How to save a PNG image server-side, from a base64 data string

Question

I\'m using Nihilogic\'s \"Canvas2Image\" JavaScript tool to convert canvas drawings to PNG images. What I need now is to turn those base64 strings that this tool generates,

Answer 1

Total concerns:

$data = 'data:image/png;base64,AAAFBfj42Pj4';

// Extract base64 file for standard data
$fileBin = file_get_contents($data);
$mimeType = mime_content_type($data);

// Check allowed mime type
if ('image/png'==$mimeType) {
    file_put_contents('name.png', $fileBin);
}
