A tiny Falcon app for requesting images with cloudscraper and returning the image data as a base64 string.

You can choose to either follow the Docker route or plain (Python) route.

docker pull t0shy/cloudscraper-image:latest
# or
docker build -t t0shy/cloudscraper-image:latest --no-cache .

Install the requirements with pip.

pip install -r requirements.txt

docker run -dit --name cloudscraper-image t0shy/cloudscraper-image:latest

Note: You can remove the container after usage:

docker rm -f cloudscraper-image

python setup.py

curl http://<container-ip>:8000/image?url=<encoded-url>

Note: You can get the IP address of the container by running the following command:

docker inspect --format "{{ .NetworkSettings.IPAddress }}" cloudscraper-image

curl http://127.0.0.1:8000/image?url=<encoded-url>

The response will be a base64 string. To test/verify if this data is correct, you can use tools like Base64.guru to convert it back to an image.

To simplify development, a Taskfile.yml is included. While the usage is optional, Task simplifies the setup for your development environment. Installation guide for Task can be found at taskfile.dev/installation.
