Laravel - relative path in public folder

I am using tinymce editor to upload image into my server, and I am having problem with setting to the path. In postAcceptor.php located in /public, it will be uploading an image into the folder /articles/assets/images/ inside /public.

In web.php, I am using Route::get('/articles/{id}', function(){...}) to display an image that was already uploaded in the server. However, the image indicates wrong source so that it cannot display the image. Its source is supposed to be:-

localhost:8000/articles/assets/images/fragment%20life%20cycle.png

But, actually, it indicates to:-

localhost:8000/articles **/articles**/assets/images/fragment%20life%20cycle.png

postAcceptor.php

<?php
  /*******************************************************
   * Only these origins will be allowed to upload images *
   ******************************************************/
  $accepted_origins = array("http://localhost:8000", "http://192.168.1.1", "http://example.com");

  /*********************************************
   * Change this line to set the upload folder *
   *********************************************/
  $today = date("y-m-d");
  $imageFolder = "articles/assets/images/";

  reset ($_FILES);
  $temp = current($_FILES);
  if (is_uploaded_file($temp['tmp_name'])){
    if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'])) {
      // same-origin requests won't set an origin. If the origin is set, it must be valid.
      if (in_array($_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'], $accepted_origins)) {
        header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: ' . $_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN']);
      } else {
        header("HTTP/1.1 403 Origin Denied");
        return;
      }
    }

    /*
      If your script needs to receive cookies, set images_upload_credentials : true in
      the configuration and enable the following two headers.
    */
    // header('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true');
    // header('P3P: CP="There is no P3P policy."');

    // Sanitize input
    if (preg_match("/([^\w\s\d\-_~,;:\[\]\(\).])|([\.]{2,})/", $temp['name'])) {
        header("HTTP/1.1 400 Invalid file name.");
        return;
    }

    // Verify extension
    if (!in_array(strtolower(pathinfo($temp['name'], PATHINFO_EXTENSION)), array("gif", "jpg", "png"))) {
        header("HTTP/1.1 400 Invalid extension.");
        return;
    }

    // Accept upload if there was no origin, or if it is an accepted origin
    $filetowrite = $imageFolder . $temp['name'];
    move_uploaded_file($temp['tmp_name'], $filetowrite);


    // Respond to the successful upload with JSON.
    // Use a location key to specify the path to the saved image resource.
    // { location : '/your/uploaded/image/file'}
    echo json_encode(array('location' => $filetowrite));
  } else {
    // Notify editor that the upload failed
    header("HTTP/1.1 500 Server Error");
  }
?>

Is there any way to solve this problem, or any clue for absoulte or relative path?

/public folder

Upload success

/articles/44 - displaying image page

image src

Laravel comes built with path helpers that you can use to ensure you always get the right path to where you want things to go.

Try changing 

$imageFolder = "articles/assets/images/";

to 

$imageFolder = public_path("articles/assets/images/");
