Uploading image stored under "data:image/png;base64" in browser to IPFS

#1

I converted data from HTML page by converting it to a canvas using “html2canvas” and also converted the canvas to url using “toDataURL” function which left me with a data url of the image.

And now i am trying to upload this “data:image/png;base64” which i got from “toDataURL” to IPFS. Is it possible?

I am actually trying to skip downloading the canvas as image and then reuploading to IPFS by directly uploading the canvas data to IPFS.

#2

it should be possible to upload that data to IPFS or in other location, but I don’t know exactly how you are going to display it, as I think that you will have to download that data in order to display it.

#3

The data from “data:image/png;base64” can be viewed using img tag.
So I think I can skip uploading the image to IPFS and instead i can give the image url as “data:image/png;base64,…” while minting, but the url length will be crazy huge.

you want to save that image data in a smart contract at mint time?

#5

Yes
:sweat_smile: Hoping it is possible

#6

hoping you are using a chain with small gas fees

Hi bro, if you don’t mind me asking, can you please write me on Instagram? my name is @filos__ I’m working on that rn and I think I’m very near to the solution. Would be great if we can talk and figure it out together

You can share what you’re doing exactly and you can get a discussion going here as well.
