Ionic Upload Image to Server - ionic-framework

Question

I need to upload captured image and album image to the server in ionic app.
Is anyone know how to do that?
I am just fresh in developing ionic app

Answer 1

It is not really clear what you mean by uploading an image to the server with an ionic app.
A suggestion might be to convert the image to a Base64 string and send it to the server.

Answer 2

i am using cordova imagepicker(pick image from camera) and upload to s3 server.
function getImageFromGallery(cb) {
// console.log('getImageFromGallery');
var options = {
maximumImagesCount: 1,
width: 1280, //width of image
height: 1280, // height of image
quality: 80
};
$cordovaImagePicker.getPictures(options)
.then(function(results) {
console.log(results);
}, function(error) {
alert(error);
});
}
function uploadImage(imageDataURI) {
// console.log('uploadImage');
var fileURL = imageDataURI;
var options = new FileUploadOptions();
options.fileKey = "image";
options.fileName = fileURL.substr(fileURL.lastIndexOf('/') + 1);
options.chunkedMode = true;
options.method = 'POST';
var params = {
'image_type': 'food'
};
options.params = params;
var ft = new FileTransfer();
ft.upload(fileURL, encodeURI("http://xxx.in/api/upload_image"),
viewUploadedPictures,
function(error) {
console.log(error);
}, options);
console.log('success');
}
var viewUploadedPictures = function(response) {
var res = response.response;
var jres = JSON.parse(res);
var imgUrl = jres.data.public_photo_url;
console.log('new image url link', imgUrl);
}
Note:- i am using REST api for image uploading "http://xxx.in/api/upload_image"
