I want to document a multipart request like the following:
Content-Length: 477
Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=---BOUNDARY
-----BOUNDARY
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="image[file]"; filename="image.jpg"
Content-Type: image/jpeg
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQEAYABgAAD/2wBDAAgGBgcGBQgHBwcJCQgKDBQNDAsLDBkSEw8UHRofHh0a
HBwgJC4nICIsIxwcKDcpLDAxNDQ0Hyc5PTgyPC4zNDL/2wBDAQkJCQwLDBgNDRgyIRwhMjIyMjIy
MjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjL/wAARCAABAAEDASIA
AhEBAxEB/8QAFQABAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAf/xAAUEAEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA/8QAFAEB
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP/EABQRAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD/2gAMAwEAAhEDEQA/AL+AD//Z
-----BOUNDARY--
A curl
to reproduce this same request would be something like:
curl -F "image[file][email protected]" http://localhost/images
Multipart requests combine one or more sets of data into a single body, separated by boundaries. You typically use these requests for file uploads and for transferring data of several types in a single request (for example, a file along with a JSON object).
Multipart upload is the process of creating an object by breaking the object data into parts and uploading the parts to HCP individually. The result of a multipart upload is a single object that behaves the same as objects for which the data was stored by means of a single PUT object request.
Multipart form data: The ENCTYPE attribute of <form> tag specifies the method of encoding for the form data. It is one of the two ways of encoding the HTML form. It is specifically used when file uploading is required in HTML form. It sends the form data to server in multiple parts because of large size of file.
To create a multipart request with API Blueprint simply create a request with multipart/form-data; boundary=---BOUNDARY
Content-type and use the respective boundary markers in the body asset like so:
# POST /images
+ Request (multipart/form-data; boundary=---BOUNDARY)
-----BOUNDARY
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="image[file]"; filename="image.jpg"
Content-Type: image/jpeg
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
