Enviar archivos usando POST con HttpURLConnection

Question

Dado que los desarrolladores de Android recommend utilizar la clase HttpURLConnection , me preguntaba si alguien me puede dar un buen ejemplo sobre cómo enviar un "archivo" de mapa de bits (en realidad una secuencia en memoria) a través de POST a un servidor Apache HTTP. No me interesan las cookies o la autenticación ni nada complicado, pero solo quiero tener una implementación lógica y confiable. Todos los ejemplos que he visto por aquí se parecen más a "probemos esto y quizás funcione".

En este momento, tengo este código:

URL url;
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = null;
try {
    url = new URL("http://example.com/server.cgi");

    urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();

} catch (Exception e) {
    this.showDialog(getApplicationContext(), e.getMessage());
}
finally {
    if (urlConnection != null)
    {
        urlConnection.disconnect();
    }
}

donde showDialog solo debería mostrar un AlertDialog (en caso de una URL no válida?).

Ahora, digamos que genero un mapa de bits como ese: Bitmap image = this.getBitmap() dentro de un control derivado de View y quiero enviarlo a través de POST. ¿Cuál sería el procedimiento adecuado para lograr tal cosa? ¿Qué clases necesito usar? ¿Puedo usar HttpPost como en este ejemplo ? Si es así, ¿cómo construiría InputStreamEntity para mi mapa de bits? Me parece repugnante que se requiera primero almacenar el mapa de bits en un archivo en el dispositivo.

También debo mencionar que realmente necesito enviar todos los píxeles inalterados del mapa de bits original al servidor, por lo que no puedo convertirlo a JPEG.

De hecho, encontré una mejor manera de enviar archivos usando HttpURLConnection usando MultipartEntity

private static String multipost(String urlString, MultipartEntity reqEntity) {
    try {
        URL url = new URL(urlString);
        HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
        conn.setReadTimeout(10000);
        conn.setConnectTimeout(15000);
        conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
        conn.setUseCaches(false);
        conn.setDoInput(true);
        conn.setDoOutput(true);

        conn.setRequestProperty("Connection", "Keep-Alive");
        conn.addRequestProperty("Content-length", reqEntity.getContentLength()+"");
        conn.addRequestProperty(reqEntity.getContentType().getName(), reqEntity.getContentType().getValue());

        OutputStream os = conn.getOutputStream();
        reqEntity.writeTo(conn.getOutputStream());
        os.close();
        conn.connect();

        if (conn.getResponseCode() == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
            return readStream(conn.getInputStream());
        }

    } catch (Exception e) {
        Log.e(TAG, "multipart post error " + e + "(" + urlString + ")");
    }
    return null;        
}

private static String readStream(InputStream in) {
    BufferedReader reader = null;
    StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
    try {
        reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
        String line = "";
        while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
            builder.append(line);
        }
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
        if (reader != null) {
            try {
                reader.close();
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    }
    return builder.toString();
} 

Suponiendo que está cargando una imagen con datos de mapa de bits:

    Bitmap bitmap = ...;
    String filename = "filename.png";
    ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, bos);
    ContentBody contentPart = new ByteArrayBody(bos.toByteArray(), filename);

    MultipartEntity reqEntity = new MultipartEntity(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);
    reqEntity.addPart("picture", contentPart);
    String response = multipost("http://server.com", reqEntity);

¡Y voilá! Sus datos de publicación contendrán un campo de imagen junto con el nombre de archivo y la ruta en su servidor.

Encontré usar okHttp mucho más fácil ya que no pude lograr que ninguna de estas soluciones funcionara: https://.com/a/37942387/447549

Esta respuesta https://.com/a/33149413/6481542 me llevó el 90% del camino con la carga de archivos de gran tamaño a un servidor Django de desarrollo, pero tuve que usar setFixedLengthStreamingMode para hacerlo funcionar. Eso requiere establecer la longitud del contenido antes de escribir el contenido, por lo que requiere una reescritura bastante significativa de la respuesta anterior. Aquí está mi resultado final

El uso es en gran parte el mismo que en la respuesta anterior, pero he incluido el soporte CSRF que Django usa de forma predeterminada con formularios

boolean useCSRF = true;
MultipartLargeUtility multipart = new MultipartLargeUtility(url, "UTF-8",useCSRF);
multipart.addFormField("param1","value");
multipart.addFilePart("filefield",new File("/path/to/file"));
List<String> response = multipart.finish();
Log.w(TAG,"SERVER REPLIED:");
for(String line : response) {
    Log.w(TAG, "Upload Files Response:::" + line);
}

Answer 4

Esto es lo que hice para subir fotos usando una solicitud posterior.

public void uploadFile(int directoryID, String filePath) {
    Bitmap bitmapOrg = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath);
    ByteArrayOutputStream bao = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

    String upload_url = BASE_URL + UPLOAD_FILE;
    bitmapOrg.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 90, bao);

    byte[] data = bao.toByteArray();

    HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
    HttpPost postRequest = new HttpPost(upload_url);
    MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);

    try {
        // Set Data and Content-type header for the image
        FileBody fb = new FileBody(new File(filePath), "image/jpeg");
        StringBody contentString = new StringBody(directoryID + "");

        entity.addPart("file", fb);
        entity.addPart("directory_id", contentString);
        postRequest.setEntity(entity);

        HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(postRequest);
        // Read the response
        String jsonString = EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());
        Log.e("response after uploading file ", jsonString);

    } catch (Exception e) {
        Log.e("Error in uploadFile", e.getMessage());
    }
}

Answer 6

No he probado esto, pero puede intentar usar PipedInputStream y PipedOutputStream. Puede ser algo así como:

final Bitmap bmp = … // your bitmap

// Set up Piped streams
final PipedOutputStream pos = new PipedOutputStream(new ByteArrayOutputStream());
final PipedInputStream pis = new PipedInputStream(pos);

// Send bitmap data to the PipedOutputStream in a separate thread
new Thread() {
    public void run() {
        bmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, pos);
    }
}.start();

// Send POST request
try {
    // Construct InputStreamEntity that feeds off of the PipedInputStream
    InputStreamEntity reqEntity = new InputStreamEntity(pis, -1);

    HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
    HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(url);
    reqEntity.setContentType("binary/octet-stream");
    reqEntity.setChunked(true);
    httppost.setEntity(reqEntity);
    HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
} catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace()
}

Answer 7

No tengo idea de por qué la clase HttpURLConnection no proporciona ningún medio para enviar archivos sin tener que componer el contenedor de archivos manualmente. Esto es lo que terminé haciendo, pero si alguien conoce una solución mejor, hágamelo saber.

Datos de entrada:

Bitmap bitmap = myView.getBitmap();

Cosas estáticas:

String attachmentName = "bitmap";
String attachmentFileName = "bitmap.bmp";
String crlf = "/r/n";
String twoHyphens = "--";
String boundary =  "*****";

Configure la solicitud:

HttpURLConnection httpUrlConnection = null;
URL url = new URL("http://example.com/server.cgi");
httpUrlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
httpUrlConnection.setUseCaches(false);
httpUrlConnection.setDoOutput(true);

httpUrlConnection.setRequestMethod("POST");
httpUrlConnection.setRequestProperty("Connection", "Keep-Alive");
httpUrlConnection.setRequestProperty("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
httpUrlConnection.setRequestProperty(
    "Content-Type", "multipart/form-data;boundary=" + this.boundary);

Inicie el contenedor de contenido:

DataOutputStream request = new DataOutputStream(
    httpUrlConnection.getOutputStream());

request.writeBytes(this.twoHyphens + this.boundary + this.crlf);
request.writeBytes("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=/"" +
    this.attachmentName + "/";filename=/"" + 
    this.attachmentFileName + "/"" + this.crlf);
request.writeBytes(this.crlf);

Convertir Bitmap de Bitmap a ByteBuffer :

//I want to send only 8 bit black & white bitmaps
byte[] pixels = new byte[bitmap.getWidth() * bitmap.getHeight()];
for (int i = 0; i < bitmap.getWidth(); ++i) {
    for (int j = 0; j < bitmap.getHeight(); ++j) {
        //we''re interested only in the MSB of the first byte, 
        //since the other 3 bytes are identical for B&W images
        pixels[i + j] = (byte) ((bitmap.getPixel(i, j) & 0x80) >> 7);
    }
}

request.write(pixels);

Contenedor de contenido final:

request.writeBytes(this.crlf);
request.writeBytes(this.twoHyphens + this.boundary + 
    this.twoHyphens + this.crlf);

Tampón de salida de descarga:

request.flush();
request.close();

Obtener una respuesta:

InputStream responseStream = new 
    BufferedInputStream(httpUrlConnection.getInputStream());

BufferedReader responseStreamReader = 
    new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(responseStream));

String line = "";
StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();

while ((line = responseStreamReader.readLine()) != null) {
    stringBuilder.append(line).append("/n");
}
responseStreamReader.close();

String response = stringBuilder.toString();

Cerrar flujo de respuesta:

responseStream.close();

Cierre la conexión:

httpUrlConnection.disconnect();

PD: Por supuesto que tuve que ajustar la solicitud en private class AsyncUploadBitmaps extends AsyncTask<Bitmap, Void, String> , para hacer que la plataforma Android sea feliz, porque no le gusta tener solicitudes de red en el hilo principal.

Para cargar archivos en el servidor con algún parámetro usando MultipartUtility de manera simple.

MultipartUtility.java

public class MultipartUtility {

            throw new IOException("Server returned non-OK status: " + status);
        }

        return response.toString();
    }
}

Para upload tu file junto con los parámetros.

NOTA: ponga este código debajo en thread no-ui para obtener respuesta.

String charset = "UTF-8";
String requestURL = "YOUR_URL";

MultipartUtility multipart = new MultipartUtility(requestURL, charset);
multipart.addFormField("param_name_1", "param_value");
multipart.addFormField("param_name_2", "param_value");
multipart.addFormField("param_name_3", "param_value");
multipart.addFilePart("file_param_1", new File(file_path));
String response = multipart.finish(); // response from server.

Probé las soluciones anteriores y ninguna me funcionó de la caja.

Sin embargo http://www.baeldung.com/httpclient-post-http-request . Solicitud de multipartida POST de la línea 6 trabajada en segundos

public void whenSendMultipartRequestUsingHttpClient_thenCorrect() 
  throws ClientProtocolException, IOException {
    CloseableHttpClient client = HttpClients.createDefault();
    HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost("http://www.example.com");

    MultipartEntityBuilder builder = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();
    builder.addTextBody("username", "John");
    builder.addTextBody("password", "pass");
    builder.addBinaryBody("file", new File("test.txt"),
      ContentType.APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM, "file.ext");

    HttpEntity multipart = builder.build();
    httpPost.setEntity(multipart);

    CloseableHttpResponse response = client.execute(httpPost);
    client.close();
}

Answer 10

basado en la solución de Mihai, si alguien tiene el problema de guardar imágenes en el servidor como lo que sucedió en mi servidor. cambie la parte Bitmap totebuffer a:

ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG,100,bos);
        byte[] pixels = bos.toByteArray();
