Insert image in openpyxl

Question

Is it possible to insert an image (jpeg, png, etc) using openpyxl?

Basically I want to place a generated image with a chart below it.

I don't see anything in the documentation, which seems to be a little lacking compared to the maturity of the code.

The following inserts an image in cell A1. Adjust the image location to your needs or handle the creation of the PIL image yourself and hand that to Image()

import openpyxl  wb = openpyxl.Workbook() ws = wb.worksheets[0] img = openpyxl.drawing.image.Image('test.jpg') img.anchor = 'A1' ws.add_image(img) wb.save('out.xlsx') 

In older versions of openpyxl the following works:

import openpyxl  wb = openpyxl.Workbook() ws = wb.worksheets[0] img = openpyxl.drawing.Image('test.jpg') img.anchor(ws.cell('A1')) ws.add_image(img) wb.save('out.xlsx')
