I'm using this, in react, to base64 encode an image file:
fileToBase64 = (filename, filepath) => {
return new Promise(resolve => {
var file = new File([filename], filepath);
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function(event) {
resolve(event.target.result);
};
reader.readAsDataURL(file);
});
};
Which gets called by this:
handleChangeFile = event => {
const { name, files } = event.target;
if (files.length) {
const file = files[0];
let fields = this.state.fields;
this.fileToBase64(file).then(result => {
fields[name].value = result;
});
fields[name].isFilled = true;
this.setState({
fields: fields
});
}
};
And the whole fields variable gets posted to a django server, no issues so far.
On the python django end:
str_encoded = request.data["file"]
str_decoded = base64.b64decode(str_encoded)
The second line returns an error that binascii.Error: Invalid base64-encoded string: length cannot be 1 more than a multiple of 4
. I've googled and read that this is probably a padding issue, but I don't know how to fix it.
You will have to strip the base64
string from the prefix added by javascript
. The prefix is sth like data:{type};base64,{actual-base64-string-follows}
In php, where I had same issue, I tested if string starts with "data:"
prefix and I strip it from start of string up to the position of the ;
(semicolon) plus 8 characters (to catch the final ";base64,").
Then you can use python to decode the base64
string remaining as it is now a valid base64
string.
