Hello everybody! I want to implement an extension that offers a different way for uploading files to a MediaWiki file repo. In my extensions code I receive file data in form of a PHP 'resource' (not through $_FILE or similar). I want to add this file data to the (local) file repo, so that it shows up in the "File" namespace. Unfortunately all UploadBase derived classes are bound to WebRequestUpload and I would have to construct such an object, which is pretty difficult. As an alternative I could use the Upload API [1]. But I don't know how to mimic the "multipart/form-data" content type when calling the API internally [2]. This already was part of a request on the talk page of the Upload API [3]. So is there any recommended way to upload a file using PHP (in extension context) without having a WebRequestUpload ($_FILES)?
