haricot has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello , i want/need to convert this code(in php) to perl's code but i am very stunk on the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS part . i'm not able to convert this to perl .. could somebody helps me ?

  $curl = curl_init($apiUrl);

        $curlPostData = array(
                        "force_post" => urlencode("true"),
                        "auth_hash" => $authHash,
                        "urlencoded_filename" => urlencode($fileName),
                        "auth_token" => $authToken,
                        "xhr_uploader" => urlencode("true"),
                        'userfile_0"; filename="fake-name"' => $fileDa
+ta

   );

        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array("Content-Type: mu
+ltipart/form-data"));
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $pydioRestUser . ":" . $py
+dioRestPw);
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, true);
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $curlPostData);

Hi haricot, Please use `<code></code>` tags for your code as described in Writeup Formatting Tips. For your question, see HTTP::Tiny ( `post_form()` ) or perhaps Net::CURL (I have not used the latter but it comes recommended by the highest papal authorities). Hope this helps! The way forward always starts with a minimal test.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

It appears that you are new to PerlMonks, but I (and we) have no idea how comfortable you are with reading and writing Perl code. Based on your question, we can only guess at what it is that you are trying to do. Rather than convert a php solution to what you are trying to do, please explain to us what it is that you are trying to do, and you will probably see close to half a dozen responses on how to accomplish your task. By the way, I tried the following Google search: perl "curl_exec" - Google Search. I was surprised at the number of questions in the search results that were similar to yours. This one was at the top of the list (for me): Code from PHP to Perl.	[reply]
