Upload files using Faraday

I'm having issues attempting to upload a file to a web service using Faraday.

My code:

conn = Faraday.new('http://myapi') do |f|
  f.request :multipart
end

payload = { :file => Faraday::UploadIO.new('...', 'image/jpeg') }

conn.post('/', payload)

Nothing seems to happen after attempting the post. When I inspect the response this is what I'm seeing:

The body is being set to a CompositeReadIO object and it seems to never be sending out a request.

It turns out that I needed to specify an adapter. Here's the code that ended up working.

conn = Faraday.new('http://myapi') do |f|
  f.request :multipart
  f.request :url_encoded
  f.adapter :net_http # This is what ended up making it work
end

payload = { :file => Faraday::UploadIO.new('...', 'image/jpeg') }

conn.post('/', payload)

回答2:

Something like this resolved my problem:

conn = Faraday.new(url: URL) do |faraday|
  faraday.request :multipart #make sure this is set before url_encoded
  faraday.request :url_encoded
  faraday.adapter Faraday.default_adapter
end

file = Faraday::UploadIO.new(
  params[:image].tempfile.path,
  params[:image].content_type,
  params[:image].original_filename
)

payload = { :file => file }

conn.post('/', payload)

回答3:

Faraday after v0.16.0: https://lostisland.github.io/faraday/middleware/multipart

"Multipart" middleware detects files and encodes with "multipart/form-data":

payload[:profile_pic] = Faraday::FilePart.new('/path/to/avatar.jpg', 'image/jpeg')

conn.put '/profile', payload
