My format is correct as per normal Python requests module rule, but still I am not able to upload a file to AEM using Python.
How do we convert the following
curl -u admin:admin -F file=@"C:\sample\samplepackage.zip" -F name="samplepackage" -F force=true -F install=false http://localhost:4502/crx/packmgr/service.jsp
to its Python equivalent??
This is what I used and it does not upload but gives me a 200 response code and says format is wrong
**************************************************************************************************************
#!/path-to-python-2.7.5/bin/python
import os
import requests
api_url = 'http://host:port/crx/packmgr/service.jsp'
os.chdir("/my/folder"); #change directory to where file.zip is located, and this I tested with subprocess listing and path is right
# Set up a session
session = requests.Session()
filehandle=open("file.zip",'rb')
payload = {}
payload['file'] = ('file.zip',filehandle)
payload['force'] = 'true'
payload['install'] = 'false'
payload['name'] = 'zipfile'
print payload
r = session.post(api_url, data=payload, files=payload, auth=('admin', '*******'))
print r.text
**************************************************************************************************************
What I get as output is the following which makes me think if something is missing in the requests module that AEM wants???

<crx version="1.6.2" user="admin" workspace="crx.default">
