- I have a requirement in which I need to convert an input text to a png/jpeg file and then convert to base64 string and send as an input to an API.
- I cannot use node.js fs module since I cannot physically create files.
- So I was trying to user node.js Buffer module to achieve the same.
- But the issue I'm facing is, I cannot add extension to it(I don't know if there is any such option). Is there any other way of doing so?
Below is the code I tried...
function textToFileBase64(str){
var buf = Buffer.from(str, 'utf-8');
return buf.toString('base64');
}
The only problem with the above code is that it creates a file without extension and even if I need the file as abc.png, it says the file is damaged when I open it.
