Upload image to Imgur and retrieve the link/embed bbcode

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

Hi,

How do I upload image to Imgur in an album (ex foo/foo.jpg) and retrieve the link/embed bbcode ?

Image::Imgur documentation is very short, doesn't look like it can do that

Imgur::API documentation is very large but no samples/tests ... SYNOPSIS shows "content" method which isnt documented :/

Thanks

To use Imgur::API, you will have to read the imgur API documentation. The module does not include that documentation. The `->content` method is documented in Imgur::API::Endpoint::Image, unsurprisingly.	[reply] [d/l]

Whoops, indeed, sorry for misleading you! The parameter documented is named `image` and should be set to the base64-encoded image data. I think with these parts you should have enough to create an example image and upload it. As the synopsis also contains syntax errors, maybe it isn't really tested.	[reply] [d/l]

Show the code you've tried, and that doesn't work. I know you've showed some links to documentation, but that doesn't show your specific case not working.	[reply]
