Get binary image data from PIL.Image?
If you want to get the actual bytes of the image, just use i.tobytes()
. This is with Pillow
, I'm not sure if it's in the original PIL
module, but from the docs it should be.
In PIL :
Image.open(path).convert('1')
As mentioned in doc
1 mode is for (1-bit pixels, black and white, stored with one pixel per byte)
you can see this answer python Image PIL to binary Hex
The img object needs to be saved again; write it to another BytesIO object:
output = io.BytesIO() img.save(output, format='JPEG')
then get the written data with the .getvalue() method:
hex_data = output.getvalue()
