Displaying Images on Visualforce pages using Base64 Blob












2















My question is about displaying base64 blob as image in visualforce page. Here's my controller code:



Object img;

public Object getImg () {

    List<ContentVersion> bodyList = [SELECT VersionData FROM ContentVersion WHERE ContentDocumentId='the real id'];



    img = bodyList[0].get('VersionData');

    return img;

}


Here's the visualforce:



<img src="data:image/png;base64,{! img }"/>


This is getting rendered as




<img src="data:image/png;base64,core.filemanager.FileBlobValue@1e76577f">




How can I get the actual base64 of image so the image is displayed properly?






apex visualforce images base64

Interestingly enough, I've noted that all these instances are popping up because of the sequence of loading. channels is after channelproducts both alphabetically and in the file and thus I can understand why postgres complains about having to create a child without a parent. caveat: the foreign key is being generated automatically by rails 4.2: I could remove the problem at the source but that still does not really solve the problem... version: PostgreSQL
