keditor convert blob generated image URL to base64

I'm using keditor for my document. My problem here is that the images are generated as blob and I have no way of knowing where they are being stored thus when converting the file to another format the images are lost.

Sample image tag with blob:

<img src="blob:http://localhost/7b0e82ab-445b-4866-b8b5-09b4881a0544" width="100%" height="" style="display: inline-block;">

I was hoping I can find a way to convert this to blob either using PHP or JS.

I also found this post but no solution was provided:

JS convert blob url to Base64 file

Solution

  • Somewhere in your code you have a reference to the blob that you had to get your blob url, take it an pass it to the FileReader like so:

    // Just an example file
var blob = new Blob(['abc'], {type: 'text/plain'})

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