How to send a file in the body of a POST request in Perl?

Question

Perl

To form a request, I use the HTTP::Request::Common module.
I need the data from the file to be sent not as part of the form, but in the body of the request. This is how CURL is sent when called.
curl 'URL' --data-binary FILE
This doesn't work for me.

my $request = POST $self->{url}, Content   => [ $params->{file} ];

Answer 1

Try Content-Type: to put the appropriate one.

Answer 2

If I understand the question correctly, then:

my $req = POST  $self->{url},
                   Content_Type => 'form-data',
                   Content      => 
                   [
                     $params->{file} => [ /tmp/file.name ], 
                   ];

Answer 3

try this
$ua->post($url, Content_Type => "form-data", Content => ['upload[]' => ['/tmp/file.name']])->res->body;
