How to store images in ArangoDB?

Question

I want to store images in ArangoDb as image file. I want to know if there is any API or Java API for the same. Thanking You in advance.

there is no binary support in ArangoDB yet, you could store it as Base64 encoded — raoof hojat, Jan 27 '16 at 14:01

Storing binary data inside ArangoDB has been a long standing feature request. Currently its not possible out of the box.

One can however do this by creating a foxx service that handles the data. The recommended way is to create a file and reference that file name inside the database.

A detailed description and an example foxx app can be found in the cookbook
