If you know how to send a file to FastAPI server and access it in /predict endpoint for prediction using my models please help me out.
I have deployed the model using /predict endpoint and done uvicorn main:app and it's deployed but the only thing is input that is a document is in my local pc so how can I sent it to FastAPI?
I have went through the documentation of FastAPI and I have found this example code there, but the challenge is that this code creates an UI for uploading file which is not what I"m looking for.
from typing import Optional
from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi import FastAPI, File, UploadFile
from pydantic import BaseModel
from typing import List
from fastapi.responses import HTMLResponse
app = FastAPI()
class User(BaseModel):
user_name: dict
@app.post("/files/")
async def create_files(files: List[bytes] = File(...)):
return {"file_sizes": [len(file) for file in files]}
@app.post("/uploadfiles/")
async def create_upload_files(files: List[UploadFile] = File(...)):
return {"filenames": [file.filename for file in files]}
@app.get("/")
async def main():
content = """
<body>
<form action="/files/" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post">
<input name="files" type="file" multiple>
<input type="submit">
</form>
</body>
"""
return HTMLResponse(content=content)

FASTAPI CODE
This will be your endpoint.
from fastapi import FastAPI, UploadFile, File
app = FastAPI()
@app.post("/file")
async def upload_file(file: UploadFile = File(...)):
# Do here your stuff with the file
return {"filename": file.filename}
JAVASCRIPT CODE
This is your javascript code (assuming you are using javascript for uploading the file)
form = new FormData();
form.append("file", myFile);
let response = await fetch('/file', {
method: 'POST',
body: form
});
let result = await response.json();
EDIT: Python file upload
I'm using httpx, but technically it should be fully compatible with requests.
import httpx
# Create a dict with a key that has the same name as your file parameter and the file in binary form (the "b" in "rb")
f = {'file': open('foo.png', 'rb')}
r = httpx.post("your_url/file", files=f)
You can see more configurations/examples on the official documentation of httpx at https://www.python-httpx.org/quickstart/#sending-multipart-file-uploads.
Again, I did not test the code, since I'm tight with time at the moment.
END OF EDIT
Be aware that the parameter name of the file, MUST match the one used for sending the file.
In case, there is also another answer from me on how to test it with POSTMAN. See How to send file to fastapi endpoint using postman
NOTE
I did not test the code as I don't have time right now. In case, there is also a link with a previous answer of mine that works (unless FASTAPI introduced breaking changes).
