Copy image from a website

Ruby
1

I’m trying to copy an image from a website, but can’t seem to get it
right.

I know rio can copy a website in one line, but what about images?
Anyone have a good snippet using open-uri or something?

web page = (virtual) file
image = (virtual) file

just use open-uri + read and write the contents somewhere.

require ‘open-uri’

File.open(‘logo.gif’, ‘wb’) do |f|
f.write(open(‘http://www.google.com/intl/en_ALL/images/logo.gif’).read)
end

Using mechanize:

require ‘mechanize’

agent = WWW::Mechanize.new
img = agent.get(“http://www.example.com/image.jpg”)
img.save

will load the JPEG image image.jpg from the site www.example.com and
save it as image.jpg on the local filesystem.
