Use BASE64 encoded image data? #18

Closed DivineOmega closed 6 years ago

DivineOmega commented 6 years ago

Is it possible to pass in BASE64 encoded image data into the scan method rather than a file path to the image?

Hi @DivineOmega,

It is currently not possible to pass a Base64 encoded string to the scan method. This is however an enhancement we would like to add in the future. For now you could check out issue#15 (https://github.com/iMicknl/cordova-plugin-openalpr/issues/15) which has an explanation on how to use a Base64 encoded string instead of an image path with this plugin (This currently only works for Android which is why we have not released it yet).

If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Kind regards, Melvin

We just released the 2.0.0 version of the plugin, which supports Base64 encode image data on iOS and Android.
