Upload Photo Using Httppost Multipartentitybuilder

Upload Photo using HttpPost MultiPartEntityBuilder

Check that jar in Order and Export tab and run.

Post files to server from Android - MultipartEntityBuilder - HTTP

I was fortunate enough to find one Answer by Krystian in Stackoverflow that solved my issue.

After adding the boundary it started working. I had to add it to the HTTP Post

String boundary = "-------------" + System.currentTimeMillis();
httppost.setHeader("Content-type", "multipart/form-data; boundary="+boundary);

and to the entity

MultipartEntityBuilder builder = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();
builder.setMode(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);
builder.setBoundary(boundary);

Now I get everything in the server:

Upload file by HTTP POST

You seem to be missing a dependency.

I have httpclient-4.2.5, httpcleint-cache-4.2.5, httpcore-4.2.4 and httpmime-4.2.5 with commons-lang3-3.1 and commons-logging-1.1.2 jars in my class path.

I also use entity.addPart(formFieldName, new FileBody(file, "image/jpeg")); instead of using the header property.

Take a look at Internet media type for more details

Upload a file through an HTTP form, via MultipartEntityBuilder, with a progress bar

The winning code (in spectacular Java-Heresy(tm) style) is:

public static String postFile(String fileName, String userName, String password, String macAddress) throws Exception {

    HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
    HttpPost post = new HttpPost(SERVER + "uploadFile");
    MultipartEntityBuilder builder = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();        
    builder.setMode(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);

    final File file = new File(fileName);
    FileBody fb = new FileBody(file);

    builder.addPart("file", fb);  
    builder.addTextBody("userName", userName);
    builder.addTextBody("password", password);
    builder.addTextBody("macAddress",  macAddress);
    final HttpEntity yourEntity = builder.build();

    class ProgressiveEntity implements HttpEntity {
        @Override
        public void consumeContent() throws IOException {
            yourEntity.consumeContent();                
        }
        @Override
        public InputStream getContent() throws IOException,
                IllegalStateException {
            return yourEntity.getContent();
        }
        @Override
        public Header getContentEncoding() {             
            return yourEntity.getContentEncoding();
        }
        @Override
        public long getContentLength() {
            return yourEntity.getContentLength();
        }
        @Override
        public Header getContentType() {
            return yourEntity.getContentType();
        }
        @Override
        public boolean isChunked() {             
            return yourEntity.isChunked();
        }
        @Override
        public boolean isRepeatable() {
            return yourEntity.isRepeatable();
        }
        @Override
        public boolean isStreaming() {             
            return yourEntity.isStreaming();
        } // CONSIDER put a _real_ delegator into here!

        @Override
        public void writeTo(OutputStream outstream) throws IOException {

            class ProxyOutputStream extends FilterOutputStream {
                /**

                 */

                public ProxyOutputStream(OutputStream proxy) {
                    super(proxy);    
                }
                public void write(int idx) throws IOException {
                    out.write(idx);
                }
                public void write(byte[] bts) throws IOException {
                    out.write(bts);

                    out.flush();
                }
                public void close() throws IOException {
                    out.close();
                }
            } // CONSIDER import this class (and risk more Jar File Hell)

            class ProgressiveOutputStream extends ProxyOutputStream {
                public ProgressiveOutputStream(OutputStream proxy) {
                    super(proxy);
                }
                public void write(byte[] bts, int st, int end) throws IOException {

                    // FIXME  Put your progress bar stuff here!

                    out.write(bts, st, end);
                }
            }

            yourEntity.writeTo(new ProgressiveOutputStream(outstream));
        }

    };
    ProgressiveEntity myEntity = new ProgressiveEntity();

    post.setEntity(myEntity);
    HttpResponse response = client.execute(post);        

    return getContent(response);

} 

public static String getContent(HttpResponse response) throws IOException {
    BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(response.getEntity().getContent()));
    String body = "";
    String content = "";

    while ((body = rd.readLine()) != null) 
    {
        content += body + "\n";
    }
    return content.trim();
}

Android : upload Image and JSON using MultiPartEntityBuilder

To send binary data you need to use addBinaryBody method of MultipartEntityBuilder. Sample of attaching:

import org.apache.http.entity.ContentType;
import org.apache.http.entity.mime.MultipartEntityBuilder;
//Image attaching
MultipartEntityBuilder multipartEntity = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();
File file;
multipartEntity.addBinaryBody("someName", file, ContentType.create("image/jpeg"), file.getName());
//Json string attaching
String json;
multipartEntity.addPart("someName", new StringBody(json, ContentType.TEXT_PLAIN));

Then make request as usual:

HttpPut put = new HttpPut("url");
put.setEntity(multipartEntity.build());
HttpResponse response = client.execute(put);
int statusCode = response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
