Display PIL Image object

[Ben Sharif]

I am using qrcode library to generate a QR code. 

controller:

def create_qr():

    import qrcode

    text = "hello world test string"

    img = qrcode.make(text)  

    return locals()

view:

<img src="{{=img}}">

using the above code, img is being returned as a PIL Image object but the view is not displaying an image. 

how can I make the view display the generated PIL Image object? do i need to save the image somewhere first and if so, how?

thanks,

ben
