I've got a Node.js API that uses multer to handle multipart POST requests.
I am able to create a simple HTML form and POST images from there successfully.
I can also use postman to get the request to go through, but the req.file is always undefined on the server when I try to use my java method (below).
Called Method
public static void testPostImage() throws Exception {
String charset = "UTF-8";
String requestURL = "http://localhost:3000/accounts/2/details";
try {
File outputfile = new File(Util.getWorkingDirectory() + "/details");
MultipartUtility multipart = new MultipartUtility(requestURL, charset);
multipart.addFilePart("details", new File(outputfile.getAbsolutePath()));
List<String> response = multipart.finish();
General.println("SERVER REPLIED:");
for (String line : response) {
General.println(line);
}
} catch (IOException ex) {
General.println(ex);
}
}
The MultipartUtility class comes from this tutorial .
The contents of the constructor and 'addFilePart'...
Constructor
public MultipartUtility(String requestURL, String charset)
throws IOException {
this.charset = charset;
// creates a unique boundary based on time stamp
boundary = "===" + System.currentTimeMillis() + "===";
URL url = new URL(requestURL);
httpConn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
httpConn.setUseCaches(false);
httpConn.setDoOutput(true); // indicates POST method
httpConn.setDoInput(true);
httpConn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type",
"multipart/form-data; boundary=" + boundary);
httpConn.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", "CodeJava Agent");
httpConn.setRequestProperty("Test", "Bonjour");
outputStream = httpConn.getOutputStream();
writer = new PrintWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(outputStream, charset),
true);
}
addFilePart
private static final String LINE_FEED = "\r\n";
public void addFilePart(String fieldName, File uploadFile)
throws IOException {
General.println("Sending to " + fieldName + ": " + uploadFile.getAbsolutePath());
// Add boundary
writer.append("--" + boundary).append(LINE_FEED);
// Add form data
writer.append("Content-Disposition: form-data;"
+ "name=\"myFile\";"
+ "filename=\"" + fieldName + "\""
+ "\nContent-Type: text/plain\n\n").append(LINE_FEED);
writer.append("Content-Type: " + "multipart/form-data").append(LINE_FEED);
writer.append("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary").append(LINE_FEED);
writer.append(LINE_FEED);
writer.flush();
FileInputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(uploadFile);
byte[] buffer = new byte[4096];
int bytesRead = -1;
while ((bytesRead = inputStream.read(buffer)) != -1) {
outputStream.write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
}
outputStream.flush();
inputStream.close();
writer.append(LINE_FEED);
writer.flush();
}
Their might be more to it but you don't have the right line ending between your Content-disposition
and Content-type
header:
// Add form data
writer.append("Content-Disposition: form-data;"
+ "name=\"myFile\";"
+ "filename=\"" + fieldName + "\"").append(LINE_FEED);
writer.append("Content-Type: text/plain").append(LINE_FEED).append(LINE_FEED); // need 2 line feeds
Also you are mixing the order/type of headers
writer.append("Content-Type: " + "multipart/form-data").append(LINE_FEED);
writer.append("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary").append(LINE_FEED);
Should come before your encoded data.
