httpie has super sweet syntax for posting files via stdin:

https 0x0.st < file.txt

But it causes a 400 response from 0x0:

$ https 0x0.st < test.txt
HTTP/1.1 400 BAD REQUEST
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Length: 19
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2022 11:38:19 GMT
Server: nginx

Segmentation fault

I don't know much about HTTP spec so I'm unsure if this is an issue with how httpie sends files in this way or if an edge case has been missed on the server side.

That syntax only works for text/json data instead of multipart/form data. It won't work with this project.

However, the following bash script will do exactly what you want.

#!/bin/bash
curl -F "file=@-" "https://${1:-0x0.st}"

You could add this script to your path and use it instead of httpie.
