Using compressorjs with React Native expo

I'm trying to using the amazing compressorjs library in my React native expo project.

Currently, I have this:

import Compressor from 'compressorjs';

export const uploadPicture = async (uri, path) => {
    const blob = await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
        xhr.onload = function () {
            resolve(xhr.response);
        };
        xhr.onerror = function (e) {
            console.log(e);
            reject(new TypeError("Network request failed"));
        };
        xhr.responseType = "blob";
        xhr.open("GET", uri, true);
        xhr.send(null);
    });

    new Compressor(blob, { //<--- Problem
        quality: 0.6,
        maxWidth: 512,
        maxHeight: 512,
        success(result) {
            console.log(result)
        },
        error(err) {
            console.log(err.message)
        }
    })

    blob.close();

    //firebase stuff to upload after...
}

I'm assuming this doesn't work because compressorjs only allows File and Blob types and I'm inserting a Promise instead. But I have no clue what to do instead.

If anyone can point me into the right direction, that would be amazing! Thanks.

Consider using the fetch API response.blob method to get the image blob from the URI as opposed to using Ajax XMLHttpRequest

Like this -

Getting the blob via the URI

let blob = await fetch(uri).then(r => r.blob());

You can also take it a step further by getting the actual file from the blob, like this:

Getting the image file from the blob

let file = await fetch(url)
  .then((r) => r.blob())
  .then((blobFile) => new File([blobFile], "fileName", { type: "image/png" }));

Your finished code should look something like:

import Compressor from "compressorjs";

export const uploadPicture = async (uri, path) => {
  let blob = await fetch(uri).then(r => r.blob());

  new Compressor(blob, {
    ...
  });
};

OR this

import Compressor from "compressorjs";

export const uploadPicture = async (uri, path) => {
  let file = await fetch(url)
    .then((r) => r.blob())
    .then((blobFile) =>
       new File(
         [blobFile],
         "fileName",
         { type: "image/png" })
     );

  new Compressor(file, {
    ...
  });
};

Disclaimer

Please note that there's no guarantee that this suggestion will definitely solve your problem but it's DEFINITELY worth a shot.

Cheers.
