Using rest api i can create a post, get blog category etc. but i cannot upload an image i am referring
https://github.com/WP-API/client-php/blob/master/library/WPAPI/Media.php and

http://wp-api.org/#entities_media-meta_width

and my code is

$data = array('file'=>$filePath,'is_image'=>true);
print_r($data);

$headers = array('Content-Type' => 'application/octet-stream');
$response = $this->api->post(WPAPI::ROUTE_MEDIA, $headers, $data);

they talk about [$data in $response = $this->api->post(WPAPI::ROUTE_MEDIA, $headers, $data);] what are the key value pairs used in $data?

Finally, I fixed it myself:

  1. specify the file path
  2. put necessary headers
  3. send post request

Here is the code:

$filePath = 'URL of image'; //right click your fav img and copy url.
$imageData = @file_get_contents($filePath); //get image content
$headers = array('Content-Type' => 'application/json; charset= UTF-8',
       'Content-Disposition' => 'attachment; filename='.basename($filepath)');
$response = $this->api->post('/wp-json/media', $headers, $imageData);
print_r($response);

Check the WordPress Media Gallery.

Enjoy!
