Posted by I’m new to PHP. How I can use blob in CodeIgniter? What is the best option for sending an image from the server to a client (RESTful) using codeigniter? I have tried the following:
$newPerson = new Person();
$newPerson->id = 1;
$newPerson->firstName = "Qutfullo";
$newPerson->lastName = "Ochilov";
$image=new Imagick();
$image->setImage("my.jpg");
$newPerson->image=$image->getImageBlob();
$this->response($newPerson);
But I get an exception:
Fatal error: Class ‘Imagick’ not found.
ou would use it the same way as you would without CodeIgniter. Are you working with some code that doesn’t work? It would be helpful to see that code, otherwise this question is just far too broad for this site. – MonkeyZeus
this is error not exception? try to include Class ‘Imagick’ might be missing in php libraray – Abhishek

Hope below snippet can give you the idea that you are missing library —
Try below code if on ubuntu —
php -m | grep imagick.
If the result is empty then issue below commands from terminal
sudo apt-get remove --purge php5-imagick && sudo apt-get install php5-imagick
if on window sserver follow below link instructions that might be useful

The error is because of your server have no Image Magic Software suite. First you install it in your server.
For install Image Magic in Unix/Linux
Download ImageMagick.tar.gz from www.imagemagick.org
Unpack the distribution with this command:
tar xvzf ImageMagick.tar.gz
Next configure and compile ImageMagick:
cd ImageMagick-6.9.3
./configure
make
To install, type
sudo make install
You may need to configure the dynamic linker run-time bindings:
sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib
Install from Windows Source
Download ImageMagick-windows.zip from www.imagemagick.org
Unzip and Install
unzip ImageMagick-windows.zip
Please refer this link for installation.
