I have a problem with saving pictures in the database. I want to do a post Method, where i can safe a file in a directory and save the picture link in the database.
Here is my Code:
`const toBase64 = file => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
const reader = new FileReader()
reader.readAsDataURL(file)
reader.onload = () => resolve(reader.result)
reader.onerror = error => reject(error)
})`
` const [base64Image, setBase64Image] = useState("")
const [imagePath, setImagePath] = useState("")
const fileInput = useRef(null)`
`const onFileInputChange = async (e) => {
const file = fileInput.current.files[0]
if (!file) return
const base64 = await toBase64(file)
setBase64Image(base64)}`
` const handleSubmitImage = async (e) => {
e.preventDefault()
if (!base64Image) return
const response = await fetch("/public", {
method: "POST",
headers: {
"content-type": "application/json"
},
body: JSON.stringify(base64Image)
})
const data = await response.json()
setImagePath(data.filePath)
}`
Post:
`const handleSubmit = async (e) => {
e.preventDefault()
setIsLoading(true)
setErrors(defaultModel)
const result = validateModel(post)
if (!result.isValid) {
setErrors(result.errors)
setIsLoading(false)
return
}
if (post.id) {
await updatePost(post, session.accessToken)
alert("Post updated!")
router.push(`/posts/${post.id}`)
} else {
const newPost = await createPost(post, session.accessToken)
alert("Post created!")
router.push(`/posts/${newPost.id}`)
}
setIsLoading(false)
}
`
` <fieldset onSubmit={handleSubmitImage} className={styles.form}>
<p>Image:</p>
<input value={post.image}
type="file"
accept=".png,.jpg"
ref={fileInput}
onChange={onFileInputChange}
/>
{/* eslint-disable-next-line @next/next/no-img-element */}
{base64Image && <img src={base64Image} style={{width: "1000px", height: "1000px"}} alt={""}/>}
{imagePath && <p>
<Link href={`http://localhost:3000${imagePath}`}
passHref><a>http://localhost:3000{imagePath}</a></Link>
</p>
}
</fieldset>`
Right now i can connect to the Explorer and pick an Image. I can also display the image. If i press on create, it doesnt work properly with saving the image in the database.
