Front-end of POSTing to local file storage

REST API
33

We take a photo using PhoneGap camera plugin and save photo in localstorage. The key is to base64 it at this point.

   navigator.camera.getPicture(function (imageData) {
    assembleDate();

    document.getElementById('dormPhoto').src = "data:image/jpeg;base64," + imageData;
    localStorage.dormPhoto = "data:image/jpeg;base64," + imageData;
    $('#dormPhoto').css({
        height: "auto",
        width: "auto"
    });
}, function (message) {
    //        alert(message);
}, {
    quality: 75,
    destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
    sourceType: Camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA,
    targetWidth: 320,
    targetHeight: 240,
    saveToPhotoAlbum: true
});

You can then use the localstorage content for the body: of the CreateFile api

            window.df.apis.files.createFile({
                "container": "dormfinder",
                "file_path": filename,
                "body": localStorage.dormPhoto
            },
            function (response) {
                if (App.testing_on_desktop) {
                    alert("Your Dorm Successfully Submitted.");
                } else {
                    navigator.notification.alert('Your Dorm Successfully Submitted.', function () {}, 'Success', 'Continue');
                }
                $('#addMapPage').removeClass('ui-disabled');
                goTo("#homePage");
                hideLoader();
            },
            function (response) {
                $('#addMapPage').removeClass('ui-disabled');
                alert(window.app.getErrorString(response));
                hideLoader();
            }
        );

I hope this is helpful.
