如果服务器是apollo graphql server，从android应用程序上传文件的最佳方法是什么？

Question

I should upload a file to server from Android app using Apollo framework. The problem is that I couldn't find any library and any example for that. Is there any solution that you can provide? How to upload a file from mobile using Apollo framework? Any idea?

Answer 1

If you are using apollo client for android to consume graphql queries and mutations you have to add customTypeMapping in your build.gradle file

apollo {
  customTypeMapping = [
    "Upload" : "com.apollographql.apollo.api.FileUpload"
  ]
}

The Upload is a scalar recognized by graphql for uploading files to a server.
