I'm working with an API that allows me to POST a zip file via HTTP and the documentation uses a cURL example. cURL works, but when I try to POST the file via python it fails. I don't want to use cURL (since I'm trying to be transparent and dependency-less), but I can't find anything online that works.
When I use multipart/form-data methods (found here http://code.activestate.com/recipes/146306/), the recipient cannot decipher the attached file. This is about the most difficult thing I've had to do with python and yet it is supposed to be the very basics of HTTP. Example cURL command: curl -v -u username:passwd --data-binary @/home/jdgiotta/test.zip -H "Content-Type: application/zip" https://host/selector Is there a valid way to do this? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
