Shared folder for downloaded image

[Huy-Ngo]

Since two of our API sources (Kaggle and ISIC) require downloading to the backend, let's move those images to a common folder backend/images/ for ease of hosting. They should be named in a way to avoid conflict (e.g. prefixing with ISIC- and Kaggle-). As far as I'm aware ISIC images are already prefixed, not sure about Kaggle.

I will link those in the route /images manually then.

Reopen this issue.

I just learned that files in the ./static/ are served automatically by flask where . is the same directory as app.py. Please move the downloaded images folder to backend/static/isic/ and backend/static/kaggle/ @dinhanhx @casker2209

Like this:

If possible, please move the config file inside the project folder as well @dinhanhx

The kaggle api token file's path is fixed and defined by module kaggle-api. Therefore it's not possible for me to move it into project folder.

OK then. Until this issue is resolved, I'll finish my PR as it it already has been.

According to my own kaggle doc download func, you can specify download path by yourself.

For example, I assume you have this block of code in app.py,

from pathlib import Path
import kaggle

download_path = './static/kaggle/'
download_path = Path(download_path)
dataset_path = kaggle.download('dinhanhx/skin-cancer-mnist-ham10000', download_path)
scm = kaggle.SkinCancerMnist(dataset_path)

Oh I see.
