I wanted to resize images captured by the CameraPreview plugin to 600x600. I have tried the sample code from the Image Resizer and enabled base64: true
in accordance to the plugin’s Official GitHub README because I wanted it to return a base64 string of the resized image instead of it creating a file and returning a file path. However, it seems that I cannot make the plugin work as I wanted it to be and still creates a file and returns a file path instead of a base64 string.
Image Resize function code:
Here's my code that accepts base64 string without "data:image/jpeg;base64,
" because I spitted it beforehand.
private imageCompressor(base64ImageString: string) {
// this function handles the operation to resize the image from it's original properties
// this function returns base64 string of the resized image
console.log('Image base64 ' + base64ImageString);
let options = {
uri: base64ImageString,
quality: 100,
width: 600,
height: 600,
base64: true
} as ImageResizerOptions;
this.imageResizer
.resize(options)
.then((info) => console.log(info))
.catch(e => console.log(e));
}
I wanted it to return the base64 string of the resized image alone instead of it creating a file and returning the file path. Please help me to find what I missed or recommend the better alternative way of doing this. Thank you!
