I am trying to insert a file to mysql server by sending a io.BytesIO() object in a blob datatype, then send the file back to my client. however my client receives a str class instead of the actual io.BytesIO() class

so instead of receiving <_io.BytesIO object as 0X7....> I receive "<_io.BytesIO object as 0X7....>".

is there anyway of converting str to BytesIO?

How are you creating the BytesIO object, and how are you passing it to MySQL? Please edit your question to show your code. – mechanical_meat May 22 '20 at 21:57

`BytesIO.getbuffer()` to obtain the underlying buffer? – Aaron May 22 '20 at 22:21
