How to Mock Content-Disposition and Extract Filename in Python
Parse and mock Content-Disposition headers in Python to extract filenames, handling both plain and RFC 5987 encoded values.
import os
from pathlib import Path
import re
from unittest.mock import patch
def get_filename_from_content_disposition(header_value):
"""
Extract filename from a Content-Disposition header value.
Supports both filename and filename* parameters (RFC 5987).
"""
if not header_value:

Parse multipart/form-data uploads using the Python standard library's cgi module to extract both regular fields and file uploads.
import cgi
from io import BytesIO
def parse_multipart_form(headers, body_bytes):
content_type = headers.get("Content-Type", "")
content_length = int(headers.get("Content-Length", len(body_bytes)))
# Create a file-like object from bytes for cgi.FieldStorage
body_file = BytesIO(body_bytes)
