base_url = 'http://host1.open.uom.lk:8080'
create_product_endpoint = '/api/products/'

new_product_data = {

    "description": "White Basmathi Rice imported from Pakistan. High-quality rice with extra fragrance. Organically grown.",
    "category": "Rice",
    "brand": "CIC",

    "unitPrice": 1020,
    "quantity": 200,
    "createdDate": "2022.02.24"
}

try:
    response = requests.post(base_url + create_product_endpoint, json=new_product_data)
    response.raise_for_status()
    print("Create new product - Response Code:", response.status_code)
    print("Create new product - Response Content:", response.json())
except requests.exceptions.RequestException as err:
    print("An error occurred:", err)
