Dependencies

python3 or python2 (http://python.org/)
python-requests or python2-requests (http://python-requests.org/)

Installing python-requests

If you have root, Use pip, easy_install or your package manager to install requests

pip install requests
easy_install requests
apt-get install python-requests
pacman -S python-requests

If you do not have root, then install requests locally

curl -L https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/tarball/master | tar xz
cd kennethreitz-requests*
python setup.py install --user
cd ..
rm -rf master kennethreitz-requests*

Notes

It's not possible to have streaming uploads with the requests module and d-h. This means the whole file is loaded into your memory before being uploaded. I might look into other modules if I have the time, but it's not a priority at the moment.
