How to work with Images in Python

You have images and you want to do something with them. You're in luck! The toolbox package can help you get this done.

Install the miro-vision-toolbox with a pip install miro-vision-toolbox

Inside of your_script.py you can now import the get_pil_im() function from the toolbox.img_utils module:

# your_script.py
from toolbox.img_utils import get_pil_im

After you've imported the function, you can use it to load any images you need:

# your_script.py
from toolbox.img_utils import get_pil_im

print(get_pil_im("https://random.imagecdn.app/500/150"))  # OUTPUT: <PIL.PngImagePlugin.PngImageFile image mode=RGBA size=500x150 at 0x1106B3810>

You're now able to get a PIL image object, and you can do more things with it!
