and my code is 

$data = array('file'=>$filePath,'is_image'=>true);
print_r($data);

$headers = array('Content-Type' => 'application/octet-stream');
$response = $this->api->post(WPAPI::ROUTE_MEDIA, $headers, $data);

they talk about [$data in $response = $this->api->post(WPAPI::ROUTE_MEDIA, $headers, $data);]
what are the key value pairs used in $data?

  1. Finally, I fixed it myself:

    1. specify the file path
    2. put necessary headers
    3. send post request

    Here is the code:

    $filePath = 'URL of image'; //right click your fav img and copy url.
$imageData = @file_get_contents($filePath); //get image content
$headers = array('Content-Type' => 'application/json; charset= UTF-8',
       'Content-Disposition' => 'attachment; filename='.basename($filepath)');
$response = $this->api->post('/wp-json/media', $headers, $imageData);
print_r($response);

    Check the WordPress Media Gallery.

    Enjoy!
