使用reportlab生成pdf时解决IOError并生成二维码图像

Question

I am trying to generate a qr code from text, and then insert into a reportlab pdf.

My code:

def qr_code_as_image(text):
    from io import BytesIO
    print("In show_qr")
    img = generate_qr_code(text)
    print(img, type(img))
    i = Image(img)
    print(i, type(i))
    return i

def add_patient_header_with_qr(self):
    line1 = ("Name", self.linkedcustomer.name,
             "Age", self.linkedcustomer.age())
    line2 = ("MRD No.", self.linkedcustomer.cstid,
             "Date", self.prescription_time)
    line3 = ("No.", "#", "Doctor", self.doc.name)
    datatb = [line1, line2, line3]
    patientdetailstable = Table(datatb)
    patientdetailstable.setStyle(self.patientdetails_style)
    col1 = patientdetailstable

    checkin_url = reverse('clinicemr', args=[self.checkin.checkinno])
    qr_image = qr_code_as_image(checkin_url)
    qr_image.hAlign = 'LEFT'

    col2 = Table([[qr_image]])

    tblrow1 = Table([[col1, col2]], colWidths=None)
    tblrow1.setStyle(self.table_left_top_align)
    self.elements.append(tblrow1)

def final_generate(self, footer_content, action=None):
        with NamedTemporaryFile(mode='w+b') as temp:
            from django.http import FileResponse, Http404
            from functools import partial

            # use the temp file
            cmd = "cat " + str(temp.name)
            print(os.system(cmd))
            print(footer_content, type(footer_content))
            doc = SimpleDocTemplate(
                temp.name,
                pagesize=A4,
                rightMargin=20,
                leftMargin=20,
                topMargin=20,
                bottomMargin=80,
                allowSplitting=1,
                title="Prescription",
                author="System.com")
            frame = Frame(doc.leftMargin, doc.bottomMargin, doc.width, doc.height,
                          id='normal')
            template = PageTemplate(
                id='test',
                frames=frame,
                onPage=partial(footer, content=footer_content)
            )

            doc.addPageTemplates([template])
            doc.build(self.elements,
                      onFirstPage=partial(footer, content=footer_content),
                      onLaterPages=partial(footer, content=footer_content)
                      )

            print(f'Generated {temp.name}')

I get the following output:

From the error, it appears that it is erroring out on getting the name of the image file. But there is no file. The image is being generated from BytesIO.

Answer 1

Your generate_qr_code function, which you did not show us, is NOT returning a BytesIO object. It's returning the raw bytes of the PNG image. When you print(img, type(img)) , it told you it was of type "bytes", right? That's a string of bytes, not a BytesIO object. If you wrap those bytes into a BytesIO object, then the reportlab Image constructor will be able to handle it.
