( http://pycurl.sourceforge.net/ )
Above code will send the following code to webserver server :
(provided socket connected to imgur.com at port 80 )
POST /api/upload.xml HTTP/1.1
Host: imgur.com
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0
Content-Length: 12345 [Calculate the total string length]
Content-Type: multipart/form-data boundary=182832622229331 [Whatever
you like]
-----------------------------182832622229331
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="key"
YOUR_API_KEY
-----------------------------182832622229331
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="image"; filename="file.png"
Content-Type: text/html
[YOUR FILE CONTENT , You can change the content-type to base64 to
upload png binary data]
-----------------------------182832622229331--
OR this one :
POST /api/upload.xml HTTP/1.1
Host: imgur.com
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0
Content-Length: 12345 [Calculate the total string length]
Content-Type: multipart/form-data boundary=182832622229331 [Whatever
you like but be sure to change the following]
-----------------------------182832622229331
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="key"
YOUR_API_KEY
-----------------------------182832622229331
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="image"
http://example.com/example.jpg
-----------------------------182832622229331--
OR you can try "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" also.
