How do I set the absolute path for an image?

Question

I use image upload default ckeditor and IMCE module for drupal 8. But both of them return relative paths.

Output code actual relative path:

<img src="/sites/default/files/Images/image1.jpg">

Output code expected absolute path:

<img src="http://example.com/sites/default/files/Images/image1.jpg">

How to correct it?

Why would you not want relative pathing? As soon as you pull down the code/db to another environment or working locally, the images won't work (or load extremely slowly because you're pulling them across the network). — Kevin, Jun 27, 2017 at 23:58

IMCE has a checkbox setting to enable absolute paths in configuration page

Step to set absolute path of image in ckeditor.

Firstly install and enable Module.
Go to the editor setting "admin/config/content/formats/manage/basic_html" In CKEditor plugin settings disable "Enable image uploads Disable to use IMCE file browser." checkbox.

3.Go to IMCE setting page "admin/config/media/imce" and "Enable absolute URLs" checkbox in conman settings section.
