matplotlib embed figures in auto generated html [duplicate]

You can write the image into a temporary file and encode it with base64 and then embed the encoded base64 image into your html. Most modern browsers will correctly render the image.

A short example modified from your code will be:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import base64
from io import BytesIO

fig = plt.figure()
#plot sth

tmpfile = BytesIO()
fig.savefig(tmpfile, format="png")
encoded = base64.b64encode(tmpfile.getvalue()).decode('utf-8')

html="Some html head" + '<img src=\'data:image/png;base64,{}\'>'.format(encoded) + 'Some more html'

with open('test.html','w') as f:
    f.write(html)
