Does anyone have any examples on how to actually, save signature to database using rails?

@PatrickatPaperlessPCS

Deployed this successfully - unfortunately the signature doesn't fit in the form well. It cuts off portions of the signature - any ideas on how to resize not just the pad as shown in the documentation, but the signature itself?

Has anyone done this with CarrierWave? I'm new to rails, and don't have a clue how to even get started with this.

is there any way to adjust the stroke font size ?

ghost commented Jul 13, 2020

@lrbz - checkout signature-pad's options'. By default stroke is 2px wide, but you can adjust it :)

create file field hidden id profile_signature for attachment

var canvas = document.querySelector("canvas");
  var imfile;
  canvas.toBlob((blob) => {
    imfile = new File([blob], "signature.jpg", { type: "image/jpeg" })
    let dt = new DataTransfer();
    dt.items.add(imfile);
    document.getElementById("profile_signature").files = dt.files;
  });

first it will convert base64 into image and then attach it to your hidden field

Here, the field "profile_signature" will look like what in HTML?

@harshitDispatch Looks like it should be a <input type="file">
