A way to get binary output about flask-shell2http

[eshaan7]

Is there a way to configure an endpoint to return binary data, for example, in base64?

You could try the unix pipe | your command to base64. For example, echo "Hello" | base64. Might need to put your command in a custom script (.sh/.py/etc) to use pipes though (refer to this example).

You may be able to use a decorator to achieve this too (example).

Thank you for your suggestion. I ended up creating this wrapper script:

#!/bin/sh
<the-command> "$@" | base64 --wrap 0

and it's called like this:

shell2http.register_command(endpoint="some-enpoint", command_name="./script.sh")

Works like a charm!
