Incorporating Images in Article

[apix7]

We can seamlessly incorporate several relevant images into the generated article by taking advantage of free services. I experimented with DuckDuckGo search—it’s free and unlimited, and I was impressed with the quality.

code might look like something like this :

class DDGS:
    ...

    def images(self, keywords: str, max_results: int = config.DEFAULT_IMAGE_RESULTS):
        vqd = self._get_vqd(keywords)
        payload = {
            "q": keywords,
            "vqd": vqd,
            "o": "json",
            "f": ",,",
            "p": "-2",
            "ex": "-2"
        }
        results = []
        try:
            for page in range(3):
                payload["p"] = str(page + 1)
                resp_content = self._get_url("GET", "https://duckduckgo.com/i.js", params=payload)
                data = json.loads(resp_content)
                
                for item in data.get("results", []):
                    results.append({
                        "title": item.get("title", ""),
                        "image": item.get("image", ""),
                        "thumbnail": item.get("thumbnail", ""),
                        "source": item.get("source", ""),
                        "height": item.get("height", ""),
                        "width": item.get("width", "")
                    })
                    if len(results) >= max_results:
                        return results
                
                if not data.get("results"):
                    break
                    
            return results
        except Exception as e:
            logger.warning(f"Error fetching image results: {str(e)}")
            return []

with a prompt like :

"Please choose few images that best illustrate the content of the article. In your final article, insert the chosen images using the format ![caption] (URL) at appropriate locations where they enhance the narrative.\n"
