Save Image As:
Convert any image file using html input element to JPG
, PNG
or WEBP
in browser to optionally to Base64, Buffer or Binary format.
How To Use
Get this package from npm:
npm install save-image-as
or yarn add save-image-as
If you do not have a build routine (webpack, rollout etc.) simply include save-image-as script over an cdn in your html file for example :
<script src="https://unpkg.com/save-image-as@latest/dist/save-image-as.js"></script>
.
See Sample Codes:
In all JavaScript frame works (ReactJS, Angular, Vue ,etc) import this package like this:
import {PNG, /*JPG,WEBP*/} from "save-image-as"
then assign onChange method as your file input's onChange evant handler.
Then :
1- Create constructor with (or with defaults) options:
const toArrayBuffer = saveImageAs.PNG(200, .5,0);
const toBinary = saveImageAs.PNG(200, .5,1);
const toBase64 = saveImageAs.PNG(200, .5,2);
2- Create Custom handler for using image data
function myCustomImageHandler(event){
// Get File Content as
toArrayBuffer.onChange(event)
.then(data=>{
// Use your Array Buffer formatted data as you like
});
// Get File Content as Binary String
toBinary.onChange(event)
.then(data=>{
// Use your Binary String formatted data as you like
});
// Get File Content as base64 string
toBase64.onChange(event)
.then(data=>{
// Use your base64 formatted data as you like
});
// Get File Content as text
toText.onChange(event)
.then(data=>{
// Use your text data as you like
});
}
3- Assign myCustomImageHandler
to file upload element's onChange
method:
const fileInput = document.getElementById("upload");
fileInput.addEventListener("change",myCustomImageHandler);
