$success = 0;

$http = chilkat::CkHttp->new();

$localFilePath = "C:/example/zips/data.zip";
$url = "https://example.com/api/v1/sites/123/deploys";

# Send a POST with the contents of the file in the binary HTTP request body.
$resp = chilkat::CkHttpResponse->new();
$success = $http->HttpFile("POST",$url,$localFilePath,"application/zip",$resp);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $http->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

print "Response Status Code: " . $resp->get_StatusCode() . "\r\n";
print "Response body:" . "\r\n";
