Plug.Static and how to serve files?

Let’s say I configure some of the assets (user uploads) to be served at /uploads:

plug Plug.Static,
  at: "/uploads",
  from: {:my_app, Application.fetch_env!(:my_app, :uploads_directory)}

plug Plug.Static,
  at: "/",
  from: :my_app
  only: ~w(css fonts images js favicon.ico robots.txt)

How do I create img elements (for those user uploads) using that configuration? I guess there is a way to not hardcode “/uploads” for all the src attributes for the uploads?

Imagine I change the :at path from “/uploads” to something else, if I hardcoded “/uploads” in my img elements, I would have a huge application-wide refactor.

First Post!

Wrap whatever you do with the paths of files in a function and use that function.
