I want to create an image uplaoder based on base64 and I want to get results as an array but I got empty! array, I know maybe it's a asynchronous issue, but I don't know how to use async, await in map any idea?
const [array, setArray] = useState([]);
const fileBase64 = (img) => {
let result = [...img];
setUrlImage(img);
result && result.map(function (img){
let fileReader = new FileReader();
fileReader.readAsDataURL(img);
fileReader.onloadend = async () => {
let res = await fileReader.result;
setArray([...array, res])
};
})
console.log(array)
}
const handleImage = (e) => {
let image = [...e.target.files];
fileBase64(image);
}
<input type="file" multiple={true} onChange={handleImage}/>
Due to this asynchronous nature, state is being set i.e. push before data urls are set in array.
And that's the reason your your array return empty.
To fix it, you can use create Promise which gets resolved after load event of each file. And use Promise.all which would be resolved after each Promise has resolved and then use setArray:
fileBase64 = (img) => {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
let fileReader = new FileReader();
fileReader.onerror = reject
fileReader.onload = function () {
resolve(fileReader.result)
}
fileReader.readAsDataURL(img)
})
}
handleImage = (e) => {
let image = e.target.files;
Promise.all(Array.from(image).map(this.readAsDataURL))
.then((urls) => {
setArray(urls)
})
.catch((error) => {
console.error(error)
})
}
