Has anyone been able to successfully upload a file to any wiki by URL, *through the API*?
I have been able to get to the point where I get a sessionkey, and then using "httpstatus" see that the file has been loaded, but it never actually appears on the wiki (test.wikipedia.org, in this case).

There was a slight problem with I fixed in r58337 and just got synced. I tested it and it works now. For your information, I used the following query: site.api(token = img.get_token('edit'), action = 'upload', url = 'http://www.mediawiki.org/images/wikimedia-button.png', filename = 'Wikimedia-button.png') using mwclient.

Thanks - it works now in my testing, too.
