03 / ORIGINAL ISSUE TEXT
joke2k/faker #2441 · read the original issue
The image provider imports Pillow inside the image operation and converts a missing import into an explicit UnsupportedFeature result ([faker/providers/misc/__init__.py:504-509](https://github.com/joke2k/faker/blob/4eced9f3bbc334a4204f7f46cab64b2ceb8d45aa/faker/providers/misc/__init__.py#L504-L509)).The test suite also explicitly checks this fallback behavior when Pillow is not installed ([tests/providers/test_misc.py:396-400](https://github.com/joke2k/faker/blob/4eced9f3bbc334a4204f7f46cab64b2ceb8d45aa/tests/providers/test_misc.py#L396-L400)). Given this design, should Pillow be formally added to extras_require section? For example: pip install faker[image]. This matches the current lazy-import pattern and helps users avoid runtime surprises.
