问题:

Is there some way I could get the Bing background image programmatically?

Bing's API doesn't seem to provide such functionality, perhaps there's another way?

回答1:

I think the best way is immitating the way they do it themselves through their AJAX calls.

They call this URL and extract the information through XML deserialization.

XML: http://www.bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=xml&idx=0&n=1&mkt=en-US

JSON: http://www.bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=js&idx=0&n=1&mkt=en-US

RSS: http://www.bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=rss&idx=0&n=1&mkt=en-US

The mkt attribute can obviously be changed to a different region than ´en-US´, but can also be opted out of entirely if you don't care about a specific region.

Note that the _1366x768.jpg suffix that is added to the image names appears to be modifiable into different resolutions (like _1920x1080.jpg for full HD and possibly others).

Here's a dump of the data as of 9/28/2013, in XML format.

JSON FORMAT of BING IMAGE

I found a way to fetch the JSON format of the Bing Image of the day

http://www.bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=js&idx=0&n=1

Note

n= The no of images u want( u can use Integers) ,
mkt= Your location (example: en-US)

Here is the JSON output looks like

  {
  "images": [
    {
      "startdate": "20141214",
      "fullstartdate": "201412141830",
      "enddate": "20141215",

      "urlbase": "\/az\/hprichbg\/rb\/BlackButte_EN-IN7038391888",
      "copyright": "Black Butte, seen from the Mount Jefferson Wilderness, Oregon, USA (\u00a9 Marc Adamus\/Aurora Photos)",
      "copyrightlink": "http:\/\/www.bing.com\/search?q=Black+Butte&qs=n&form=hpcapt&mkt=en-in&pq=black+butte&sc=8-11&sp=-1&sk=&cvid=228ac7f125f94bbaafd4a4abd4f9a32d",

      "bot": 1,
      "hs": [

      ],

          "text": "It's mountaineer's dream view"
        }
      ]
    }
  ],
  "tooltips": {
    "loading": "Loading...",
    "previous": "Previous",
    "next": "Next",
    "walle": "This image is not available to download as wallpaper.",
    "walls": "Download this image. Use of this image is restricted to wallpaper only."
  }
}

use the url from the images[]

and add it to 'http://bing.com'

here url is "url": "\/az\/hprichbg\/rb\/DayGecko_EN-US8730336235_1366x768.jpg"

回答3:

Microsoft has recently published a Bing Dynamic Theme for Windows 7, which contains an RSS Feed with links to Bing wallpapers.

There's also a Python script which tries to load the Bing website and guess the correct image URL, but from my experience, it usually results in a lower resolution image than those offered by the RSS feed.

回答4:

I'm late to the party, but in case someone needs a PHP implementation: I've written a simple class which handles the procedure:

回答5:

I like Bing images too but their app is too bloated for the purpose of downloading images. After analyzing connection with fiddler, I wrote this code. The 1920x1200 comes with Bing logo embedded but lower resolutions do not have it.

You can have windows show you random images from the image folder you set, so as you download them daily, it'll show you more random images. If you do keep the "imageDir", you need to change the permissions on that folder or it will crash, I did not bother with catching errors. Lastly, un-comment the lines if you want to set your wallpaper to today's image or you can create a task to run the program, say a minute after logon.

            for (byte i = 6; i >= 0; i--)
            {
                imageFileName = imgDir + DateTime.Today.AddDays(-i).ToString("yyy-MM-dd") + ".jpg";

                if (!File.Exists(imageFileName))
                {

回答6:

I saw that many people are asking for the new RSS link too, just change the format parameter in the URL to "rss".

