Example

app.component.ts

import { Component } from "@angular/core";
import { RouterOutlet } from "@angular/router";
import { EasyImageDrawing } from "ngx-easy-image-drawing";

@Component({
  selector: "app-root",
  standalone: true,
  imports: [RouterOutlet, EasyImageDrawing],
  templateUrl: "./app.component.html",
  styleUrl: "./app.component.css",
})
export class AppComponent {
  title = "my-project";

  canvasHeight = 600;
  canvasWidth = 600;
  uploadImageFilePreview: any = null;
  savedImage: any = null;

  onFileChange(event: any) {
    const file = event.target.files[0];
    const reader = new FileReader();
    // readAsDataURL reads the uploaded file content and returns a string representing the image data encoded as a DataURL.
    reader.readAsDataURL(file);
    // The DataURL typically starts with a prefix like data:image/jpeg;base64,. This prefix specifies the image format (image/jpeg) and encoding (base64).
    reader.onload = (e: any) => {
      // By assigning the complete DataURL string to uploadImageFilePreview, you provide the necessary information to the easy-image-drawing component to display the uploaded image.
      this.uploadImageFilePreview = e.target.result;
    };
  }

  handleSavedImage(event: any) {
    this.savedImage = event;
    // reset the image preview
    this.uploadImageFilePreview = null;
  }
}
