POST file with metadata

Hi,

Your API docs seem to indicate that I can attach metadata to files that I upload to DSP. I just cannot figure out how to do that. In POST /files/{file_path} it says the schema for the body is:

{
  "name": "string",
  "path": "string",
  "content_type": "string",
  "metadata": [
    "string"
  ]
}

But where does the file content go in this case? On the other hand, I can post the file contents directly, but how do I attach metadata then?

As an example often explains things best, could you give me a plain but complete HTTP request (as opposed to a PHP/JavaScript/whatever API call) that would do the following:

• uploads file foo.txt
• with content type text/plain
• and content "Foo Bar Baz"
• as well as metadata item "bar=baz"

Thanks.
