I Use python requests to upload a file with PUT method.
The remote API Accept any request only if the body contains an attribute
Content-Type:i mage/png not as Request Header
When i use python requests , the request rejected because missing attribute
I tried to use a proxy and after adding the missing attribute , it was accepted
See the highlighted text
but i can not programmatically add it , How can i do it?
And this is my code:
files = {'location[logo]': open(fileinput,'rb')}
ses = requests.session()
res = ses.put(url=u,files=files,headers=myheaders,proxies=proxdic)
As per the [docs][1, you need to add two more arguments to the tuple, filename and the content type:
# filed name filename file object content=type
files = {'location[logo]': ("name.png", open(fileinput),'image/png')}
You can see a sample an example below:
In [1]: import requests
In [2]: files = {'location[logo]': ("foo.png", open("/home/foo.png"),'image/png')}
In [3]:
In [3]: ses = requests.session()
In [4]: res = ses.put("http://httpbin.org/put",files=files)
In [5]: print(res.request.body[:200])

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="location[logo]"; filename="foo.png"
Content-Type: image/png

For future reference, this comment in a old related issue explains all variations:
# 1-tuple (not a tuple at all)
{fieldname: file_object}
# 2-tuple
{fieldname: (filename, file_object)}
# 3-tuple
{fieldname: (filename, file_object, content_type)}
# 4-tuple
{fieldname: (filename, file_object, content_type, headers)}
