I'm using this class to upload image to php server from my android app.
But I want to send some parameters such as custom file name, user who uploaded the file etc.
Is there any way to send some parameters while uploading the file?
Example: name=newimage&uploadedby=username
private class UploadFileAsync extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {
@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
try {
String sourceFileUri = "/mnt/sdcard/abc.png";
HttpURLConnection conn = null;
DataOutputStream dos = null;
String lineEnd = "\r\n";
String twoHyphens = "--";
String boundary = "*****";
int bytesRead, bytesAvailable, bufferSize;
byte[] buffer;
int maxBufferSize = 1 * 1024 * 1024;
File sourceFile = new File(sourceFileUri);
if (sourceFile.isFile()) {
try {
String upLoadServerUri = "http://website.com/abc.php?";
// open a URL connection to the Servlet
FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(
sourceFile);
URL url = new URL(upLoadServerUri);
conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
conn.setDoInput(true); // Allow Inputs
conn.setDoOutput(true); // Allow Outputs
conn.setUseCaches(false); // Don't use a Cached Copy
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
conn.setRequestProperty("Connection", "Keep-Alive");
conn.setRequestProperty("ENCTYPE",
"multipart/form-data");
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type",
"multipart/form-data;boundary=" + boundary);
conn.setRequestProperty("bill", sourceFileUri);
dos = new DataOutputStream(conn.getOutputStream());
dos.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + lineEnd);
dos.writeBytes("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"bill\";filename=\""
+ sourceFileUri + "\"" + lineEnd);
dos.writeBytes(lineEnd);
bytesAvailable = fileInputStream.available();
bufferSize = Math.min(bytesAvailable, maxBufferSize);
buffer = new byte[bufferSize];
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
while (bytesRead > 0) {
dos.write(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
bytesAvailable = fileInputStream.available();
bufferSize = Math
.min(bytesAvailable, maxBufferSize);
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0,
bufferSize);
}
dos.writeBytes(lineEnd);
dos.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + twoHyphens
+ lineEnd);
serverResponseCode = conn.getResponseCode();
String serverResponseMessage = conn
.getResponseMessage();
if (serverResponseCode == 200) {
//Toast.makeText(ctx, "File Upload Complete.",
// Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
fileInputStream.close();
dos.flush();
dos.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return "Executed";
}
}
Is there any way to do this with header request, like this:
conn.setRequestProperty("parameters","name=filename&uploadedby=username");
