I need to convert the following CURL command into an http request in Python:
curl -X POST https://some/url
-H 'api-key: {api_key}'
-H 'Content-Type: application/json'
-H 'Accept: application/json'
-d '{ "data": { "dirname": "{dirname}", "basename": "{filename}", "contentType": "application/octet-stream" } }'
I initially successfully implemented the request using Python's requests library.
import requests
url = 'https://some/url'
api_key = ...
dirname = ...
filename = ...
headers = {
'api-key': f'{api_key}',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Accept': 'application/json',
}
payload = json.dumps({
'data': {
'dirname': f'{dirname}',
'basename': f'{filename}',
'contentType': 'application/octet-stream'
}
})
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=payload)
The customer later asked not to use pip to install the requests library. For this I am trying to use the urllib3 library as follows:
import urllib3
url = 'https://some/url'
api_key = ...
dirname = ...
filename = ...
headers = {
'api-key': f'{api_key}',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Accept': 'application/json',
}
payload = json.dumps({
'data': {
'dirname': f'{dirname}',
'basename': f'{filename}',
'contentType': 'application/octet-stream'
}
})
http = urllib3.PoolManager()
response = http.request('POST', url, headers=headers, body=payload)
The problem is that now the request returns me an error 400 and I don't understand why.
Try calling .encode('utf-8')
on payload
before passing as a parameter.
Alternatively, try to pass payload as fields
without manually converting it to JSON:
payload = {
'data': {
'dirname': f'{dirname}',
'basename': f'{filename}',
'contentType': 'application/octet-stream'
}
}
http = urllib3.PoolManager()
response = http.request('POST', url, headers=headers, fields=payload)
