I am using google-image-search API without any problem. I want to get the name of the file that is downloaded (or potentially give it a different name). I need to pass the name of the file to another python script.
If important:
OS: Ubuntu 22.04
Python 3.11.4
Here is the code I'm using:
def get_image(image_keyword=""):
from dotenv import load_dotenv
import os
from google_images_search import GoogleImagesSearch
if not os.path.exists('images/'):
os.mkdir('images/')
spath = 'images/'
if os.path.exists(".env"):
load_dotenv()
else:
print(".env file missing, please create one with your API and CX")
dk = os.environ.get('DEVELOPER_KEY')
cx = os.environ.get('CX')
gis = GoogleImagesSearch(dk, cx)
_search_params = {
'q': image_keyword,
'num': 1,
'imageColorType': 'color',
'fileType': 'jpg',
'safe': 'high'
}
gis.search(search_params=_search_params, path_to_dir=spath)
get_image("")
Is there a argument in the search method that saves the file with a given name? If not, can I extract the name of the file from the search method?
