I have an jpeg image and I am trying to get the base64 encoded string with both javascript & php.
function getBase64Image(img) {
var canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
canvas.width = img.width;
canvas.height = img.height;
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0);
var dataURL = canvas.toDataURL("image/jpg");
return dataURL.replace(/^data:image\/(png|jpg);base64,/, "");
}
var base64 = getBase64Image(document.getElementById('myImg'));
console.log(base64)
Here is the javascript fiddle.
Now, with the same image with php code
$url = "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b6/SIPI_Jelly_Beans_4.1.07.tiff/lossy-page1-256px-SIPI_Jelly_Beans_4.1.07.tiff.jpg"
var_dump(base64_encode(file_get_contents($url));
// The Javascript result:
"iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUh......LGoT8H4JpIaDthj+xAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC"
// The PHP result:
"/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQA......nbKBwJCElGEDnboCdvdE5pDlGThLlNC/9k="
I made the changes in Javascript that #JaromandaX suggested, now the Javascript string's beginning looks similar but not the end.
var dataURL = canvas.toDataURL("image/jpeg");
return dataURL.replace(/^data:image\/(png|jpeg);base64,/, "");
New Javascript Output:
"/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQA......A4EhCSjCBzt0BO3uic0hyjccJcpoX//2Q=="
The issue is, you're reading a jpeg into the canvas, then producing the jpeg from the canvas ... so there's some processing going on (jpeg quality setting for example would be different)
To get identical results in javascript, simply don't use a canvas - fetch the image, and using Blob + FileReader, extract the base64
fetch('https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b6/SIPI_Jelly_Beans_4.1.07.tiff/lossy-page1-256px-SIPI_Jelly_Beans_4.1.07.tiff.jpg').then(r => r.blob()).then(blob => {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function() {
var b64 = reader.result.replace(/^data:.+;base64,/, '');
console.log(`${b64.slice(0,20)}...${b64.slice(-20)}`);
};
reader.readAsDataURL(blob);
});
As #JaromandaX suggested in the comments,
"One is the direct file from the source (PHP) ... the other is a canvas - so, some "processing" has been done most likely"
Using this chunk gives the exact same base64 string:
var url = document.getElementById('myImg').getAttribute('src')
var xmlHTTP = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlHTTP.open('GET', url, true);
xmlHTTP.responseType = 'arraybuffer';
xmlHTTP.onload = function(e) {
var arr = new Uint8Array(this.response);
var raw = String.fromCharCode.apply(null,arr);
var b64 = btoa(raw);
var dataURL="data:image/png;base64," + b64;
console.log(b64)
};
xmlHTTP.send();
I am streaming ArrayBuffers from a python server and am trying to interpret each one as an image on the client side with javascript. They are being received as arraybuffers in javascript. However I cant get them to be readable by the image tags src attribute. I have tried generating them into Blob objects then using window.URL.createObjectURL(blob). That hasnt work either.
The blob url looks like this blob:null/e2836074-64b5-4959-8211-da2fc24c35a6 is that wrong?
Does any have any suggestions/know a solution.
Thanks a lot.
var arrayBuffer = new Uint8Array(stream.data);
var blob = new Blob([arrayBuffer], {type: "image/jpeg"});
var urlCreator = window.URL || window.webkitURL;
var imageUrl = urlCreator.createObjectURL( blob );
console.log(imageUrl);
img.src = imageUrl;
array buffer image
If you have any control over things, you should use the responseType of blob on your Javascript call. This will let you use the data you are getting from your server directly instead of attempting to access it via an ArrayBuffer
See the following fiddle for an example: https://jsfiddle.net/ort74gmp/
// Simulate a call to Dropbox or other service that can
// return an image as a blob
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
// Use JSFiddle logo as a sample image to avoid complicating
// this example with cross-domain issues.
xhr.open( "GET", "https://fiddle.jshell.net/img/logo.png", true );
// Ask for the result as an ArrayBuffer.
xhr.responseType = "blob";
xhr.onload = function( e ) {
var blob = this.response;
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function() {
var dataURL = reader.result;
document.querySelector('#photo').src = dataURL;
}
reader.readAsDataURL(blob);
};
xhr.send();
I have a regular HTML page with some images (just regular <img /> HTML tags). I'd like to get their content, base64 encoded preferably, without the need to redownload the image (ie. it's already loaded by the browser, so now I want the content).
I'd love to achieve that with Greasemonkey and Firefox.
Note: This only works if the image is from the same domain as the page, or has the crossOrigin="anonymous" attribute and the server supports CORS. It's also not going to give you the original file, but a re-encoded version. If you need the result to be identical to the original, see Kaiido's answer.
