http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32187450/trouble-sending-multipart-file-with-boundary-via-volley

try and give me feedback.

came across your gist while searching on the web. i have a question though, how is the image sent to a server? in byte array or base64?
if possible how can i retrieve and save the image in a php server. thanks

I came a cross your gist on stackover flow, I must say its well done, it has really eased my work. Many thanks

ray86 is the normal way you handle multipart data from a normal form on the web. I am using REST Api library on code igniter framework.

@ray86 No, this code does not convert images or file into string, you just treat the file like web form,, the idea build multipart data header,, it's similar you upload file as well..

First of all, thanks. Great code!

Now my question: Is there any way to send multiple files at once with the same name?

@inlacou you can change file name in php code.

this is great @anggadarkprince !! I have one question, can you add the LruBitmapCache.java?

datafile.getContent() is returning null to me

i need progress count for inform user there is any idea to do this inside VolleyMultipartRequest.java

Dear
@anggadarkprince
thank U
perfect code
very easily to apply
before Ur solution
I'm using Base64encode file Volley PostReuest upload and Server side decode it

but there is a little problem for me
It seems that textpart doesn't support Traditional-Chinese
for example:
params.put("tanktype", "男版"); the server side $_POST["tanktype"] got "7H"
any suggestion?

BTW
@danponce
just google "LruBitmapCache"
a sample implementation for an in-memory LruBitmapCache class FOUND
https://developer.android.com/training/volley/request.html

@db0910 try to uncomment the encoding code
dataOutputStream.writeBytes("Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8" + lineEnd);
maybe it help set UTF-8 encoding that support Traditional-Chinese

@abdulahad1991 you must passing byte data via setter method or constructor, i just give an example retrieve image byte data from drawable content, please explore how you could improvise depends on your cases..

Dear @anggadarkprince
thanks for your reply
I have solved this problem (UTF-8 encode sequence)

In the "buildTextPart" subroutine
change
"dataOutputStream.writeBytes(parameterValue + lineEnd);"

to
"dataOutputStream.write(parameterValue.getBytes("utf-8"));"
"dataOutputStream.writeBytes(lineEnd);"

and I don't uncomment the encoding code
"dataOutputStream.writeBytes("Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8" + lineEnd);"

thanks for yout perfect code
very easily to apply
thank you

@db0910 oh i see, i'm glad for you too you found the solution,
I had the same problem before about uploaded image, until i rewrote the code from many references, and here it is....

can we determine progress of request

Thank you for showing how to do this.
Is there a license tied to this? May I use your design of VolleyMultipartRequest.java and would you like credit?

@anggadarkprince
great code!
@db0910
thank you for sharing this problem.

Awesome code. This is gold.

I used your gist with some editions.
It sends data fine.
But I have a problem with encoding.
I use Arabic text but it is sent as English text.
Any suggestions.?

@db0910 Thank you for this.
"dataOutputStream.write(parameterValue.getBytes("utf-8"));"
"dataOutputStream.writeBytes(lineEnd);"

How could we send data from a phone camera intent, or a file on the phone? Your only example (it seems) is getting the byte data from a "drawable". Is that really the most common use case of this code? I admit I'm new to posting multipart data over the network in Android.
In other words, what other classes could you make like "AppHelper.getFileDataFromDrawable", that get data from a file for example?

Would it start with sending in file_name as a String, and then:
File file = new File(file_name);
FileBody fb = new FileBody(file);
??

@anggadarkprince I'm new to android development and would like to ask if this code can handle audio or video stream to upload to server? Thanks a lot 😄

to answer my own question... yep, it can support audio and video 😄

@db0910 - Thanks! you saved my day.

Hi nice description. When I tried with this by sending json in value of hashMap I got multipart boundry not supported. I do not understand is there any problem at app side to send or to receive at back end side. So please can you send how to receive json & multipart body at server side?

@db0910 Thank you so much!

Thank you !!!

Awsom work

I have issues on how to receive the file at my server side. can anyone help me with a php sample?

