fields = { 'foo': 'bar', 'fakefile': ('foofile.txt', 'contents of foofile'), 'realfile': ('barfile.txt', open('realfile').read()), 'typedfile': ('bazfile.bin', open('bazfile').read(), 'image/jpeg'), 'nonamefile': 'contents of nonamefile field', } When uploading a file, providing a filename (the first parameter of the tuple) is optional but recommended to best mimic behavior of browsers. Note that if ``headers`` are supplied, the 'Content-Type' header will be overwritten because it depends on the dynamic random boundary string which is used to compose the body of the request. The random boundary string can be explicitly set with the ``multipart_boundary`` parameter. Nr
