Wordpress Rest Api V2 ,How to add a new Media

Question

I'm having some problems with the new WordPress REST Api. I can't upload any image using the below example. I'm authenticated by Oauth 2, I can create posts, categories, everything is all right.

My code is:

$site = Sites::findOrFail($id);
        $token=$this->token($site->url,$site->clientId,$site->clientSecret);
        $token=$token->getToken();
        $site_url = $site->url."/wp-json/wp/v2/media?access_token=".$token;


            $options  = array (
              'http' => 
              array (
                'ignore_errors' => true,
                'method' => 'POST',
                'header' => 
                array (
                  1 => 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
                  2 =>'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="codeispoetry-rgb.png"',
                ),
                'content' => 
                 http_build_query(  array (
                    'media_urls' => 'https://s.w.org/about/images/logos/codeispoetry-rgb.png',
                  )),
              ),
            );

            $context  = stream_context_create( $options );
            $response = file_get_contents(
                $site_url,
                false,
                $context
            );
            $response = json_decode( $response );
            echo "<pre>";
            print_r($response);
            echo "</pre>";

The post method is ok without any error, the response is like this:

stdClass Object

                        [href] => wordpres.domain/wp-json/wp/v2/users/1
                    )

            )

        [replies] => Array
            (
                [0] => stdClass Object
                    (
                        [embeddable] => 1
                        [href] => wordpres.domain/wp-json/wp/v2/comments?post=1842
                    )

            )

    )

)

But in the WordPress media: There is uploaded a black image with the name added into: Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="codeispoetry-rgb.png" like this : http://prntscr.com/b5juch

Can someone help with a tested php example of posting media in v2 REST API? Thanks everyone.

hello Everyone i solved this :

                 $name =$file->getClientOriginalName();
                $thumbnailUrl=url('/').$assetPath . '/' .$name;

                //start api image upload

                   $site_url = $site->url."/wp-json/wp/v2/media?access_token=".$token;
                    // die();
                    $img=file_get_contents($thumbnailUrl);
                    $ch = curl_init();
                    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,            $site_url );
                    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1 );
                    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST,           1 );
                    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,     $img); 
                    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,     array('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'.$name.'"')); 

                    $result=curl_exec ($ch);

Thanks everyone
