I have all my blog images locally.
when automatically publishing to the Medium blogs by uploading these images. can you expose an endpoint in the nodejs SDK.

This is the https://github.com/Medium/medium-api-docs#34-images is here. can you add it to the SDK

Update: Using the npm i request library worked:

const filename = "image.jpeg"
const jpegpath = "/path/to/image.jpeg"

request({
    method: "POST",
    url,
    headers: {
      ...headers,
      "Content-Type": "multipart/form-data",
      "Content-Disposition": `form-data; name="image"; filename="${filename}"`
    },
    formData: { image: fs.createReadStream(jpegpath) },
  }, (err, res, body) => {
    console.log("err:", err)
    console.log("res:", res)
    console.log("body:", body)
  })

I was not able to do this using axios and form-data so far, but it worked the first time I tried with curl:

curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer <TOKEN>" -F "image=@/path/to/image.jpeg" https://api.medium.com/v1/images

I hope it helps someone.
