File upload from client application (non-form based upload)
Hi I'm trying to write a Python script to receive and save a file on a web server that has been POST'ed from a client application. In essence, this is similar to handling a file upload from an HTML form. However, I can't use: form = cgi.FieldStorage() fileitem = form['file'] since the file is not coming from a form, and hence I don't have a form field called 'file'. I have working server-side code in PHP to do this (error handling removed): $file = ./test.jpg; $file_handle = fopen($file,w); $mydata = file_get_contents(php://input); fwrite($file_handle, $mydata); fclose($file_handle); What I need is a Python equivalent of the the above PHP script. The content-type in the POST header is currently set to application/octet-stream which works fine with the php code above. Any help, advise, pointers, sample code would be hugely welcome, Many thanks in advance, Stuart -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