RSS: http://www.bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=rss&idx=0&n=1&mkt=en-US

回答7:

One liner PowerShell (3.0 or higher)

irm is an alias for Invoke-RestMethod

irm "bing.com$((irm "bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=js&mkt=en-IN&n=1").images[0].url)" -OutFile bing.jpg

回答8:

This JavaScript will answer the 'what to do with the api' by changing the background image of a div to the background of the current day's bing image.

function PullBackground() {
    var ajaxRequest = new XMLHttpRequest(), background = ''; 
    ajaxRequest.open('POST', "http://www.bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=xml&idx=0&n=1&mkt=en-US", true);
    ajaxRequest.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
    ajaxRequest.send('');
    ajaxRequest.onreadystatechange = function () {
        if (ajaxRequest.readyState == 4) {
            background = ajaxRequest.responseText;
            var res = background.split("<url>"); 
            var res1 = res[1].split("</url>");
            background = res1[0];

            document.getElementById('NameOfTheDivToChange').style.backgroundImage = "url('http://bing.com" + background + "')"
            document.getElementById('NameOfTheDivToChange').style.backgroundSize = "100%";
        }
    }
}

Simple PowerShell, place into a folder, create a daily task in Windows Task Scheduler, script saves images at its run folder, then in your Desktop Background settings choose that folder as a background.

[xml]$doc = (New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString("https://www.bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=xml&idx=0&n=1&mkt=ru-RU")
$url = $doc.images.image.url
$url = "https://www.bing.com/" + $url -replace "_1366x768","_1920x1200"

Write-Output $url

$fileName = Split-Path $url -leaf
$output = "$PSScriptRoot\$fileName"

$start_time = Get-Date
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $url -OutFile $output
Write-Output "Saved to: $output Time taken: $((Get-Date).Subtract($start_time).Seconds) second(s)"

回答11:

Let me tell you how to get bing daily wallpaper of the day using javascript and php,

Try this js code:

<script>
      fetch('https://techytricks97.000webhostapp.com/')
      .then(response => response.text())
      .then(text=>{document.body.style.background="url('"+text+"')";document.body.style.backgroundSize='cover';});
</script>

This script sets bing daily image of the day as background of your html document(you can further modify it as per your use).

This link- https://techytricks97.000webhostapp.com returns the bing wallpaper of the day, everyday.

fetch() gets the url of today's bing image from https://techytricks97.000webhostapp.com and text=>{document.body.style.background="url('"+text+"')";document.body.style.backgroundSize='cover';} sets it as background.

Note: Microsoft doesn't allows to use bing daily's images as your site's background, you can use it as phone/desktop wallpaper, or on other things with mentioning copyright.

Here is the php code which is used on http://techytricks97.000webhostapp.com :

<?php
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
$reg=file_get_contents('https://www.bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=js&idx=0&n=1&mkt=en-IN');
$reg=json_decode($reg);
$meka=$reg->images[0]->url;
echo('http://www.bing.com'.$meka);
?>

You can use http://techytricks97.000webhostapp.com only or can setup your own php file on your server.

Another note: I didn't used javascript only, because browser's same-origin-policy restricts it, but fetching from my php file is allowed as I have put header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');in my php code. I could have used another proxies but they have high traffic(my site hardly gets any click in a day).

If you are using any other language, you just have to read this file(http://techytricks97.000webhostapp.com)

Have a look at bing-desktop-wallpaper-changer on Github. The script has been written in python and I hope you find your answer there.

#!/usr/bin/python
#-*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import os
import urllib
import urllib2
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

# Get BingXML file which contains the URL of the Bing Photo of the day
# idx = Number days previous the present day. 0 means current day, 1 means       yesterday, etc
# n = Number of images predious the day given by idx
# mkt denotes your location. e.g. en-US means United States. Put in your  country code
BingXML_URL = "http://www.bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?     format=xml&idx=0&n=1&mkt=en-US"
page = urllib2.urlopen(BingXML_URL)
BingXML = BeautifulSoup(page, "lxml")

# For extracting complete URL of the image
Images = BingXML.find_all('image')
ImageURL = "https://www.bing.com" + Images[0].url.text
ImageName = Images[0].startdate.text+".jpg"

urllib.urlretrieve(ImageURL, ImageName)

I just finally decided to write a script in Python 3 to get the most images (16) from the xml archive.

