Convert A Byte[] Array to Image in Xamarin Forms
(XAML):
<Image Grid.Row="1" x:Name="IncidentImageData" Grid.ColumnSpan="4" BackgroundColor="DarkGray" Aspect="AspectFill" WidthRequest="50" HeightRequest="175"/>
viewModel.SImageBase64 is a byte[]
Code Behind(C#):
var stream1 = new MemoryStream(viewModel.SImageBase64);IncidentImageData.Source = ImageSource.FromStream(() => stream1);
simply i have done like this and image has shown.
A Potential Fix
I know this thread is 2 years old now but I thought i'd post a working solution here for anyone who's also struggling with this. Just spent half a day researching and trying to solve an identical problem, the way the code was written on this post helped me greatly as it is almost 100% correct. You just need to provide the MemoryStream as a return from a lambda function within the FromStream()
method.
Change this:
PdfImage.Source = ImageSource.FromStream(() => new MemoryStream(imageAsBytes));
To:
PdfImage.Source = ImageSource.FromStream(() =>{ return new MemoryStream(imageAsBytes);});
And the snippet should be working as of Xamarin Forms 5.0.0.2012
Full Code:
byte[] imageAsBytes = Constant.jsonPDF;var stream1 = new MemoryStream(imageAsBytes);PdfImage.Source = ImageSource.FromStream(() =>{ return new MemoryStream(imageAsBytes);});imagePanel.Children.Add(PdfImage);
Use this Code :
imgUserImage.Source = ImageSource.FromStream(() => new MemoryStream(userList.Single().ProfilePhoto));
Here profile photo type is byte[]
public byte[] ProfilePhoto { get; set; }
