Save picture to ViewModel

How do I save a picture of a control to a view model (to later save it to a database or FTP server, for example) rather than on a user's computer?

BTW
When will it be available in the EJ2 version?

Hi Patrick, 

Good day to you!! 

For your information, the expected functionality is already available with the last provided sample in our previous update. Anyhow, we have now modified the sample to save the uploaded signature in property model object in the code behind as per your expectations. Please, refer the below code snippet and sample from below to achieve your requirement. 

 
[index.cshtml] 
@{ 
    ViewData["Title"] = "Signature"; 
} 
 
<h3>Sign here</h3> 
 
<div class="frame"> 
    <ej-signature id="mysign" height="400px" width="500" stroke-width="3" is-responsive="true" /> 
    <input id="btnUpload" type="button" value="UploaddatatoDB" onclick="Uploaddata()" /> 
</div> 
<script> 
 
 
    function Uploaddata() { 
 
        var target1 = $("#mysign").ejSignature("instance")._canvas[0].toDataURL() 
        var div = $("#mysign"); 
        var canvas = div["children"]()[0]; 
        image = canvas.toDataURL("image/png"); 
        newimage = image.replace('data:image/png;base64,', ''); 
 
        $.ajax({ 
            type: 'POST', 
            url: '@Url.Action("Upload", "Home")', 
            data: { 
                target: newimage 
                }, 
 
                success: function (data) { 
                    alert("success" ); 
                } 
            }); 
    } 
 
</script> 


[SignatureContext.cs] 
public class SignatureTask 
    { 
 
        public string DataValue { get; set; } 
 
        public string SaveValueObject { get; set; } 
 
    } 

[HomeController.cs] 
[HttpPost] 
        public IActionResult Upload(string target) 
        { 
            SignatureTask obj = new SignatureTask(); 
            // Saving the signature value in model object 
            obj.SaveValueObject = target; 
            return View(); 
        } 

Please, let us know if you need any further assistance. 

Thanks, 
Christo
