[SOLVED] problems with storage file

So do you want to save storage space, or just resize images?

it would be both

Because if resizing, I guess you could use: https://appwrite.io/docs/products/storage/images

oh well lets see

oh but that just shows a preview of the file

like it doesnt actually gets resized before getting into the storage

It does not, but does it matter what the exact size is?

I'm generally curious 😄

well tbh yeah i dont want users to load 1k px images on each user's profile photo

I think that's where image transformations comes in

It's called "preview", but it's actually the full image, just with different options

AFAIK

yeah that could be good but wouldnt it actually be better to just compress the image beforehand so then i dont have to programatically do a transform later?

Sure. But as Steven said, I don't think that's supported. Otherwise you'd need a service in between that would do this for you

What you basically need in the end, is the actual file, not just a blob

could maybe use a conversor

imma see if i can do anything about it

Sure, good luck!

tytyty

ok simple fix

just had to use vanilla JS tool to turn information into a file

let fileObj = new File([result], file.name, { type: 'image/png' });

pushed the result blob into it as an array then just pushed the image to appwrite with the fileObj var

ill mark this as fixed now
