OEWriteImageToString¶

std::string OEWriteImageToString(const std::string &ext,
                                 const OEImage &image)

Writes the image into a string.

ext: The extension which determine the type of the image.
image: The OEImage object which is being written into the string.

Example:

mol = oechem.OEGraphMol()
oechem.OESmilesToMol(mol, "c1ccccc1")
oedepict.OEPrepareDepiction(mol)

image = oedepict.OEImage(200, 200)
oedepict.OERenderMolecule(image, mol)
data = oedepict.OEWriteImageToString("svg", image)

Note

In Python 3 the OEWriteImageToString function returns bytes.
