I am facing the same issue. I hope you can guide me a bit.
Generating VCard function:
import object
import base64
def b64_image(filename):
with open(filename, 'rb') as f:
b64 = base64.b64encode(f.read())
return b64.decode('utf-8')
def make_vcard(fname,lname,email,phonenumber,CompanyName,website,photo):
file_name='{}.vcf'.format(fname)
with open(file_name , 'w') as file_vcard:
vcard = vobject.vCard()
o = vcard.add('fn')
o.value = fname
o = vcard.add('N')
o.value = vobject.vcard.Name(family=lname, given=fname)
o = vcard.add('email')
o.type_param = 'INTERNET'
o.value = email
o = vcard.add('org')
o.value = [CompanyName]
o = vcard.add('TEL')
o.type_param = 'HOME'
o.value = phonenumber
o = vcard.add('url')
o.type_param = "Website"
o.value = website
o = vcard.add('PHOTO;ENCODING=b;TYPE=image/jpeg')
o.value = b64_image(photo)
o = vcard.add('adr')
o.value = vobject.vcard.Address('900 riverside','gilroy', 'ca', '95000', 'USA')
file_vcard.write(vcard.serialize())
fname='Test'
lname='Test'
email='[email protected]'
phonenumber='+16500000000'
CompanyName = 'Test'
website='http://google.com'
photo='default.jpg'
make_vcard(fname,lname,email,phonenumber,CompanyName,website,photo)
For uploading it on S3 i am using following code:
import boto3
def upload_vcard_on_bucket(file_path,file_name):
session = boto3.session.Session(
aws_access_key_id='xxxxxxx',
aws_secret_access_key='xxxxxxx',
region_name='xxxxxxx',
)
# # Define client and resource for s3
s3_client = session.client('s3')
s3 = session.resource('s3')
bucket = "xxxxxxx"
upload_vcard_path = 'media/vcard/'
base_url = "https://stg-xxxxxxx.s3.xxxxxxx.amazonaws.com/"
upload_original_file = (upload_vcard_path + file_name)
s3.Bucket(bucket).upload_file(file_path, upload_original_file)
return upload_original_file
a = upload_vcard_on_bucket('Try.vcf','Try.vcf')

Make sure to see the proper MIME type for the file hosted on S3?
Text: text/vcard
Accepted Content Types for Media
Twilio developer evangelist here.
Currently your VCard has a Content-Type of
binary/octet-stream
which Twilio does not recognise.Instead, when you upload the file to S3 you should set the content type to
text/vcard
.With boto3 you should be able to do this by including further arguments to the
upload_file
method, like so:See the answers to this question for other ways to set the Content-Type.
