Fetch an image using the Fetch API
var myImage = 'someimage.jpg';
fetch(myImage)
.then(response => response.blob()) //To extract the image body content from the response, we use the blob() method
.then(myBlob => {
// An objectURL is then created from the extracted Blob, which is then inserted into the img.
const objectURL = URL.createObjectURL(myBlob);
myImage.src = objectURL;
});
