I understand how to make an http request using basic authentication with Ruby\'s rest-client

Answer 1

How about using a RestClient::Payload with RestClient::Request... For an example:

request = RestClient::Request.new(
          :method => :post,
          :url => '/data',
          :user => @sid,
          :password => @token,
          :payload => {
            :multipart => true,
            :file => File.new("/path/to/image.jpg", 'rb')
          })      
response = request.execute
