Hi all,
I'm trying to use the recently introduced WriteAPI to create topics and concurrently upload a file.
I'm doing it via Python and I've already succeeded in create a simple topic without a file using something lilke
payload = {
"cid": cid,
"title": title,
"content": message
}
headers = {
'Authorization': 'Bearer '+nodebbToken,
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=json.dumps(payload))
but when it's about files using
payload = {
"cid": backstage_cid,
"title": backstage_title,
"content": backstage_message
}
headers = {
'Authorization': 'Bearer '+nodebbToken,
'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
}
verifySSL = False
print (payload)
if (useFile):
with open(backstage_file, 'rb') as f:
response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload, verify=verifySSL, files={backstage_file: f})
it returns
Error: Required parameters were missing from this API call: cid, title, content cause passing the parameters in a plain dictionary rather than a JSON object seems not doable.
The switch from JSON to dictionary is needed otherwise I wouldn't have been able to pass a file together with such header
headers = {
'Authorization': 'Bearer '+nodebbToken,
'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
}
Has anybody valuable suggestions here?
Thanks in advance, Riccardo
