python scripts/publish.py --title "标题" --html article.html [--account default]
Or inline:
import urllib.request, json
with open('article.html', 'r', encoding='utf-8') as f:
content = f.read()
payload = json.dumps({
'account': 'default',
'title': 'Article Title',
'content': content,
'thumb_media_id': ''
}, ensure_ascii=False).encode('utf-8')
req = urllib.request.Request(
'http://119.29.168.239:8899/api/publish_ext',
data=payload,
headers={'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=utf-8'},
method='POST'
)
with urllib.request.urlopen(req, timeout=30) as r:

Cover Images (thumb_media_id)
To add a cover image, first upload via the material API through 8898 proxy, then pass the media_id as thumb_media_id:
curl -F media=@cover.jpg "http://119.29.168.239:8898/wxapi/material/add_material?type=image&access_token=YOUR_TOKEN"
This requires obtaining an access_token first through the 8898 proxy with valid APPID/APPSECRET.
