I would like to know how can a server side application receive a file (via POST) and then print its contents on the server side.
The most "up to date" related question here was this one: Dart how to upload image
But it is not working anymore (Uncaught Error: type 'String' is not a subtype of type 'HttpBodyFileUpload' of 'fileUploaded').
EDIT:
This is how I send the file (this method is working fine):
import 'dart:html';
import 'dart:async';
HttpRequest request = new HttpRequest();
final _HOST = "127.0.0.1", _PORT = 8123;
Future sendFile(File file) {
var completer = new Completer(); // No need for a Completer. It will be removed.
Uri uri = new Uri(host: _HOST, port: _PORT);
request.open("POST", uri.toString());
var filename = file.name;
final FormData formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', filename);
request.onLoadEnd.listen((_) {
completer.complete(request.response);
});
request.send(formData);
return completer.future;
}
The server side (I'm stuck here):
void _handlePost(HttpRequest req) {
HttpBodyHandler.processRequest(req).then((body) {
HttpBodyFileUpload fileUploaded = body.body['file'];
print(fileUploaded.content);
});
}
