I'm trying to replicate the following command line curl:
curl -F file=@myfile.csv 'https://myserver/api/import/data_save.html'
Does anyone have an example in either www::curl or lwp perhaps? I have been trying all day and it's not even worth me posting my tries at this point, it would only confuse things. Thank you!!!
I think you are asking how to submit a form with a file field named file
populated with the contents of file myfile.csv
.
use LWP::UserAgent qw( );
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();
my $response = $ua->post('https://myserver/api/import/data_save.html',
Content_Type => 'form-data',
Content => [
file => [ 'myfile.csv' ],
],
);
die($response->status_line)
if !$response->is_success;
The arguments to $ua->post
are documented in HTTP::Request::Common.
