I'm basically came across a code which used local images for Google lens search but I can't understand how the encdoded_image works or where did they get from?

from requests import Session

url = "https://lens.google.com"
session = Session()
multipart = {
    'encoded_image': ("boat.png", open("boat.png", 'rb')),
}

response = session.post(
    url + "/upload",
    files = multipart,
    allow_redirects = False
)

search_url = response.headers.get('Location')

This is what I referred: https://github.com/krishna2206/google-lens-python/blob/master/googlelens/googlelens.py

Can someone help me understand how to debug that in chrome or even launch it with cookies in a browser?

I tried going over to chrome developer tools and it just shows data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQ... a huge string of characters. This is the first mention of that file. I expected to see encoded_image somewhere buried.

  • @Lewis I thought so, but then again I couldn't find any mention in the documentation. Could you help me point it out, if you are able to? Commented Feb 13 at 15:12
