Data uri’s for images in command line (Mac OSx)

If you want to get the data-uri for images via command line. Use the following command. 

openssl base64 -in /path/to/file.png | tr -d ‘\n’ | pbcopy 

This will return the string to your clipboard and you can cmd+v it in your code. For example

background: url(‘data:image/png;base64,[return string]’);
