How to convert pdf from url to image using pdf2image in python?

Question

I am able to convert pdf file in my drive to images using pdf2image convert_to_path but when I try the same for pdf ' https://example.com/abc.pdf ', end up with multiple errors.

Code :

url = 'https://example.com/abc.pdf'
scrape = urlopen(url)  # for external files
pil_images = pdf2image.convert_from_bytes(scrape.read(), dpi=200, 
             output_folder=None, first_page=None, last_page=None,
             thread_count=1, userpw=None,use_cropbox=False, strict=False,
             poppler_path=r"C:\poppler-0.68.0_x86\poppler-0.68.0\bin",)

Error:

   Unable to get page count. Syntax Error: Document stream is empty

First download pdf from URL as per mention in this blog. https://dzone.com/articles/simple-examples-of-downloading-files-using-python

Then use this convert pdf to image or any other format in series if you have multiple pages in pdf.

import ghostscript

def pdf2jpeg(pdf_input_path, jpeg_output_path):
    args = ["pdf2jpeg", # actual value doesn't matter
            "-dNOPAUSE",
            "-sDEVICE=jpeg",
            "-r144",
            "-sOutputFile=" + jpeg_output_path,
            pdf_input_path]
    ghostscript.Ghostscript(*args)

For authentication try this.

import os
import requests

from urlparse import urlparse

username = 'foo'
password = 'sekret'

url = 'http://example.com/blueberry/download/somefile.jpg'
filename = os.path.basename(urlparse(url).path)

r = requests.get(url, auth=(username,password))

if r.status_code == 200:
   with open(filename, 'wb') as out:
      for bits in r.iter_content():
          out.write(bits)
