Python script send image to PHP

Question

Good day. Can somebody help me. My task is to create an python script (client side) that send image to php (server side).

NOTE: The python script is run in different raspberry pi, and the php server only receive the image via internet.

Achievement: I can now send a text data from my client to server.

Problem: My big problem is how can I send the image?

Any comments and suggestion is very appreciated. Thank You.

My Python Script:

import urllib2
from urllib import urlencode 

# 192.168.5.149 is the ip address of server
url = "http://192.168.5.149/server/server.php"
data = {'test':'OK'}

encoded_data = urlencode(data)

website = urllib2.urlopen(url, encoded_data)
print website.read()

My PHP script:

<?php
echo $_POST['test'];
?>

When I run the python script, I got "ok" as send by PHP server. That means, the connection is successful.

EDITED

Python client:

import requests
url = 'http://messi-fan.org/post'
files = {'file': open('image.png', 'rb')}
r = requests.post(url, files=files)

PHP server:

<?php
$file_path = "C:\\xampp\htdocs\server\php\\";

$file_path = $file_path.basename( $_FILES['file']['name']);
?>

Solution

You can use requests module for this. it is very easy to use

import requests
url = 'http://messi-fan.org/post'
files = {'file': open('image.png', 'rb')}
r = requests.post(url, files=files)

and in PHP

<?php
print_r($_FILES);
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],$_FILES["file"]["name"]);
