# Gemini Image Generation Generate images using Google's Gemini model. ## When to Use - User asks for image generation and DALL-E is not available - User specifically requests Gemini - Image editing with text instructions ## Generate an Image ```bash curl -s -X POST "https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-2.0-flash-exp:generateContent?key=$GEMINI_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "contents": [{"parts": [{"text": "Generate an image of: detailed description here"}]}], "generationConfig": {"responseModalities": ["TEXT", "IMAGE"]} }' ``` ## Response Response contains `candidates[0].content.parts[]`. Image data appears in parts with: - `inlineData.mimeType` (e.g., `image/png`) - `inlineData.data` (base64-encoded) Save to file: ```bash echo "BASE64_DATA" | base64 -d > image.png ``` ## Notes - Free tier available with rate limits - Model availability may vary — check Google AI Studio - Supports both generation and editing via text prompts
