Collections images by API

[ericm69 2]

Dear all,

I've created collections with the API and they are displayed without any images.

I tried several solution to add them with the API without any succes, i still have 400 error like this :

[DEBUG] tmp_path = /tmp/tmp9lyc1b03.jpg [DEBUG] taille du fichier = 186243 bytes

[ERREUR] Upload Primary échoué pour 20439: 400 Client Error: Bad Request for url: http://localhost:8096/Items/20439/Images/Primary?api_key=axxxxxxxxxxxxxxa [

If you know the solution to add 'Primary', 'Backdrop', and 'Logo' images by this way (a new scan of the collections do not add any images) ?

Many thanks !

More details of the request (return error 400):

    url = f"{emby_url}/Items/{collection_id}/Images/{image_type}?api_key={api_key}"
    
    try:
        with open(local_file, "rb") as f:
            files = {"file": (os.path.basename(local_file), f, "image/jpeg")}
            resp = requests.post(url, files=files)
            resp.raise_for_status()

Dear, thanks for your answser, 

• I've tested on multipart/form-data (-F), answer 400.

• I've tested on  --data-binary avec Content-Type: image/jpeg, même résultat.

• Sample with curl :

curl -v \ -H "Content-Type: image/jpeg" \ --data-binary @/tmp/test.jpg \ "http://localhost:8096/Items/20439/Images/Primary?api_key=XXXXX" 

et Emby answer :

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request Unable to determine image file extension from mime type multipart/form-data

or

Requested value 'jpg' was not found.

thanks a lot for your help,

regards.

HI, did you try comparing to what the web app is sending? You can use the browser debugger to monitor that.

Hi, web app doesn't work for me (?), so i can't test with it.

Could you please confirm if what is the right curl request to add images on a collection?

Many thanks,

Regards.

The soluce  : A bit strange, convert to 64b image but content type jpg.

with open("/tmp/thumb.jpg", "rb") as f:
    img_data = f.read()

img_b64 = base64.b64encode(img_data)

url = f"{server_url}Items/{item_id}/Images/Thumb?api_key={api_key}"
headers = {"Content-Type": "image/jpeg", "X-Emby-Token": api_key}

resp = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=img_b64)
print(resp.status_code, resp.text)

Hi, yes it's old. We probably need a new upload api at this point. Thanks.
