title: Sending Image data through GET request on REST API
body: <p>I have a REST API at the backend (built on flask). Now i need to send/upload an image at the client side and return JSON in response. So that would be GET request with Image data. Since i'm new to the client side interface, what could be the simplest way to send an image data to the server? There just needs to be an upload image button to get the JSON in response. I've read answers to base64 encode the image file and send it with no simple example on how it should be done. Many have suggested Knockout or Angular but i don't have much time to go through them. Please suggest if there's a simpler way as well. </p>
