PDF to Base64 on Ionic 3 app for Android and iOS platforms


I use Scan bot Cordova plugin to generate pdf using png. But my API requires to send data as base64 encoded. There is only 1 plugin for this on Ionic native. i.e base64. But it still in beta and seems it has a lot of issues on iOS devices. So any clue about how can I convert pdf into base64 on the Ionic app and it should work fine on both platforms. i.e. Android and ioS. Your experience about this subject really helps me to give an advice.


Solution

  • There is a great native plugin for this. That is Native File plugin.It works really well.

     let base64String = await this.file.readAsDataURL(pdfFilePath, pdfFilename);