So now i can archive the images in no effort. Just run the Python script.
I organize the images into Year / Month folders like this: 2018 > 12 December > 2018-12-06.jpg

This script goes in my Bing Wallpapers folder. (which is in my Pictures folder)

import urllib.request as urllib
import xml.etree.ElementTree
from datetime import date
from dateutil import parser
import sys,os

months = "January","Febuary","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December"

def downloadBingImages(start):
    try: data = urllib.urlopen("https://www.bing.com/hpimagearchive.aspx?format=xml&idx=%i&n=8&mkt=en-NZ"%start).read()
    except: sys.exit()
    e = xml.etree.ElementTree.fromstring(data)
    images = e.findall("image")

    for image in images:
        d = parser.parse(image.find("startdate").text) # parse("20181206")

        filename = str(d.date())+".jpg"                         #                  2018-12-06.jpg
        folder = "%i/%i %s/"%(d.year,d.month,months[d.month-1]) # 2018/12 December/
        file = folder+filename                                  # 2018/12 December/2018-12-06.jpg

        if not os.path.exists(folder): os.makedirs(folder)
        exists = os.path.isfile(file)

        url = "https://www.bing.com"+image.find("urlBase").text+"_1920x1200.jpg"
        print(("downloading","exists")[exists],filename,url)
        if not exists:
            try: urllib.urlretrieve(url,file)
            except: sys.exit()

    print()

# downloads the 16 latest bing images
downloadBingImages(-1)
downloadBingImages(7)

Optional extra code to update the wallpaper: (put beneath downloadBingImages(7))

import ctypes,win32con

def getWallpaper():
    ubuf = ctypes.create_unicode_buffer(512)
    ctypes.windll.user32.SystemParametersInfoW(win32con.SPI_GETDESKWALLPAPER,len(ubuf),ubuf,0)
    return ubuf.value

def setWallpaper(path):
    changed = win32con.SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE | win32con.SPIF_SENDCHANGE
    ctypes.windll.user32.SystemParametersInfoW(win32con.SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER,0,path,changed)

# update wallpaper after a week from current
wallpaper = getWallpaper()
if wallpaper.startswith(os.getcwd()): # has to be in script directory
    try: wallpaperDate = parser.parse(os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(wallpaper))[0])
    except: sys.exit() # not using an image with a parsable date

    t = date.today()
    if (t-wallpaperDate.date()).days>=7: # been a week or longer
        setWallpaper(os.path.abspath("%i/%i %s/"%(t.year,t.month,months[t.month-1])+str(t)+".jpg")) # .../2018/12 December/2018-12-14.jpg

P.S. the above script is using &mkt=en-NZ for the New Zealand images.
You can check out the market code for other countries here.

You can also see all the images archived since 2009 for different countries here.
(only in 1366x768 though)

Major P.S. add the script to Task Scheduler to run when logging on. (or daily/weekly)

Create Basic Task
Program/script: python (or C:\Python34\python.exe if it's not in your env path)
arguments: "path/to/your/script.py"
start in: "path/to/your"

You might consider getting the file_content of that url and search the file for the image. Not sure that's the best way, but it is a way.

回答16:

Using the URL from @Siv, here's an example of JavaScript that updates <div class="bgimg" id="background">

function GetImageURL(ans) {
    var suffix = ans.images[0].url 
    document.getElementById("background").style.backgroundImage = 'url("' + 
    'http://bing.com/' + suffix + '"'
}

function GetJSON() {
    var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest()
    var url = "https://www.bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=js&idx=0&n=1"

    xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function () {
        if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
            var ans = JSON.parse(this.responseText);
            GetImageURL(ans);
        }
    };
    xmlhttp.open("GET", url, true);
    xmlhttp.send();
}


window.onload = function () {
    GetJSON()
}

The css for this class is:

.bgimg {
    height: 100%;
    position: relative;
    opacity: 0.95;
    background-position: center;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: cover;
}

回答17:

You can do that using python and wget on a linux machine:

import os # import the os package
os.system("wget -O index.html http://www.bing.com") # download the bing index
str1 = open('index.html', 'r').read() # extract the file path using split
str2=str1.split("g_img={url: \"")[1]
str3=str2.split(".jpg")[0]
os.system("wget -O daily_im.jpg http://www.bing.com" + str3 + ".jpg") # donwload the daily image

It downloads the daily bing background in the local directory under the name daily_im.jpg. You can put everything on a script.py and launch it programmatically.

