Convert image URI into javascript file object

Question

So I have this webcam feature that returns base64 URI to me and I can't save it to AWS since it needs an image object. Is there any way to convert URI into javascript object?(file object the same as returned by file browser input tag to be exact)

I want to convert this

data:image/jpeg;base64,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

Answer 1

fastest way

function dataURLtoFile(dataurl, filename) {
var arr = dataurl.split(','), mime = arr[0].match(/:(.*?);/)[1],
    bstr = atob(arr[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:image/png;base64,....', 'filename.png');
console.log(file);
