html - How to convert Base64 String to javascript file object like as from file input form? - Stack Overflow

I want to convert Base64String extracted from file(ex: "AAAAA....~") to a javascript file object.

The javascript file object what I mean is like this code:

HTML:

<input type="file" id="selectFile" > 

JS:

$('#selectFile').on('change', function(e) {
  var file = e.target.files[0];

  console.log(file)
}

'file' variable is a javascript file object. So I want to convert a base64 string to the javascript file object like that.

I just want to get file object by decoding base64 string (encoded by other app from a file) without html file input form.

Thank you.

Way 1: only works for dataURL, not for other types of url.

function dataURLtoFile(dataurl, filename) {
    var arr = dataurl.split(','),
        mime = arr[0].match(/:(.*?);/)[1],
        bstr = atob(arr[arr.length - 1]), 
        n = bstr.length, 
        u8arr = new Uint8Array(n);
    while(n--){
        u8arr[n] = bstr.charCodeAt(n);
    }
    return new File([u8arr], filename, {type:mime});
}

//Usage example:
var file = dataURLtoFile('data:text/plain;base64,aGVsbG8=','hello.txt');
console.log(file);

Way 2: works for any type of url, (http url, dataURL, blobURL, etc...)

// return a promise that resolves with a File instance
function urltoFile(url, filename, mimeType){
    if (url.startsWith('data:')) {
        var arr = url.split(','),
            mime = arr[0].match(/:(.*?);/)[1],
            bstr = atob(arr[arr.length - 1]), 
            n = bstr.length, 
            u8arr = new Uint8Array(n);
        while(n--){
            u8arr[n] = bstr.charCodeAt(n);
        }
        var file = new File([u8arr], filename, {type:mime || mimeType});
        return Promise.resolve(file);
    }
    return fetch(url)
        .then(res => res.arrayBuffer())
        .then(buf => new File([buf], filename,{type:mimeType}));
}

//Usage example:
urltoFile('data:text/plain;base64,aGVsbG8=', 'hello.txt','text/plain')
.then(function(file){ console.log(file);});

const url = 'data:image/png;base6....';
fetch(url)
  .then(res => res.blob())
  .then(blob => {
    const file = new File([blob], "File name",{ type: "image/png" })
  })

Base64 String -> Blob -> File.

This is the latest async/await pattern solution.

export async function dataUrlToFile(dataUrl: string, fileName: string): Promise<File> {

    const res: Response = await fetch(dataUrl);
    const blob: Blob = await res.blob();
    return new File([blob], fileName, { type: 'image/png' });
}

Here is the Typescript version of accepted answer above by @cuixiping, now using Buffer instead of atob()

I saw deprecation warnings using atob() from TypeScript, although it isn't fully deprecated. Only one overload is. However, I converted mine to use the deprecation warning suggestion of Buffer. It seems more clean since it requires no extra loop to convert each character.

  /***
   * Converts a dataUrl base64 image string into a File byte array
   * dataUrl example:
   * data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAIsAAACLCAYAAABRGWr/AAAAAXNSR0IA...etc
   */
  dataUrlToFile(dataUrl: string, filename: string): File | undefined {
    const arr = dataUrl.split(',');
    if (arr.length < 2) { return undefined; }
    const mimeArr = arr[0].match(/:(.*?);/);
    if (!mimeArr || mimeArr.length < 2) { return undefined; }
    const mime = mimeArr[1];
    const buff = Buffer.from(arr[1], 'base64');
    return new File([buff], filename, {type:mime});
  }

at the top of the file you'll need an import to make the typings happy.

import { Buffer } from 'buffer';

No special npm packages are needed.

const file = new File([
  new Blob(["decoded_base64_String"])
], "output_file_name");

You could use a lib like this to decode and encode base64 to arrayBuffer.

const base64Str = "AAABAAEAICAAAAAAAACoCAAAFg....AND_SO_ON";
const file = new File(
   [Uint8Array.from(atob(base64Str), (m) => m.codePointAt(0))],
   'myfilename.jpeg',
   { type: "image/jpeg" }
);

I had a very similar requirement (importing a base64 encoded image from an external xml import file. After using xml2json-light library to convert to a json object, I was able to leverage insight from cuixiping's answer above to convert the incoming b64 encoded image to a file object.

const imgName = incomingImage['FileName'];
const imgExt = imgName.split('.').pop();
let mimeType = 'image/png';
if (imgExt.toLowerCase() !== 'png') {
    mimeType = 'image/jpeg';
}
const imgB64 = incomingImage['_@ttribute'];
const bstr = atob(imgB64);
let n = bstr.length;
const u8arr = new Uint8Array(n);
while (n--) {
  u8arr[n] = bstr.charCodeAt(n);
}
const file = new File([u8arr], imgName, {type: mimeType});

My incoming json object had two properties after conversion by xml2json-light: FileName and _@ttribute (which was b64 image data contained in the body of the incoming element.) I needed to generate the mime-type based on the incoming FileName extension. Once I had all the pieces extracted/referenced from the json object, it was a simple task (using cuixiping's supplied code reference) to generate the new File object which was completely compatible with my existing classes that expected a file object generated from the browser element.

Hope this helps connects the dots for others.

Heads up,

JAVASCRIPT

<script>
   function readMtlAtClient(){

       mtlFileContent = '';

       var mtlFile = document.getElementById('mtlFileInput').files[0];
       var readerMTL = new FileReader();

       // Closure to capture the file information.
       readerMTL.onload = (function(reader) {
           return function() {
               mtlFileContent = reader.result;
               mtlFileContent = mtlFileContent.replace('data:;base64,', '');
               mtlFileContent = window.atob(mtlFileContent);

           };
       })(readerMTL);

       readerMTL.readAsDataURL(mtlFile);
   }
</script>

HTML

    <input class="FullWidth" type="file" name="mtlFileInput" value="" id="mtlFileInput" 
onchange="readMtlAtClient()" accept=".mtl"/>

Then mtlFileContent has your text as a decoded string !

Complete Version for Typescript

async uploadImage(b64img: string) {
  var file = await this.urltoFile(b64img,'name.png',this.base64MimeType(b64img));
}

//return a promise that resolves with a File instance
urltoFile(url, filename, mimeType){
    return (fetch(url)
        .then(function(res){return res.arrayBuffer();})
        .then(function(buf){return new File([buf], filename,{type:mimeType});})
    );
}

//return mime Type of bs64
base64MimeType(encoded) {
    var result = null;
  
    if (typeof encoded !== 'string') {
      return result;
    }
  
    var mime = encoded.match(/data:([a-zA-Z0-9]+\/[a-zA-Z0-9-.+]+).*,.*/);
  
    if (mime && mime.length) {
      result = mime[1];
    }
  
    return result;
}

Thats Work for me Converting base64 Image to File

this worked for me credit

base64ToFile = (url: string) => {
let arr = url.split(',');
// console.log(arr)
let mime = arr[0].match(/:(.*?);/)![1];
let data = arr[1];

let dataStr = atob(data);
let n = dataStr.length;
let dataArr = new Uint8Array(n);

while (n--) {
  dataArr[n] = dataStr.charCodeAt(n);
}

let file = new File([dataArr], 'File.png', { type: mime });

return file;
};
