如何使用JavaScript显示Blob

Question

I got a script which takes several images from my MySQL database, which are stored as blobs. This script is accessed from a JavaScript / Ajax request.

So for now i display the blob in a div. But how can i convert the blob to an image in JavaScript?

Answer 1

First, you could expose the image data as resources on the server-side then instantiate an image node in your client-side with the src set the appropriate URL.

<img src="mydomain/images/my-resource.png" />

The resource mydomain/images/my-resource.png does not need to be a static resource on the server; the URL just needs to return the image data in an HTTP response.

Second, if you have the blob in base64 on the client-side already, use a data-url . Format ( from Wikipedia ):

data:[<MIME-type>][;charset=<encoding>][;base64],<data>

Example ( from Wikpedia ):

<img src="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAUA
AAAFCAYAAACNbyblAAAAHElEQVQI12P4//8/w38GIAXDIBKE0DHxgljNBAAO

If you actually have raw binary data on the client-side then the btoa function may be of use when constructing said data-url .

Finally, you could also use the HTML5 File API, performing an XMLHttpRequest , configured with a responseType of either 'blob' , or 'arraybuffer' . You can then instantiate an in-memory URL for the object, and assign this to the src of an Image DOM node.
