Unable to add new canvas element with an existing one

I am using 2 canvas elements. I am using one element as a main canvas element which has all the elements. I am generating a barcode in a separate canvas and would like to add it to the main canvas. Trying for a long time. Adding an example here fiddle

$(document).ready(function() {
 JsBarcode('#barcode', "1234", {
    width: 4,
    height: 20//displayValue: false
  });
  var bc = document.getElementById("barcode");
  var canvasx = bc.getContext("2d");
  var img1 = new Image();
  img1.src = bc.toDataURL("image/png");


  var c = document.getElementById("labelDesigner");
  var canvas = bc.getContext("2d");
  c.drawImage(img1);

});

I am using facric.js and JsBarcode. Thanks for the help in advance. If there is any other better way kindly suggest

you can use fabric.Image.fromURL and pass the barcode canvas data as url.

DEMO

$(document).ready(function() {
  JsBarcode('#barcode', "1234", {
    width: 4,
    height: 20 //displayValue: false
  });
  var canvas = new fabric.Canvas("labelDesigner");
  var bc = document.getElementById("barcode");
  fabric.Image.fromURL(bc.toDataURL(),function(img){
   img.set({
      left: 0,
      top: 0
    })
   canvas.add(img);
  })
});
canvas[id^=c], div[id=output] {
    border: 1px solid red;
}

canvas[id=buffer] {
    border: 1px dotted green;
}

#output {
    padding: 15px;
}

#output img {
    border: 1px dotted blue;
}

<canvas id="barcode"></canvas>
<canvas id="labelDesigner" width="410" height="200" style="border:1px solid #000000;margin-left:200px"></canvas>

The drawImage-function can take another canvas as an argument, so you do not have to convert to an image inbetween. However, it always requires the x and y coordinates as the second and third parameters.

You had also swapped your c and canvas variables:

$(document).ready(function() {
 JsBarcode('#barcode', "1234", {
    width: 4,
    height: 20//displayValue: false
  });
  var bc = document.getElementById("barcode");
  var c = document.getElementById("labelDesigner");
  var context = c.getContext("2d");

  context.drawImage(bc, 0, 0);
});
