Python 3 Pillow Script to Generate Image of Any Color & Size in Command Line

Welcome folks today in this blog post we will be using the pillow library in python to generate the image of any color and size. All the full source code of the application is shown below.

Get Started

In order to get started you need to make an app.py file and copy paste the following code and also install the below library using the pip command as shown below

pip install pillow

app.py

from PIL import Image

# Create a new image with a white background
image = Image.new('RGB', (1280, 720), 'red')

# Save the image to a file
image.save('image.jpg')

# Send the content-type header
print("Content-Type: image/jpeg")

# Send the image file
with open('image.jpg', 'rb') as f:
    print(f.read())

from PIL import Image

# Create a new image with a white background

image = Image.new('RGB', (1280, 720), 'red')

# Save the image to a file

image.save('image.jpg')

# Send the content-type header

print("Content-Type: image/jpeg")

# Send the image file

with open('image.jpg', 'rb') as f:

print(f.read())

As you can see we are importing the pillow library and then we are generating the image with a solid background color of red we are providing the rgb color. And also we are providing the custom width and height. And then we are saving the generated image in the root directory by setting the headers and then we are opening the image using the open() method. And inside it we are passing the path of the image and we are opening the image in read binary mode.
