API to thispersondoesnotexist.com
Project description
ThisPersonDoesNotExistAPI
Unofficial "API" for the ThisPersonDoesNotExist website.
What is ThisPersonDoesNotExist?
A page that returns a JPEG picture of a person that does not exist, because it has been generated using an AI. When opening the webpage, a image is returned directly, and refreshing the page will return a new image (although they can be repeated because the repository is limited and images are not generated on real time).
Some articles about it:
- This Person Does Not Exist - Computer generated people Refresh to get a new one | Product Hunt
- Thispersondoesnotexist.com is face-generating AI at its creepiest
Why creating/using an "API"?
Why not? Use your imagination!
Requirements
- Python 3.6
- requests library
- free time
Usage
Get a person using function
from thispersondoesnotexist import get_online_person
picture = await get_online_person() # bytes representation of the image
# Save to a file
from thispersondoesnotexist import save_picture
await save_picture(picture, "a_beautiful_person.jpeg")
# If no filename is provided, one will be generated using the checksum of the picture
await save_picture(picture)
Get a person using class
from thispersondoesnotexist import Person
# Initialize with True to automatically get a person from the webpage
person = Person(fetch_online=True)
# Save to a file
await person.save("a_beautiful_person.jpeg")
# If no filename is provided, one will be generated using the checksum of the picture
await person.save()
Generate checksums
This can be useful if you want to create a scraper of fictional persons. You would be calling the methods to get random pictures, and to avoid repeating them, you can use their checksum - or just save with the auto-generated filename.
from thispersondoesnotexist import get_online_person, get_checksum_from_picture, Person
# Using object
person = Person(fetch_online=True)
checksum = person.get_checksum("md5")
# Using function
picture = await get_online_person()
checksum2 = get_checksum_from_picture(picture) # Method is optional, defaults to "md5"
