I've always trouble uploading files with Curl. Some how the syntax for that command won't stick, so I post it here for future reference.
|
|
|
|
What I want to do is perform a normal `POST`, including a file and some other variables to a remote server. This is it:
|
|
|
|
curl -i -F name=test -F filedata=@localfile.jpg http://example.org/upload
|
|
|
|
You can add as many `-F` as you want. The `-i` option tells curl to show the response headers as well, which I find useful most of the time.
