How to convert such file into actual image for upload

Hi guys Im trying to upload an image from camera capture on Cordova and sending to PHP file. The images sent to the PHP file comes like this:

data:image/jpeg;base64,file:///data/user/0/mobi.monaca.debugger/cache/1650991444040.jpg

How do I save this as actual image file on my server?

Thanks

Solution

I solved it myself, it was true as Sammitch pointed out, I wasn't sending the local file.

I now solved it this way:

function onSuccess(imageData) { 
      var image = document.getElementById('myImage'); 
      image.src = "data:image/jpeg;base64," + imageData; 
      var file = "data:image/jpeg;base64," + imageData;
      $(".image-tag").val(file);
      $('#plswait').html('Please wait...');
      var wait=setTimeout("document.sendcapture.submit();",5000);
   }

I have a HTML form that collects and sends the data to my PHP file, like so

 <form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" id="sendcapture" name="sendcapture" action="https://.....com/saveUploadImg" style="text-align: center;">  
     <input type="text" name="image" class="image-tag">     
</form>
         

 <div style="text-align: center;">
<button class="btn btn-success" id = "cameraTakePicture">CAPTURE WITH CAMERA</button>
<img style="display: none;" id = "myImage"></img>
<br>
<div id="plswait" style="color: red; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"></div>
