Issue
I’m trying to show an uploaded image immedetialy after using input file upload in angular.
I was trying to get the url from the typescript file to show it like that in html file:
<img src={{url}}>
I’m having the file like that:
html:
<input type="file" (change)="onFileChanged($event)" >
ts:
onFileChanged(event) {
this.selectedFile = event.target.files[0]
console.log(this.selectedFile)
}
What do I do to get the image and show it immedetialey?
Solution
onFileChanged(event) {
const files = event.target.files;
if (files.length === 0)
return;
const mimeType = files[0].type;
if (mimeType.match(/image\/*/) == null) {
this.message = "Only images are supported.";
return;
}
const reader = new FileReader();
this.imagePath = files;
reader.readAsDataURL(files[0]);
reader.onload = (_event) => {
this.url = reader.result;
}
}
