How to store image as encoded string in MongoDB?
I'm trying to convert image to string and save it inside MongoDB. I also want to decode it later.
I'm using only Express, MongoDB and ReactJS and I don't want to upload the image file on my server, they'll be user photo.
javascript reactjs mongodb express

Maybe you want to encode image to base64, please refer stackoverflow.com/a/20285053/8828489. I think it is not best way to store image by base64 in mongodb. You can try other service to store image or store it on your server.

Issues
I think it is not a good way to store an image by base64 in MongoDB. I think it will add overhead.
You can try another service to store image or upload it on your server. In MongoDB, we only store image URI/URL, that will reduce overhead.
There are some services allow you uploads image free with APIs:
Imgur: You can refer Build an Image Uploader with Imgur API and JavaScript
Firebase: You can refer Upload Files to Firebase Storage with JavaScript
- Cloudinary
- Upload.im
- Flickr