Its good for image file. But can't get for uploading videos. How will video file will get uploaded from VideoView?

Thank you, it works for me

Hi... I liked your code and it worked very well for me. But I wanted to get files stored on External Storage, so I changed to get files via Uri.

public static byte[] getFileDataFromUri(Context context, Uri uri) { Bitmap bitmap = null; try { bitmap = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(context.getContentResolver(), uri); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } ByteArrayOutputStream byteArrayOutputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 80, byteArrayOutputStream); return byteArrayOutputStream.toByteArray(); }

After searching for what felt like a lifetime, I found this post and it worked like a charm. All I can say is THANK YOU

can i upload audia, video and multiple images using this code??

Just wanted to leave a big thanks for sharing. This really helped want I wanted to do.
And btw, as some users are also requesting, this would be even better if it worked with any filetype.
Again, thank you.

I got this NoConnectionError: java.io.IOException: unexpected end of stream on Connection, while uploading image and video. What could be the possible solution? Here is the more detail about the problem http://stackoverflow.com/q/43977319/5255006.

@anggadarkprince , THANK YOU A LOT! First Really Working Solution which was worked for me. You solved my biggest problem. Thanx!

Just wanted to check if anyone is able to upload video from Uri? If possible please share some sample.

able to do by converting to ByteArray

`ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File(mImageUri.getPath()));

                byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
                int n;
                while (-1 != (n = fis.read(buf)))
                    baos.write(buf, 0, n);

                byte[] videoBytes = baos.toByteArray();`

Many thanks for your code! It has saved my day!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you...... New to Java and Android world and after many attempts to transmit image to service with no success, this has help more than you can imagine, works like a charm...

hello, I am getting an error on this line. Cannot resolve symbol "LruBitmapCache"
please help,

Thanks a lot

is this code will upload pdf document as well??

Hi this request work in activity but doesn't work in Fragment. How can i do in Fragment ?

How to show progress, that how much data is uploaded?

@anggadarkprince how can i getByteData of images when i only have Arraylist < Uri > of images / String array of imagePaths ?

Is it okay to retrive byte data from images like this or there are better ways ?

    protected Map<String, DataPart> getByteData() {
        Map<String, DataPart> params = new HashMap<>();

        int i = 0;
        for (Uri uri : selectedUriList) {
            i++;
            try {
                InputStream iStream = getContentResolver().openInputStream(uri);
                byte[] inputData = getBytes(iStream);
                // file name could found file base or direct access from real path
                // for now just get bitmap data from ImageView
                params.put("image_file"+i, new DataPart("image"+i+".jpg", inputData , "image/jpeg"));

            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }

        }

        return params;
    }

The error iam facing is due to slow server ? or something else ? how to debug this?

Is there something i need to communicate to backend team (Server Side) , imean to handle my request .

Here is the github link to complete project code https://github.com/sooorajjj/vstImageClassifier Thanks!

Error:(40, 87) error: incompatible types: Context cannot be converted to int
==>private final LruCache<String, Bitmap> cache = new LruBitmapCache(mCtx);

Hi, I get EOFException. What can It be due to? Thanks

@db0910 👍 for
dataOutputStream.write(parameterValue.getBytes("utf-8")); dataOutputStream.writeBytes(lineEnd);

in VolleyMultipartRequest::buildTextPart(). Maybe the gist can be updated? (Should parameterName be encoded too b.t.w. ?)

And 🥇 to @anggadarkprince for the great work! As Java-newbie I am totally stunned about how complicated it was to achieve such an android everyday task as uploading image/text to a server. Couldn't have done it without this help!

Great !!!

