortunately it doesn't in 7.2.1 DXP. After trying to figure out what's going on I found that the XML looks different for images in web contents in Liferay 7 and Liferay 7.2.
Basically in Liferay 7 I have something like:
I guess it might have changed because of the adaptive images but anyway I'd like to know how can I get the image source from the code? I guess I could parse the JSON and fetch the image based on the informations there but is there any better way? Parsing JSON String to get values for getting image path seems a little bit complicated comparing to an old way
Best regards

Basically in Liferay 7 I have something like:
<dynamic-content language-id="en_US" alt="" name="XXX.png" title="XXX.png" type="document" [url=http://fileEntryId="12345"><![CDATA[/documents/111/222/XXX.png/QQQQQQ-WWWW-EEEE-CCCC-DDDDDDD?t=1588696601862]]></dynamic-content>And in Liferay 7.2.1 I have:
<dynamic-content [url=http://language-id="en_US"><![CDATA[{"groupId":"126435","alt":"","name":"XXX.png","title":"XXX.png","type":"journal","uuid":"QQQQ-WWW-EEE-CCC-ec48068bbf39","fileEntryId":"716022","resourcePrimKey":"716460"}]]></dynamic-content>So before the image source was there and that's why my code worked. Now instead of the source I have JSON with informations about the image.

Hi Rafał,First of all, it's good to see a new Liferay face from Poland 
They changed the way of storing document data in Web Contents at some point, I think now it's actually better because it gives you more data about stored file right in the template context. I retrieved the image from Web Content in one of the FTL templates in the following way:
It is easily translatable to java, as it does not use any freemarker-specific features, only regular Java stuff. All the URL generation magic happens in getDownloadURL method.

<#assign JSONFactoryUtil = staticUtil["com.liferay.portal.kernel.json.JSONFactoryUtil"] />
<#assign DLAppLocalServiceUtil = staticUtil["com.liferay.document.library.kernel.service.DLAppLocalServiceUtil"]>
<#assign DLUtil = staticUtil["com.liferay.document.library.kernel.util.DLUtil"] />
...
<#assign jsonDlFileEntryAsString = docXml.valueOf("//dynamic-element[@name='library_document']/dynamic-content/text()") />
<#assign jsonDlFileEntry = JSONFactoryUtil.createJSONObject(jsonDlFileEntryAsString) />
<#assign fileEntry = DLAppLocalServiceUtil.getFileEntryByUuidAndGroupId(
jsonDlFileEntry.getString("uuid"),
jsonDlFileEntry.getString("groupId")?number) >
<#assign viewURL = DLUtil.getDownloadURL(fileEntry, fileEntry.getLatestFileVersion(true), themeDisplay, "") />
It is easily translatable to java, as it does not use any freemarker-specific features, only regular Java stuff. All the URL generation magic happens in getDownloadURL method.
