Convert blob to base64

Solution 1:

var reader = new FileReader();
reader.readAsDataURL(blob); 
reader.onloadend = function() {
  var base64data = reader.result;                
  console.log(base64data);
}

Form the docs readAsDataURL encodes to base64

As an awaitable function:

function blobToBase64(blob) {
  return new Promise((resolve, _) => {
    const reader = new FileReader();
    reader.onloadend = () => resolve(reader.result);
    reader.readAsDataURL(blob);
  });
}

Note: The blob's result cannot be directly decoded as Base64 without first removing the Data-URL declaration preceding the Base64-encoded data. To retrieve only the Base64 encoded string, first remove data:/;base64, from the result.

Solution 2:

this worked for me:

var blobToBase64 = function(blob, callback) {
    var reader = new FileReader();
    reader.onload = function() {
        var dataUrl = reader.result;
        var base64 = dataUrl.split(',')[1];
        callback(base64);
    };
    reader.readAsDataURL(blob);
};
