How to send image generated by PIL to browser?

Question

I\'m using flask for my application. I\'d like to send an image (dynamically generated by PIL) to client without saving on disk.

Any idea how to do this ?

Answer 1

It turns out that flask provides a solution (rtm to myself!):

from flask import abort, send_file
try:
    return send_file(image_file)
except:
    abort(404)
