post multiple images to fastapi using requests python

i want to use python requests library to send multiple images to fastapi ?

API

from fastapi import FastAPI, UploadFile, File
from typing import List
app = FastAPI()

@app.post("/")
def index(file: List[UploadFile] = File(...)):
    list_image = []
    for i in file:
        list_image.append(i.filename)
    return {"list_image": list_image}

Request

Currently, I can only request one image and I want to be able to request multiple images

import requests
import cv2

frame = cv2.imread("../image/3.png")
imencoded = cv2.imencode(".jpg", frame)[1]
file = {'file': ('image.jpg', imencoded.tostring(),
                    'image/jpeg', {'Expires': '0'})}

response = requests.post(
    "http://127.0.0.1:8000/", files=file)

>Solution :

Use as below:

import requests

url = 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/'
files = [('file', open('images/1.png', 'rb')), ('file', open('images/2.png', 'rb'))]
resp = requests.post(url=url, files=files) 

or, you could also use:

import requests
import glob

path = glob.glob("images/*", recursive=True) # images' path
files = []
for img in path:
    files.append(('file', open(img, 'rb')))
    
url = 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/'
resp = requests.post(url=url, files=files)
