I'm trying to upload an image with my iOS app (Swift 2.0). The server gets the request and sends status 200, but when it comes to the file upload the image-data doesn't get uploaded. The print_r($_FILES);
command gives me response:
Array
(
)
wrong format for image
This is the code:
func send()
{
let request = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: NSURL(string: "***URL to upload.php***")!)
request.HTTPMethod = "POST"
let postString = "username=\(globalUsr)&photo-name=\(globalImage.description)&photo-description=\(message.text)"
let myData : NSData! = postString.dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)
let imageData :NSData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(globalImage, 1.0)!;
let boundary = "-----SwiftBoundary-----"
let contentType = "multipart/form-data; boundary=\(boundary)"
let body = NSMutableData();
let tempData = NSMutableData()
let fileName = "\(globalImage.description).jpg"
let parameterName = "contest-photo"
tempData.appendData(myData)
tempData.appendData("--\(boundary)\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
let fileNameContentDisposition = "name=\(parameterName)"
let contentDisposition = "Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"\(fileName)\"; \(fileNameContentDisposition)\r\n"
tempData.appendData(contentDisposition.dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
tempData.appendData("Content-Type: \(contentType)\r\n\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
tempData.appendData(imageData)
tempData.appendData("\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
body.appendData(tempData)
body.appendData("\r\n--\(boundary)--\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
request.setValue("\(body.length)", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Length")
request.HTTPBody = body
let task = NSURLSession.sharedSession().dataTaskWithRequest(request) {
data, response, error in
if error != nil {
print("error=\(error)")
return
}
let responseString = NSString(data: data!, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding)
print("responseString = \(responseString!)")
}
task.resume()
}

UPDATE:
If I try it without:
request.setValue(contentType, forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
I get:
data =<22546865 72652069 73206e6f 20757365 722e22>
response = <NSHTTPURLResponse: 0x7fcd7e184980> { URL: http://www.clip2gether.com/mobile/app/v1/iOS/upload/upload.php } { status code: 200, headers {
"Cache-Control" = "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0";
Connection = close;
"Content-Type" = "text/html; charset=UTF-8";
Date = "Sun, 04 Oct 2015 20:39:26 GMT";
Expires = "Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT";
Pragma = "no-cache";
Server = "Apache/2.4.10";
"Set-Cookie" = "qtrans_cookie_test=1; path=/; domain=www.clip2gether.com";
"Transfer-Encoding" = Identity;
"X-Powered-By" = "PHP/5.6.12";
} }
And if I try it with the line:
request.setValue(contentType, forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
data =<41727261 79417272 61790a28 0a290a77 726f6e67 20666f72 6d617420 666f7220 696d6167 65>
response = <NSHTTPURLResponse: 0x7fdd22f3e660> { URL: http://www.clip2gether.com/mobile/app/v1/iOS/upload/upload.php } { status code: 200, headers {
"Cache-Control" = "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0";
Connection = close;
"Content-Type" = "text/html; charset=UTF-8";
Date = "Sun, 04 Oct 2015 20:46:19 GMT";
Expires = "Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT";
Pragma = "no-cache";
Server = "Apache/2.4.10";
"Set-Cookie" = "qtrans_cookie_test=1; path=/; domain=www.clip2gether.com";
"Transfer-Encoding" = Identity;
"X-Powered-By" = "PHP/5.6.12";
} }
So basically I'm getting the same response with setting the value contentType, as hex-code:
There is no user
and without setting it
ArrayArray

wrong format for image
I searched for hours and finally pieced this working code together using mostly info from this page.
Here's how you can upload an image together with a text parameter to a PHP script and save the image on the server.
Your
body
data is wrong formatted for amultipart/form-data
enctype. Assuming that you want to POST the following fields:username
a text fieldphoto-name
a text fieldphoto-description
a text fieldcontest-photo
a file field(will contain image's binary data)Your body should look like:
You also will have to set the following headers on request:
Content-Length
to the length of bodyContent-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=SwiftBoundary
, here is important that theboundary
string matches the one used in bodyIf you manage to update your request to look like above, you will find your image data under
$_FILES['contest-photo']
Your
send
function should look something like this:
