How to save an HTML5 Canvas as an image on a server?

Question

I\'m working on a generative art project where I would like to allow users to save the resulting images from an algorithm. The general idea is:

• Create an image

Answer 1

I just made an imageCrop and Upload feature with

https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-image-crop

to get the ImagePreview ( the cropped image rendering in a canvas)

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLCanvasElement/toBlob

canvas.toBlob(function(blob){...}, 'image/jpeg', 0.95);

I prefer sending data in blob with content type image/jpeg rather than toDataURL ( a huge base64 string`

My implementation for uploading to Azure Blob using SAS URL

axios.post(azure_sas_url, image_in_blob, {
   headers: {
      'x-ms-blob-type': 'BlockBlob',
      'Content-Type': 'image/jpeg'
   }
})
