Awaiting feedback API (?bug)

[Gatses]

Hello there!

I have some problems with API.
When I try to use it I always geting exception
Invalid base64 string.
with error code 120
I checked code and found this..
Well, i think function !G\timing_sage_compare just comparing 1st and 2nd arguments.. (I didn't see this function)
And i just tried to test this situation:

$a = 'aaaaa';
$a1 = base64_decode($a);
$a2 = base64_encode($a1);
print($a);
print('<br/>');
print($a1);
print('<br/>');
print($a2);

And I've got this:

aaaaa
i¦љ
aaaa

I think 'aaaaa' not equival 'aaaa'..
Am i right? Is it bug? Maybe it caused file encoding problems? At my PC I've got file:

user@pc:~$ file -bi /home/user/chevereto/app/routes/route.api.php
text/x-php; charset=us-ascii

Sorry for my English once again

I've just tested the API in my localhost and it worked. Note that you can use a _FILE multipart or a base64 image encoded string.

To test the API you can so something like this (api.html in the root Chevereto folder):

<form method="post" action="/api/1/upload/?key=API_KEY_HERE">
    <textarea name="source"></textarea>
    <input type="submit"></submit>
</form>

then get a image base64 string here: http://www.base64-image.de/step-1.php

And it should work. Note that if you use the base64 string as _GET request you will most likely get issues because when you send a get request the data is urlencoded and that affects the base64 string so you should always use _POST when dealing with base64 strings.

I tried to use GET request, not POST in browser input.
There was request like:

http://example.com/api/1/upload?key=1234&source=http://example.com/image.jpg​

GET only works for remote upload. For local upload you must use POST.

And I trying to use remote upload...

API hasn't the bug mentioned. This problem is related to you using the endpoint rather than an error in the endpoint.

Ok.. So, resolved..
