How can I use wget to send POST data?

I want to make following POST request to my server using wget:

email=&file1=@FILE_HERE&file2=@FILE_HERE 

In the above request, there are three POST parameters called email , file1 and file2 where email contains email of user and file1 , file2 contain a file.

How can I send it using wget? I don't want to use curl.

Use the --post-data parameter.

So your command will end with:

--post-data "email=&file1=@FILE_HERE&file2=@FILE_HERE" 

Another method is to put your data in a file. For example, if you saved a file called params.txt as:

email= file1=@FILE_HERE file2=@FILE_HERE 

You could use --post-file params.txt
