Alibaba Cloud Model Studio:Wan2.5 - general image editing

Request example

This example demonstrates three ways to provide input images: public URL, Base64 encoding, or local file path.

import base64
import mimetypes
from http import HTTPStatus
from urllib.parse import urlparse, unquote
from pathlib import PurePosixPath

import dashscope
import requests
from dashscope import ImageSynthesis
import os

# The following is the URL for the Singapore region. If you use a model in the China (Beijing) region, replace the URL with: https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/api/v1
dashscope.base_http_api_url = 'https://dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/api/v1'

# If you have not configured an environment variable, replace the following line with your Model Studio API key: api_key="sk-xxx"
# The API keys for the Singapore and China (Beijing) regions are different. Get an API key: https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/model-studio/get-api-key
api_key = os.getenv("DASHSCOPE_API_KEY")

# --- Image input: Use Base64 encoding ---
# The Base64 encoding format is data:{MIME_type};base64,{base64_data}
def encode_file(file_path):
    mime_type, _ = mimetypes.guess_type(file_path)
    if not mime_type or not mime_type.startswith("image/"):
        raise ValueError("Unsupported or unrecognized image format")
    with open(file_path, "rb") as image_file:
        encoded_string = base64.b64encode(image_file.read()).decode('utf-8')
    return f"data:{mime_type};base64,{encoded_string}"

"""
Choose one image input method:
1. Public URL - for publicly accessible images
2. Local file - for local development/testing
3. Base64 - for private images or encrypted transmission
"""

# [Method 1] Use a public image URL
image_url_1 = "https://img.alicdn.com/imgextra/i3/O1CN0157XGE51l6iL9441yX_!!6000000004770-49-tps-1104-1472.webp"

# [Method 2] Use a local file (supports absolute and relative paths)
# Format requirement: file:// + file path
# Example (absolute path):
# image_url_1 = "file://" + "/path/to/your/image_1.png"     # Linux/macOS
# image_url_2 = "file://" + "C:/path/to/your/image_2.png"  # Windows
# Example (relative path):
# image_url_1 = "file://" + "./image_1.png"                 # Use your actual path
# image_url_2 = "file://" + "./image_2.png"                # Use your actual path

# [Method 3] Use a Base64-encoded image
# image_url_1 = encode_file("./image_1.png")               # Use your actual path
# image_url_2 = encode_file("./image_2.png")              # Use your actual path
