Save image in local storage phonegap
Great you found the solution, I did it the following way.Hope it helps someone else.
Simply call capturePhoto function on button click event.
// A button will call this function//function capturePhoto() { sessionStorage.removeItem('imagepath'); // Take picture using device camera and retrieve image as base64-encoded string navigator.camera.getPicture(onPhotoDataSuccess, onFail, { quality: 50, destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI });}function onPhotoDataSuccess(imageURI) { // Uncomment to view the base64 encoded image data // console.log(imageData); // Get image handle // var imgProfile = document.getElementById('imgProfile'); // Show the captured photo // The inline CSS rules are used to resize the image // imgProfile.src = imageURI; if(sessionStorage.isprofileimage==1){ getLocation(); } movePic(imageURI);}// Called if something bad happens.// function onFail(message) { alert('Failed because: ' + message);}function movePic(file){ window.resolveLocalFileSystemURI(file, resolveOnSuccess, resOnError); } //Callback function when the file system uri has been resolvedfunction resolveOnSuccess(entry){ var d = new Date(); var n = d.getTime(); //new file name var newFileName = n + ".jpg"; var myFolderApp = "MyAppFolder"; window.requestFileSystem(LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, 0, function(fileSys) { //The folder is created if doesn't exist fileSys.root.getDirectory( myFolderApp, {create:true, exclusive: false}, function(directory) { entry.moveTo(directory, newFileName, successMove, resOnError); }, resOnError); }, resOnError);}//Callback function when the file has been moved successfully - inserting the complete pathfunction successMove(entry) { //Store imagepath in session for future use // like to store it in database sessionStorage.setItem('imagepath', entry.fullPath);}function resOnError(error) { alert(error.code);}What this code does is
Captures image and stores it in MyAppFolder on device's SD Card.And stores imagepath in session so as to insert it in local database.
