I try to use in my web application images from a raspberry pi where all images are inserted in a RabbitMq queque. Image is published after I convert it using this function:
def im2json(im):
imdata = pickle.dumps(im)
jstr = json.dumps(base64.b64encode(imdata).decode('ascii'))
return jstr
In php I tried this:
$imgString = $jsonRes->hits->hits[0]->_source->image;
echo "<img src='data:image/jpeg;base64, " . base64_encode($imgString) . "' />";
But it doesn't work, is there something that I miss because of python script?
This is the result:
Images are stored in Elasticsearech, that's the reason I used hits->hits.
It gets longer than I can write in comments, so trying to make an answer:
import base64
import io
import json
import numpy as np
from PIL import Image
def im2json(im):
to_save = Image.fromarray(np.array(im))
target = io.BytesIO()
to_save.save(target, 'JPEG')
target.seek(0) # Go to the beginning of stream
# No pickle is needed
return json.dumps(base64.b64encode(target.read()).decode('ascii'))
And on php side
$imgString = $jsonRes->hits->hits[0]->_source->image;
echo "<img src='data:image/jpeg;base64, " . $imgString . "' />";
You shouldn't pickle BytesIO itself, you need just to base64-encode its binary content.
If it doesn't work, try removing json.dumps, I'm not sure that quotes are really needed.

What is the way to get file type from base64 string?
I need a solution which will work on Windows and Linux(Centos7)
E.G.: This is string ; eHh4eHh4 which is = to a text file with xxxxxx inside.
If websites can do this, I guess it is possible to do it in python:
https://base64.guru/converter/decode/file
What I have tried:
using magic
using imghdr
You could write the base64 content into BytesIO:
import base64
import magic # https://pypi.org/project/python-magic/
import io
data = 'iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAYAAAAfFcSJAAAADUlEQVR42mNk+P+/HgAFhAJ/wlseKgAAAABJRU5ErkJggg=='
bytesData = io.BytesIO()
bytesData.write(base64.b64decode(data))
bytesData.seek(0) # Jump to the beginning of the file-like interface to read all content!
print(magic.from_buffer(bytesData.read()))
Out:
PNG image data, 1 x 1, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced
The main problem is that, from what I could find, there is no easy/documented way to load an image from base64 encoded image. I use the following code to encode the image to base64 (so that I wouldn't need to include all the images with the source, nor should I create temp files and delete them at exit). The image format I use is .png which is supported in Gtk3+. (from GdkPixbuf.Pixbuf.get_formats() i have ['png'] in the results. I am really confused on how to use Gtk3+ for this purpose.
import base64
image_name = 'image.png'
image_loc = 'd:\\Home\\' + image_name
with open(image_loc, 'rb') as image_file:
encoded_string = base64.b64encode(image_file.read())
print(encoded_string)
I want to use the output for example:
base64_data="""

