How to upload file using RoboSpice Google Http Java Client module with JSON Data

Question

I'm using RoboSpice Google Http Java Client module and I'm successfully executing POST request using JSON data.

Problem : My problem is now I've to attach byte[] data in POST request but I'm unable to find any way to do this with RoboSpice Google Http Java Client module.

Here is my code snippet :

public class SaveUserProfile_Request extends GoogleHttpClientSpiceRequest<SaveUserProfile> {
    private String apiUrl;
    private JSONObject mJsonObject;
    private String filePath;

    public SaveUserProfile_Request(JSONObject mJsonObject, String filePath) {
    super(SaveUserProfile.class);
    this.apiUrl = AppConstants.GLOBAL_API_BASE_ADDRESS + AppConstants.API_SAVE_PROFILE;
    this.mJsonObject = mJsonObject;
    this.filePath = filePath;
    }

    @Override
    public SaveUserProfile loadDataFromNetwork() throws IOException {
    Ln.d("Call web service " + apiUrl);

    HttpRequest request = getHttpRequestFactory().buildPostRequest(new GenericUrl(apiUrl),
        ByteArrayContent.fromString("application/json", mJsonObject.toString()));

    request.setParser(new JacksonFactory().createJsonObjectParser());

    return request.execute().parseAs(getResultType());
    }

}

I tried using Multipart HTTP Requests but it doesn't work.

check this answer here https://stackoverflow.com/a/17151284/881771 You can add the FileUpload logic to your loadFromNetwork method before calling

request.execute().parseAs(getResultType());
