streaming upload

[alekibango]

if i read the code correctly,
it is not possible to make PUT request and stream data into it.

But that would be really nice to have.
Streaming by chunks of data or from file-like object is really a must for uploading large files...

You are correct and this is something that needs to be addressed quite quickly. I'll handle it this weekend.

It's a surprisingly rare use case in terms of programmatic use! I have been long fingering this for a while. I'll make it a priority for you.

Thanks!

You would be surprized how many libraries ignore such corner cases.

Uploading large files using PUT (which is the only sane method) is painfull or impossible also on server side. They usually think large file is around 100MB. Most pythonic web servers never try uploading file having size over 2 GB.

But i am uploading/accepting at least tens of TB daily.... :) it really makes a difference to me.

Is there any update on this? I have a similar use-case.
