ImageIO.write() will compress the image by default - the compressed image has a smaller size but looks strange sometimes. I use BufferedOutputStream to save the byte array data - this will keep the original image size.
Here is the code:
import javax.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter;
import java.io.*;
public class ImageTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String base64String = "data:image/jpeg;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAHkAAAB5C...";
String[] strings = base64String.split(",");
String extension;
switch (strings[0]) {//check image's extension
case "data:image/jpeg;base64":
extension = "jpeg";
break;
case "data:image/png;base64":
extension = "png";
break;
default://should write cases for more images types
extension = "jpg";
break;
}
//convert base64 string to binary data
byte[] data = DatatypeConverter.parseBase64Binary(strings[1]);
String path = "C:\\Users\\Ene\\Desktop\\test_image." + extension;
File file = new File(path);
try (OutputStream outputStream = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(file))) {
outputStream.write(data);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
