如何使用PHP从base64编码的数据/字符串创建和保存图像到网站文件夹

Question

I have the following code on my php file which is working fine, Its decoding a base64 string and showing that as a image on the webpage, but i want it to save it on a folder too.

<?php
$base = $_POST['encoded'];
$base = base64_decode($base);

$im = imagecreatefromstring($base);
if ($im !== false) {
    header('Content-Type: image/png');
    imagepng($im);
    imagedestroy($im);
}
else {
    echo 'An error occurred.';
}
?>

i have already tried the solution described on these links but none of these are worked for me

Answer 1

The file permissions was not set to writing mode. set it to 777 and tested with the following code.

<?php
$base = $_POST['encoded'];
$base = base64_decode($base);

$im = imagecreatefromstring($base);
if ($im !== false) {
    header('Content-Type: image/png');

    imagepng($im,'image.png'); // saving image to the same directory

    imagedestroy($im);

}
else {
    echo 'An error occurred.';
}
?>
