datauri


Node.js Module and CLI to generate Data URI scheme.

The data URI scheme is a uniform resource identifier (URI) scheme that provides a way to include data in-line in web pages as if they were external resources.

from: Wikipedia

MODULE Build Status

For Node 8+ compatibility:

npm install --save datauri

Getting started

By default, datauri module returns a promise, which is resolved with data:uri string or rejected with file read error:

const datauri = require('datauri');
 
const content = await datauri('test/myfile.png');
 
console.log(content)
//=> "data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAA..."

Callback style and meta data

const datauri = require('datauri');
 
datauri('test/myfile.png', (err, content, meta) => {
  if (err) {
      throw err;
  }
 
  console.log(content); //=> "data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAA..."
 
  console.log(meta.mimetype); //=> "image/png"
  console.log(meta.base64); //=> "iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAA..."
  console.log(meta.getCSS()); //=> "\n.case {\n    background-image: url('data:image/png;base64,iVBORw..."
  console.log(meta.getCSS({
    class: "myClass",
    width: true,
    height: true
  })); //=> adds image width and height and custom class name
});

Synchronous calls

const Datauri = require('datauri/sync');
const meta = Datauri('test/myfile.png');
 
console.log(meta.content); //=> "data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAA..."
console.log(meta.mimetype); //=> "image/png"
console.log(meta.base64); //=> "iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAA..."
console.log(meta.getCSS()); //=> "\n.case {\n    background-image: url('data:image/png;base64,iVBORw..."
console.log(meta.getCSS("myClass")); //=> "\n.myClass {\n    background-image: url('data:image/png;base64,iVBORw..."

From a Buffer

If you already have a file Buffer, that's the way to go:

const DatauriParser = require('datauri/parser');
const parser = new DatauriParser();
 
const buffer = fs.readFileSync('./hello');
 
parser.format('.png', buffer); //=> "data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAA..."

From a string

const DatauriParser = require('datauri/parser');
const parser = new DatauriParser();
 
parser.format('.png', 'xkcd'); //=> "data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAA..."
