Insert image blob into MySQL database using python and retrieve the blob to display image using PHP












0















I am working on a project where we are storing some images in the database as a blob using python and we want to access the image blobs from database via php to display those images. We are using Python3 and MySQL. We are storing imagedata to the database as a blob in the following way:



import MySQLdb
import base64

dbConnector = MySQLdb.connect(host=host_name, user=user_name, passwd=password, db=db_name)
cursor = dbConnector.cursor()

with open("Path/to/image.jpeg", 'rb') as f:
imagedata = f.read()
imagedata = base64.b64encode(imagedata)

cursor.execute("INSERT INTO {} (image_data) VALUES (%s)".format(table_name), (imagedata,))

dbConnector.commit()


To display the images on webpage, we have tried using



<img src="data:image/jpeg;base64,{image_data_retrieved_from_database}" height="60px"/>


but no images are being displayed. What are we doing wrong? What can we do to fix this?

  • @IdontDownVote I just got the message that the code is working on the web server, but not on a local server. I will close this question for now. If I get any useful information later on, I will update here. Thanks for your time.
