Uploading a file with google photos API

Hi, I am trying to upload image, video via photoslibrary v1 API. But I am not getting how to upload? There are no demos and no clear documentation upon how to do it?

from googleapiclient.discovery import build
service = build('photoslibrary', 'v1', credentials=credentials)

It does not have API with for MediaFileUpload https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/python/guide/media_upload

I do using requests.

import requests
headers = {
    'Content-Type': "application/octet-stream",
    'X-Goog-Upload-File-Name': "line-586.jpg",
    'X-Goog-Upload-Protocol': "raw",
    'Authorization': "Bearer " + creds.access_token,
    }
data = open('image.jpg', 'rb').read()
response = requests.post('https://photoslibrary.googleapis.com/v1/uploads', headers=headers, data=data)
image_token = response.text

Hello! The photos API is maintained separately. Here is their support page. The Photos API has Java and PHP client libraries, but not one for Python. You can interact with the Photos REST API via requests in Python.

If a Python client library is of interest, it may be worth putting in a feature request. There is more information on how to do that on the support page.
