python upload string with https post
This question already has an answer here:
When using the files parameter, requests creates the headers and body required to post files.
If you don't want your request formated like that you can use the data parameter.
url = 'http://httpbin.org/anything'
headers = {'content-type': 'application/octet-stream'}
files = {'file': 'ID,Namen1,test'}
r = requests.post(url, data=files, headers=headers, auth=('user', 'password'))
print(r.request.body)
file=ID%2CName%0A1%2Ctest
Note that when passing a dictionary to data it gets url-encoded. If you want to submit your data without any encoding you can use a string.
url = 'http://httpbin.org/anything'
headers = {'content-type': 'application/octet-stream'}
files = 'ID,Namen1,test'
r = requests.post(url, data=files, headers=headers, auth=('user', 'password'))
print(r.request.body)
ID,Name
1,test
