Error when uploading photo using UploadFile

[devmitch]

Minimal reproducible example on this repo.

When posting a photo to a route with an UploadFile parameter, an exception is thrown:

@post("/")
async def hello_world(
    data: UploadFile = Body(media_type=RequestEncodingType.MULTI_PART),
) -> dict[str, Any]:
    form_data = await data.read()
    print(len(form_data))
    return {"hello": "world"}

with open("flower.jpg", "rb") as f:
    data = f.read()

with httpx.Client() as client:
    client.post("http://localhost:8000/", files={"data": data})
