Hi,
I was wondering what is the best way to post a binary image using
picasa api.
On the web, I have a file upload tag,
<input type="file" name="avatar"></input>
On my python webserver,
// already logon to picasa already, album_url is ok too
thefile = self.request.params['avatar']
if (isinstance(thefile, cgi.FieldStorage)):
file_name = thefile.filename
imagebinary = thefile.value
gd_client = gdata.photos.service.PhotosService()
photo = gd_client.InsertPhotoSimple(album_url, 'New Photo',
'Uploaded using the API', imagebinary, content_type='image/
jpeg')
When the user uploads the image, i get the binary image and try to use
the InsertPhotoSimple(), but i get an error below
TypeError: _getfullpathname() argument 1 must be (buffer overflow),
not str
Could I use the InsertPhotoSimple to upload a binary image? If so,
what did i do wrong?
If not, what is the best way to upload the binary image?
Thanks
John
