how to upload media-image or featured-image in wordpress using rest api.
I've created new post using WordPress REST API, and now I am uploading Image to my Wordpress Site using REST API but i am unable to achieve it due to error "No data Supplied" kindly please Check Screenshot
which is the best way to create new post in WordPress with Featured Image, right now in my mind
you almost right, just lack media(image) raw binary data.
for python, using code:
import requests
toUploadImagePath = "/xxx/xxx.jpg"
mediaImageBytes = open(toUploadImagePath, 'rb').read()
# b'\xff\xd8\xff\xe0\x00\x10JFIF\x00\x01\x01\.....'
uploadImageFilename = "661b943654f54bd4b2711264eb275e1b.jpg"
curHeaders = {
"Authorization": "Bearer xxx.yyy.zzz-xxx-yyy-zzz",
"Content-Type": "image/jpeg",
"Accept": "application/json",
'Content-Disposition': "attachment; filename=%s" % uploadImageFilename,
}
resp = requests.post(
"https://www.crifan.com/wp-json/wp/v2/media",
headers=curHeaders,
data=mediaBytes,
)
full code can refer my lib: crifanWordpress.py

Using the REST API to upload a file to WordPress is quite simple. All you need is to send the file in a POST-Request to the wp/v2/media route.
UPDATED added data response true
$file = file_get_contents( 'test.jpg' );
$url = 'http://example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/media/';
$ch = curl_init();
$username = 'admin';
$password = 'password';
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1 );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $file );
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, [
'Content-Disposition: form-data; filename="example.jpg"',
'Authorization: Basic ' . base64_encode( $username . ':' . $password ),
] );
$result = curl_exec( $ch );
curl_close( $ch );
print_r( json_decode( $result ) );

I landed here looking for answers too. But I finally mixed and matched PHP and Nodejs. @user1805543's answer was my php code (thanks man). I returned the id from $result. (remember to json_decode($result, true)) All that was left to do was to make a get request to that where that php was running - localhost:YOUR_PORT
I used axios in my case, so inside the callback I received the id, and I proceeded to make post request for new blog post, supplying the id as featured_media
