Hello, 

I am trying to use CURL to upload a file in the 'upload' field using REST 
services. But on using the command, some garbage is getting uploaded, even 
though it shows as type "file" but I could not download the file  (invalid 
request) and the URL becomes too lengthy (looks like the file contents are 
uploaded)

Models

db.define_table('test',  Field('date', 'datetime'),
    Field('user'),
    Field('upload_data','upload'))

Controllers
    
@request.restful()
def api():
    response.view = 'generic.json'


    def GET(tablename, id):
        if not tablename == 'test':
            raise HTTP(400)
        return dict(record = db.test(id))


    def POST(tablename, **fields):
        if not tablename == 'test':
            raise HTTP(400)
        return db.test.validate_and_insert(**fields)


    return locals()

CURL syntax

curl POST -i -F upload_data=@somefile.zip http:
//<servername>:8000/testapp/default/api/test.json


Has anyone used the CURL to upload a file (zip file) with web2py?
