Hi !

The title of the post is enough to describe the next piece of code:

Webserver App to receive binay content and save this as a file locally

Here it is.

	from flask import Flask, request, jsonify

	app = Flask(__name__)

	imgCounter = 0

	@app.route("/save", methods=["POST"])
	def save_file():

	# log a line
	print("save file requested")

	# get the byte array from the request body
	bodyByteArray = request.get_data()

	# increment the counter
	global imgCounter
	imgCounter += 1

	# define image name using the counter
	imgName = "img" + str(imgCounter) + ".jpg"

	# save bodyByteArray to disk
	with open(imgName, "wb") as f:
	f.write(bodyByteArray)

	return jsonify({'msg': 'success', 'file name': [imgName]})


	if __name__ == "__main__":
	app.run(host="127.0.0.1", port=5000, debug=True)

And, while we perform some posts to the http endpoint, we can start to see the local files in the same folder of the python file.

Happy coding!
