Python API calls multipart/form-data -

i trying convert curl call --form data python

curl -h "x-api-token:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" -x post \     --form upload=@2015-07-02-fiesta-ek-malware-payload.exe \     --form "owner=username" https://192.168.1.198/rapi/samples/basic 

what have tried:

url = 'https://%s/rapi/samples/basic' % hostname q = request(url) q.add_header('x-api-token', 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx') q.add_header('content-type', 'multipart/form-data; upload=@%s' % filename) q.add_header('content-type', 'multipart/form-data; owner=username') = urlopen(q).read() 

the return default listing of submitted samples. sure not getting header data.

i use example of passing multiple form data headers.

thanks.

a sample call using unirest

import unirest  # consume async post request def consumepostrequestsync():  params = {'test1':'param1','test2':'param2'}   # need pass dummy variable open method  # unirest not provide variable shift between  # application-x-www-form-urlencoded ,  # multipart/form-data  params['dummy'] = open('dummy.txt', 'r')  url = 'http://httpbin.org/post'  headers = {"accept": "application/json"}  # call service headers , params  response = unirest.post(url, headers = headers,params = params)  print "code:"+ str(response.code)  print "******************"  print "headers:"+ str(response.headers)  print "******************"  print "body:"+ str(response.body)  print "******************"  print "raw_body:"+ str(response.raw_body)  # post sync request multipart/form-data consumepostrequestsync()