You will need to create a canvas element with the correct dimensions and copy the image data with the drawImage function. Then you can use the toDataURL function to get a data: url that has the base-64 encoded image. Note that the image must be fully loaded, or you'll just get back an empty (black, transparent) image.
It would be something like this. I've never written a Greasemonkey script, so you might need to adjust the code to run in that environment.
function getBase64Image(img) {
// Create an empty canvas element
var canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
canvas.width = img.width;
canvas.height = img.height;
// Copy the image contents to the canvas
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0);
// Get the data-URL formatted image
// Firefox supports PNG and JPEG. You could check img.src to
// guess the original format, but be aware the using "image/jpg"
// will re-encode the image.
var dataURL = canvas.toDataURL("image/png");
return dataURL.replace(/^data:image\/(png|jpg);base64,/, "");
}
Getting a JPEG-formatted image doesn't work on older versions (around 3.5) of Firefox, so if you want to support that, you'll need to check the compatibility. If the encoding is not supported, it will default to "image/png".
This Function takes the URL then returns the image BASE64
function getBase64FromImageUrl(url) {
var img = new Image();
img.setAttribute('crossOrigin', 'anonymous');
img.onload = function () {
var canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
canvas.width =this.width;
canvas.height =this.height;
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
ctx.drawImage(this, 0, 0);
var dataURL = canvas.toDataURL("image/png");
alert(dataURL.replace(/^data:image\/(png|jpg);base64,/, ""));
};
img.src = url;
}
Call it like this :
getBase64FromImageUrl("images/slbltxt.png")
Coming long after, but none of the answers here are entirely correct.
When drawn on a canvas, the passed image is uncompressed + all pre-multiplied.
When exported, its uncompressed or recompressed with a different algorithm, and un-multiplied.
All browsers and devices will have different rounding errors happening in this process
(see Canvas fingerprinting).
So if one wants a base64 version of an image file, they have to request it again (most of the time it will come from cache) but this time as a Blob.
Then you can use a FileReader to read it either as an ArrayBuffer, or as a dataURL.
function toDataURL(url, callback){
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open('get', url);
xhr.responseType = 'blob';
xhr.onload = function(){
var fr = new FileReader();
fr.onload = function(){
callback(this.result);
};
fr.readAsDataURL(xhr.response); // async call
};
xhr.send();
}
toDataURL(myImage.src, function(dataURL){
result.src = dataURL;
// now just to show that passing to a canvas doesn't hold the same results
var canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
canvas.width = myImage.naturalWidth;
canvas.height = myImage.naturalHeight;
canvas.getContext('2d').drawImage(myImage, 0,0);
console.log(canvas.toDataURL() === dataURL); // false - not same data
});
<img id="myImage" src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/4e90e48s5vtmfbd/aaa.png" crossOrigin="anonymous">
<img id="result">
A more modern version of kaiido's answer using fetch would be:
function toObjectUrl(url) {
return fetch(url)
.then((response)=> {
return response.blob();
})
.then(blob=> {
return URL.createObjectURL(blob);
});
}
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Fetch_API/Using_Fetch
Edit: As pointed out in the comments this will return an object url which points to a file in your local system instead of an actual DataURL so depending on your use case this might not be what you need.

If your image(s) are already loaded (or not), this "tool" may come in handy:
Object.defineProperty
(
HTMLImageElement.prototype,'toDataURL',
{enumerable:false,configurable:false,writable:false,value:function(m,q)
{
let c=document.createElement('canvas');
c.width=this.naturalWidth; c.height=this.naturalHeight;
c.getContext('2d').drawImage(this,0,0); return c.toDataURL(m,q);
}}
);
.. but why?
This has the advantage of using the "already loaded" image data, so no extra request is needed. Additionally it lets the end-user (programmer like you) decide the CORS and/or mime-type and quality -OR- you can leave out these arguments/parameters as described in the MDN specification here.
If you have this JS loaded (prior to when it's needed), then converting to dataURL is as simple as:
examples
HTML
<img src="/yo.jpg" onload="console.log(this.toDataURL('image/jpeg'))">
JS
console.log(document.getElementById("someImgID").toDataURL());

If you are concerned about the "preciseness" of the bits then you can alter this tool to suit your needs as provided by #Kaiido's answer.

In HTML5 better use this:
{
//...
canvas.width = img.naturalWidth; //img.width;
canvas.height = img.naturalHeight; //img.height;
//...
}