Thank you it worked fine

Thank you so much¡¡¡ Great Code

Hi, Thank you so much form amazing code!
I want to inform you of a problem perhaps:
private VolleySingleton(Context context) { mCtx = context; ... ... private final LruCache<String, Bitmap> cache = new LruBitmapCache(mCtx);

As reported by https://developer.android.com/reference/android/util/LruCache.html
int cacheSize = 4 * 1024 * 1024; // 4MiB
LruCache<String, Bitmap> bitmapCache = new LruCache<String, Bitmap>(cacheSize) {
protected int sizeOf(String key, Bitmap value) {
return value.getByteCount();
}
}
LruCache want int not a Context
My android-studio project it signals me an error

Hi,Thanks for a great tutorial . But i am facing an issue , I have implemented this in a fragment and whenever i upload an image it successfully uploads to the server but after doing fragment transition it is showing previous selected image in the image view. Please help me.
Thanks

Thank you very much. Much appreciated 👍

Hi everyone, m newbie to this library, will anyone can tell me, I want to attach a filename and filedata( as bas64 string) inside the JSONRequest. How can I update this solution?

Thanks in advance.

Not working for images whose name is something like "/storage/emulated/0/Download/God of Hollywood industry - JackSparrow @jhonnydeppoffical • • • • • Follow me @s.jpg" how to solve this issue ?

@db0910 and @anggadarkprince

getparams() is not working, anyone fix it ??? server never receives my params!

Thank you very much.Its perfectly working (Y)

Thanky you!

Getting an error in :
if (status.equals(Constant.REQUEST_SUCCESS))
Error : Cannot resolve symbol

Do I need to create a "Constant" class?

Wow thanks!! Great code, you saved me a lot of time!

works like a charm thank you!!

thanks a lot. I didn't use it for uploading an image, I used it to send data to a server and it worked fine.

Hello Sir i want backend code of PHP(webservice) through which images are going to upload to server

Awesome code. Thanks a lot.
For single file upload done successfully.

@anggadarkprince : Is there any way to send multiple files at once with the same name?

Because currently it is not working with same keyname.

e.g.

protected Map<String, DataPart> getByteData() {
    Map<String, DataPart> params = new HashMap<>();

    params.put("avatar", new DataPart("file_avatar.jpg", AppHelper.getFileDataFromDrawable(getBaseContext(), mAvatarImage.getDrawable()), "image/jpeg"));
    params.put("avatar", new DataPart("file_cover.jpg", AppHelper.getFileDataFromDrawable(getBaseContext(), mCoverImage.getDrawable()), "image/jpeg"));

    return params;
}

Please provide any solution for this problem.

how to send pdf file please anyone help me i m getting size = 0 while uploading file to server any one show the code to send pdf file

This code works really well, however I have only a small issue with it:
When I send binary data, your code adds quotation marks to the name & file-name, which creates a problem for me. I think a better solution would be to only escape the quotation marks inside the sent names/filenames if they exist, and leave out the added quotation marks.

This can be done by replacing the second line in the "buildDataPart" method with the following:

dataOutputStream.writeBytes(String.format( "Content-Disposition: form-data; name=%s;filename=%s%s", inputName, dataFile.getFileName(), lineEnd));

I have huge problem and i don't know how to fix it. My server is looking for File=file(in postman when i make call i have to put key "File" and value is file) how i Can send it? In multipart was something like builder.addFormDataPart("file", "image.jpg", RequestBody.create(MediaType.parse("image/jpeg"), byteArray.toByteArray())); But there is no such thinks ;/

I have a problem with words with accents, for example mamá, It gives an error if I send that, that's why what I'm doing is removing that accent. ¿Is there any solution for this?

you didn't set content type in constructor of DataPart, thus content type is null

Great code... Thank you

Getting an error in :
if (status.equals(Constant.REQUEST_SUCCESS))
Error : Cannot resolve symbol

Do I need to create a "Constant" class?

Hi I used this working perfectly but on P is not working any help will me more helpful

Awesome code. This works like a charm and saved a lot of my time. Thanks a lot.

Thank you so much!

How can i retrieve the send data via my php code??

I made a fork based on the good answer by @db0910 to support UTF-8 .. Thanks @anggadarkprince for providing the gist in the first place 👍 😉

Hey how do i get the send data via the php ??