And render the image from base64.
As a side note, on tkinter this was easily done with:
tkinter.PhotoImage(data=base64_data)
And then display the image where you needed it.
Getting back to Gtk3+, I didn't find a method of loading the image from base64. Even with GdkPixbuf.Pixbuf.new_from_data, I get a broken image. I have also tried with Gio.MemoryInputStream.new_from_bytes, but it says that the format of the image isn't supported.
Your data is base64 encoded, in order for Gtk3+ to use it, you must first decode it:
import base64
raw_data = base64.b64decode(data)
Then you were right with GdkPixbuf.Pixbuf.new_from_data:
(I cannot test, but I think this may work)
import base64
raw_data = base64.b64decode(data)
image = GdkPixbuf.Pixbuf.new_from_data(raw_data)
image_show_2.set_from_pixbuf(image)
Else you can do as you showed:
import base64
raw_data = base64.b64decode(data)
byting = GLib.Bytes(raw_data)
inputing = Gio.MemoryInputStream.new_from_bytes(byting)
image = GdkPixbuf.Pixbuf.new_from_data(inputing)
image_show_2.set_from_pixbuf(image)
Is it possible to generate a functional image tag in html from a BytesIO buffer? I'd like to do something along these lines:
import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('Agg')
import pylab
import Image
import io
temp_data = {'x':[1,2,3],'y':[2,4,5]}
pylab.plot(temp_data['x'], temp_data['y'])
img_buffer = io.BytesIO()
pylab.savefig(img_buffer, format = 'png')
img_buffer.seek(0)
img_tag = "<img src='data:image/png;base64,'" + img_buffer.getvalue() + "</img>"
May be necessary to re-format the value of the buffer in some way, or to change the content of the 'src' data. Thank you.
Python2
Towards the end of the code above, do this
import base64
img_tag = "<img src='data:image/png;base64," + base64.b64encode(img_buffer.getvalue()) + "'/>"
Python3
For this to work in python3 you will need to decode the bytes variable generated from base64.b64encode using str.decode method into a string as follows
import base64
str_equivalent_image = base64.b64encode(img_buffer.getvalue()).decode()
img_tag = "<img src='data:image/png;base64," + str_equivalent_image + "'/>"
If you are working with Flask, then you can return the UTF-8 format of the image and play with it.
figfile = BytesIO()
plt.savefig(figfile, format='png')
plt.clf() # this will clear the image
figfile.seek(0)
figdata_png = base64.b64encode(figfile.getvalue())
return figdata_png.decode('UTF-8')
Remember to mention it in <img/> tags. This is to implement in Flask.
I am looking to create base64 inline encoded data of images for display in a table using canvases. Python generates and creates the web page dynamically. As it stands python uses the Image module to create thumbnails. After all of the thumbnails are created Python then generates base64 data of each thumbnail and puts the b64 data into hidden spans on the user's webpage. A user then clicks check marks by each thumbnail relative to their interest. They then create a pdf file containing their selected images by clicking a generate pdf button. The JavaScript using jsPDF generates the hidden span b64 data to create the image files in the pdf file and then ultimately the pdf file.
I am looking to hopefully shave down Python script execution time and minimize some disk I/O operations by generating the base64 thumbnail data in memory while the script executes.
Here is an example of what I would like to accomplish.
import os, sys
import Image
size = 128, 128
im = Image.open("/original/image/1.jpeg")
im.thumbnail(size)
thumb = base64.b64encode(im)
This doesn't work sadly, get a TypeErorr -
TypeError: must be string or buffer, not instance
Any thoughts on how to accomplish this?
You first need to save the image again in JPEG format; using the im.tostring() method would otherwise return raw image data that no browser would recognize:
from io import BytesIO
output = BytesIO()
im.save(output, format='JPEG')
im_data = output.getvalue()
This you can then encode to base64:
image_data = base64.b64encode(im_data)
if not isinstance(image_data, str):
# Python 3, decode from bytes to string
image_data = image_data.decode()
data_url = 'data:image/jpg;base64,' + image_data
Here is one I made with this method:

In Python 3, you may need to use BytesIO:
from io import BytesIO
...
outputBuffer = BytesIO()
bg.save(outputBuffer, format='JPEG')
bgBase64Data = outputBuffer.getvalue()
# http://stackoverflow.com/q/16748083/2603230
return 'data:image/jpeg;base64,' + base64.b64encode(bgBase64Data).decode()
thumb = base64.b64encode(im.tostring())
I think would work
I use PNG when I save to the buffer. With JPEG the numpy arrays are a bit different.
import base64
import io
import numpy as np
from PIL import Image
image_path = 'dog.jpg'
img2 = np.array(Image.open(image_path))
# Numpy -> b64
buffered = io.BytesIO()
Image.fromarray(img2).save(buffered, format="PNG")
b64image = base64.b64encode(buffered.getvalue())
# b64 -> Numpy
img = np.array(Image.open(io.BytesIO(base64.b64decode(b64image))))
print(img.shape)
np.testing.assert_almost_equal(img, img2)
Note that it will be slower.
I'm currently developing a small script to take screenshots and upload them to imgur using Python.

I get a response from imgur but when I open the link I get a blank image (though its resolution is correct). I think the base64 encoding method may be off but I'm at a loss.
You should use b64encode from the base64 module. I don't know why, but it gives different results:
from base64 import b64encode
(...)
data = urllib.urlencode({"key":'MY_API_KEY', "image":urllib.quote(b64encode(open(dir,'rb').read()))})
