python convert image to base64
import base64 file = 'deer.jpg' image = open(file, 'rb') image_read = image.read() image_64_encode = base64.encodebytes(image_read) #encodestring also works aswell as decodestring print('This is the image in base64: ' + str(image_64_encode)) image_64_decode = base64.decodebytes(image_64_encode) image_result = open('deer_decode.jpg', 'wb') # create a writable image and write the decoding result image_result.write(image_64_decode)
