Environment I am currently working:
- Windows 10
- Python27
- wkhtmltoimage 0.12.4
- imgkit module
This is my example.py
import os
import imgkit
imgkit.from_url('http://google.com', 'C:\out.jpg')
As this code clearly shows that I am trying to take the screenshot of the google website. But when I run this code in Windows 10 platform what I got, this errors.
INFO: Could not find files for the given pattern(s).
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\testdns.py", line 3, in <module>
imgkit.from_url('http://google.com', 'C:\out.jpg')
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\imgkit\api.py", line 32, in from_url
return rtn.to_img(output_path)
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\imgkit\imgkit.py", line 240, in to_img
raise IOError('wkhtmltoimage reported an error:\n' + stderr)
IOError: wkhtmltoimage reported an error:
Loading page (1/2)
Rendering (2/2)
Error: Could not write to output file
Error: Could not save image
Done
Exit with code 1, due to unknown error.
Now I don't know how to proceed
Try this:
The above code will save image in root directory of the script. Or you can change
out.jpgto any folder to which you have access like Documents Folder or Pictures Folder.
