Attempts to use curl in conjunction with api give 404 error

I am attempting to query Confluence knowledge base pages using the API and failing.
I have researched the api and have the following:
Browsing Content
curl -u admin:admin http://localhost:8080/confluence/rest/api/content/ | python -mjson.tool
Read Content and Expand the Body:
curl -u admin:admin http://localhost:8080/confluence/rest/api/content/3965072?expand=body.storage | python -mjson.tool
What I actually want to do is dump out the contents of a page / pages in a "Space" as Confluence calls it to a file, or on screen.
This is an actual page:
"https://bob.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BKB/pages/1234567/BOB+KNOWLEDGE+BANK"
And this is an example I found of using the REST API to do what I want:
curl -u admin:admin -G "http://myinstance.address:8090/rest/api/content/search" --data-urlencode "cql=(type=page and space=low and title ~ "LOWERTOWN")" \ | python -m json.tool
How I am translating what I have researched:
curl -u "bob#bob.com:12345678" -G "https://bob.atlassian.net/rest/api/content/search" --data-urlencode "cql=(type=page and space=BKB and title ~ "BOB+KNOWLEDGE+BANK")" \ | python -m json.tool
Which results in this error:
curl: (3) URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL
No JSON object could be decoded
I have grabbed my logic here from this site:
https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/How-to-get-Conflunece-knowledge-base-data-through-API/qaq-p/1030159
And I am assuming I have misunderstood this:
/rest/api/content/search
And where it belongs in my curl statement and linking it to the knowledge base. I am also unsure if applying the -mjson.tool is applicable in my case or if I actually have it installed / need to verify that.
Can you help me interpret this correctly?

You are almost there! You just need to pass cql as query parameter to the service as mentioned here in Atlassian documentation:
curl --request GET
--url 'https://your-domain.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/search?cql={cql}'
--header 'Authorization: Bearer <access_token>'
--header 'Accept: application/json'

Send curl POST Request in Python without installing a lib

I wanna send a curl post request in python. But I can't install any lib like 'request'. I could send POST request like following example :
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d {\"username\":\"myusername\",\"password\":\"mypassword\"} https://example.com/login
I need equal code as the above in python2. Then, i must read what it returns. I'm working on Windows 10.

Write a curl command in a way that it can work in the shell and then execute the command in the shell.
This way you don't need the requests package.
import os
command = "curl -u {username}:{password} [URL]"
os.system(command)

How to programmatically set the github repo inside jenkins job configuration page

I want to set the Github repository url in http://host-ip:8080/job/my_project/configure jenkins page via code each time I spawn a new Jenkins container.
I read that this can be done with python-jenkins's reconfig_job function by replacing the config.xml .
Well how would I do that?

You have some clues in "How can I update a jenkins job using the api?"
For instance, since you spawn a new Jenkins container, you can docker cp an updated config.xml to the container (at the right path for that job)
(the OP Kostas Demiris confirms in the comments it works, when run in git bash)
You can also use one of the Jenkins API libraries, but check if a simple curl is enough first
#Get the current configuration and save it locally
curl -X GET http://user:password#jenkins.server.org/job/myjobname/config.xml -o mylocalconfig.xml
#Update the configuration via posting a local configuration file
curl -X POST http://user:password#jenkins.server.org/job/myjobname/config.xml --data-binary "#mymodifiedlocalconfig.xml"
The updated Jenkins doc mentions (for updating just one parameter in an existing config job):
Simple example - sending "String Parameters":
curl -X POST JENKINS_URL/job/JOB_NAME/build \
--data token=TOKEN \
--data-urlencode json='{"parameter": [{"name":"id", "value":"123"}, {"name":"verbosity", "value":"high"}]}'
Another example - sending a "File Parameter":
curl -X POST JENKINS_URL/job/JOB_NAME/build \
--user USER:PASSWORD \
--form file0=#PATH_TO_FILE \
--form json='{"parameter": [{"name":"FILE_LOCATION_AS_SET_IN_JENKINS", "file":"file0"}]}'

Upload File using Django Rest Framework

I am new to django. Can anybody help me... How can I upload a file using the Rest Framework API ?
I have tried following this page:
http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/parsers/#fileuploadparser

File uploading in Django REST framework is the same with uploading files in multipart/form in django.
To test it you can use curl:
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type:multipart/form-data" -u {username}:{password} \
-F "{field_name}=#{filename};type=image/jpeg" http://{your api endpoint}
Other fields are just like normal form fields in Django.

Zhe answer is pretty well. Besides, you can add some parameters in order to see the response. Take this one for example:
curl -X PATCH --dump-header - -H "Content-Type:multipart/form-data" -u jorge:123456 -F "image=#/home/oscar/Pictures/dgnest/_MG_6445.JPG;type=image/jpeg" http://localhost:8000/api/project/3/
