Curl with json and file-CodePudding

I want to send a file along with json data to my end point, something like this:

curl --location --request POST 'abc.com/upload'
--header 'Authorization: Bearer '
--header 'Content-Type: application/json'
--data-raw '{
"user": {"email":"[email protected]"},
"options": {"process":"order_lines","selection":"price","tolerance":"loose","target":"transport_orders"},
"import-file": "/path/to/file.csv"
}'

I want to achieve something like this, how can I do this?

CodePudding user response：

The problem may be as is, your curl is not an "application/json" request.

It arrives to "abc.com" as Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

I ran your request to my curl test site and this is what it returned:

Content-Length: 177
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Accept: */*

BODY=
{ "user": {"email":"[email protected]"}, "options": {"process":"order_lines","selection":"price","tolerance":"loose","target":"transport_orders"}, "import-file": "/path/to/file.csv" }
BODY urlencoded
{ "user": {"email":"[email protected]"}, "options": {"process":"order_lines","selection":"price","tolerance":"loose","target":"transport_orders"}, "import-file": "/path/to/file.csv" }

$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])

My question to you is can you have your "end point" retrieve the contents of /path/to/file_csv or do you have a necessity to have the client retrieve the csv and pass it to the "end point"?

CodePudding user response：

You would have to pass the <path-to-json-file> after -d option, e.g.:

curl --location --request POST 'abc.com/upload'
--header 'Authorization: Bearer '
--header 'Content-Type: application/json'
-d @<path-to-json-file>
