For some webserver testing, I use curl for file upload like this:

$ curl --silent --digest --user user:pass --upload-file filename http://server/dir/

Now I tried to archive the same function but with usage of httpie. Tried something like:

$ http --auth-type digest --auth user:pass PUT http://server/dir/

but cannot find a parameter to pass a filename for upload. Trying e.g. this

$ http --auth-type digest --auth user:pass PUT http://server/dir/ A=B

has the consequence that the content "A": "B" will be passed as http request body,
but I want to pass the raw content of a (maybe binary) file as request body instead (like possible with curl).

Might there be a way to do this also using httpie?

(I'd tested with httpie 0.9.2 on Kubuntu 16.04 host.)

Ok, digging deeper into httpie documentation, finding out that there are 2 ways to pass raw body data.

Either by piping or input redirection. httpie reads the body data from stdin:

$ cat filename | http --auth-type digest --auth user:pass PUT http://server/dir/filename

or

$ http --auth-type digest --auth user:pass PUT http://server/dir/filename <filename

or using that @ parameter like this:

$ http --auth-type digest --auth user:pass PUT http://server/dir/filename @filename