Here's a simple Python script to fetch the Bing photo of the day using just requests and json:

import requests
import json

BING_URI_BASE = "http://www.bing.com"
BING_WALLPAPER_PATH = "/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=js&idx=0&n=1&mkt=en-US"

# open the Bing HPImageArchive URI and ask for a JSON response
resp = requests.get(BING_URI_BASE + BING_WALLPAPER_PATH)

if resp.status_code == 200:
    json_response = json.loads(resp.content)
    wallpaper_path = json_response['images'][0]['url']
    filename = wallpaper_path.split('/')[-1]
    wallpaper_uri = BING_URI_BASE + wallpaper_path

    # open the actual wallpaper uri, and write the response as an image on the filesystem
    response = requests.get(wallpaper_uri)
    if resp.status_code == 200:
        with open(filename, 'wb') as f:
            f.write(response.content)
    else:
        raise ValueError("[ERROR] non-200 response from Bing server for '{}'".format(wallpaper_uri))
else: 
    raise ValueError("[ERROR] non-200 response from Bing server for '{}'".format(BING_URI_BASE + BING_WALLPAPER_PATH))

This will write a file such as TurtleTears_EN-US7942276596_1920x1080.jpg to the same directory where the script is executed. Of course, can tweak a whole bunch of things here, but gets the job done reasonably easily.

EDIT 09/27/2018: http://www.istartedsomething.com/bingimages responds 404 for weeks. It may do not exist anymore. :-(

You can use istartedsomething.com's Bing Image Archive. It is an unofficial Bing Image Archive. It uses an homemade endpoint which is helpful to retrieve images:

GET /bingimages/getimage.php?id=<image_id>

id is a string containing the date when the image was published and the country where it was published. id has to comply with the following format: YYYYMMDD-xx, where:

YYYY is the year, written with four digits.
MM is the month, written with two digits.
DD is the day, written with two digits.
xx is the country indicator. Bing Image Archive currently supports the following countries:
- au: Australia.
- br: Brazil.
- ca: Canada.
- cn: China.
- de: Deutschland.
- fr: France.
- gb: Great Britain.
- jp: Japan.
- nz: New Zealand.
- uk: United Kingdom.
- us: United States of America.

It returns an useful JSON object if it has some information or false if it hasn't got anything.

Example 1: Retriving the Bing daily image which was published on May, 24th 2014 in New Zealand

The image ID is 20140524-nz because the demanded image was published on 05/24/2014 and it was published in New Zealand, whose country indicator is nz.

http://www.istartedsomething.com/bingimages/getimage.php?id=20140524-nz returns the following piece of JSON:

{
    "url":"\/az\/hprichbg\/rb\/LakeMagadiFlamingos_ROW9792683076_1366x768.jpg",
    "region":"nz",
    "date":"2014-05-24",
    "copyright":"Flamingos take flight, Lake Magadi, Kenya (\u00a9 Bobby Haas\/Getty Images)(Bing New Zealand)",
    "imageurl":"http:\/\/www.istartedsomething.com\/bingimages\/cache\/LakeMagadiFlamingos_ROW9792683076_1366x768.jpg",
    "hotspots":[],
    "video":[]
}

You can use the imageurl field or the url (Bing URL path) field to get your image.

Example 2: Retriving the Bing daily image which was published on July, 12th 1998 in France

The image ID is 19980712-fr because the demanded image was published on 07/12/1998 and it was published in France, whose country indicator is fr.

http://www.istartedsomething.com/bingimages/getimage.php?id=19980712-fr returns false because there is no Bing Daily Image for France on 07/12/1998 (Bing did not even exist at this time).
