post a JSON file with curl

How do you POST a JSON file with curl??

You can post a json file with curl like so:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d @FILENAME DESTINATION

so for example:

require 'nokogiri'
require 'open-uri'
# Get a Nokogiri::HTML:Document for the page we're interested in...
doc = Nokogiri::HTML(open('http://www.google.com/search?q=tenderlove'))
# Do funky things with it using Nokogiri::XML::Node methods...
