问题:

I am new to django. Can anybody help me... How can I upload a file using the Rest Framework API ?

I have tried following this page:

http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/parsers/#fileuploadparser

回答1:

File uploading in Django REST framework is the same with uploading files in multipart/form in django.

To test it you can use curl:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type:multipart/form-data" -u {username}:{password} \
-F "{field_name}=@{filename};type=image/jpeg" http://{your api endpoint}

Other fields are just like normal form fields in Django.

Zhe answer is pretty well. Besides, you can add some parameters in order to see the response. Take this one for example:

curl -X PATCH --dump-header - -H "Content-Type:multipart/form-data" -u jorge:123456 -F "image=@/home/oscar/Pictures/dgnest/_MG_6445.JPG;type=image/jpeg" http://localhost:8000/api/project/3/
