Usually, when you are implementing an image upload, that time you want to resize the image, or before uploading you want to change the image size. So let’s explain how to resize the image and convert it into base64 content.
In this tutorial, You will learn how to resize an image using javascript and after resizing the image how-to shows the preview of resizing an image. Here you will learn the resizing of image and show preview with resizing the image.
How to Resize Image Size using Canvas and Convert into Base64 Encoded String (Data URLs) and Blob in Javascript
Resizing an Image with Javascript is fairly simple. Let’s take an example of that:
If you use this below example that shows to preview the of resizing an image.
Create Html
<input id="imageFile" name="imageFile" type="file" class="imageFile" accept="image/*" />
<input type="button" value="Resize Image" onclick="ResizeImage()"/>
<br/>
<img src="" id="preview" >
<img src="" id="output">
Implement JavaScript Code For Resize Image
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#imageFile').change(function(evt) {
var files = evt.target.files;
var file = files[0];
if (file) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function(e) {
document.getElementById('preview').src = e.target.result;
};
reader.readAsDataURL(file);
}
});
});
function ResizeImage() {
if (window.File && window.FileReader && window.FileList && window.Blob) {
var filesToUploads = document.getElementById('imageFile').files;
var file = filesToUploads[0];
if (file) {
var reader = new FileReader();
// Set the image once loaded into file reader
reader.onload = function(e) {
var img = document.createElement("img");
img.src = e.target.result;
var canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0);
var MAX_WIDTH = 400;
var MAX_HEIGHT = 400;
var width = img.width;
var height = img.height;
if (width > height) {
if (width > MAX_WIDTH) {
height *= MAX_WIDTH / width;
width = MAX_WIDTH;
}
} else {
if (height > MAX_HEIGHT) {
width *= MAX_HEIGHT / height;
height = MAX_HEIGHT;
}
}
canvas.width = width;
canvas.height = height;
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0, width, height);
dataurl = canvas.toDataURL(file.type);
document.getElementById('output').src = dataurl;
}
reader.readAsDataURL(file);
}
} else {
alert('The File APIs are not fully supported in this browser.');
}
}
