Get Direct URL for uploads in search - Wagtail

I have customized my search to look at images and documents as part of that search. This is working fine. However I am not sure how to get the URL to the uploaded images/documents that are returned. Ideally there would be a link to download/display in browser. I am ok with the ../media/images/xxx url. But I can't seem to figure out how to get that data in the template. Thoughts? Search is performed by this.

    # Search
if search_query:
    results = []
    page_results = Page.objects.live().search(search_query)
    if page_results:
        results.append({'page': page_results})
    doc_results = Document.objects.all().search(search_query)
    if doc_results:
        results.append({'docs': doc_results})
    img_results = Image.objects.all().search(search_query)
    if img_results:
        results.append({'image': img_results})
    search_results = list(chain(page_results, doc_results, img_results))
    query = Query.get(search_query)

    # Record hit
    query.add_hit()
else:
    search_results = Page.objects.none()

And the html looks like this

    {% if search_results %}

{{ count }} results found.
    {% for result in search_results %}
        {% for k, v in result.items %}
            {% if k == 'page' %}
                {% for item in v %}
                    <p>
                    <h4><a href="{% pageurl item %}">{{ item }}</a></h4>
                    Type: Article<br>
                    Author: {{ item.specific.owner.get_full_name }}<br>
                    Publish Date: {{ item.specific.last_published_at}} 
                    </p>
                {% endfor %}

            {% elif k == 'docs' %}
                {% for item in v %}
                    <p>
                    <h4><a href="">{{ item.title }}</a></h4>
                    Type: Document<br>
                    Publish Date: {{ item.created_at }}
                    </p>
                {% endfor %}
            {% elif k == 'image' %}
                {% for item in v %}
                    <p>
                    <h4><a href="">{{ item.title }}</a></h4>
                    Type: Image<br>
                    Publish Date: {{ item.created_at }}
                    </p>
                {% endfor %}
            {% endif%}
        {% endfor %}
    {% endfor %}


    {% if search_results.has_previous %}
        <a href="{% url 'search' %}?query={{ search_query|urlencode }}&amp;page={{ search_results.previous_page_number }}">Previous</a>
    {% endif %}

    {% if search_results.has_next %}
        <a href="{% url 'search' %}?query={{ search_query|urlencode }}&amp;page={{ search_results.next_page_number }}">Next</a>
    {% endif %}
{% elif search_query %}
    No results found
{% endif %}

Django provides the url property to files and images, and wagtail has this also.

{{ item.url }}

Wagtail has a great support for the redirect to files and integrates django-sendfile as well. Both of these methods allow for image downloading.

https://docs.wagtail.io/en/stable/advanced_topics/images/image_serve_view.html

from wagtail.images.views.serve import ServeView

urlpatterns = [ ...

re_path(r'^images/([^/]*)/(\d*)/([^/]*)/[^/]*$', ServeView.as_view(action='redirect'), name='wagtailimages_serve'),

]

** Edit below Generating the image “as foo” to access individual properties - access the underlying image instance

{% image item original as item_img %}

{{ item_img.url }}
