byte[] byte_arr = stream.toByteArray();
String imageStr = Base64.encodeToString(byte_arr, 1);
return imageStr;
}

you are using Base64 formate to upload which is not efficient way Case encoded Base64 string's length increase more than original one . You can upload image both Base64 way and Multi part way .I prefer multi-part process . I think below snap-net code gonna help you.

How to upload image using volley with header token android

I have an image and I want to upload this image to my web service using Volley library, the problem is I'm looking for a how to do it but still haven't found.
I am trying to upload image with Volley Multipart Request but I am not get success response from server but when I upload image using postman it's return success. This is my postman screenshot.
I search relate this but not get any idea.
below is my code
private void uploadMedia(final String token) {

try {
JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(new String(response.data));
Log.e("response",obj+"");
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
},

NetworkResponse response = error.networkResponse;
if (error instanceof ServerError && response != null) {
try {
String res = new String(response.data,
HttpHeaderParser.parseCharset(response.headers, "utf-8"));
// Now you can use any deserializer to make sense of data
JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(res);
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e1) {
// Couldn't properly decode data to string
e1.printStackTrace();
} catch (JSONException e2) {
// returned data is not JSONObject?
e2.printStackTrace();

volleyMultipartRequest.setRetryPolicy(new DefaultRetryPolicy(

bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0, bufferSize);

And called this helper like this:
VolleyMultiPartRequest volleyMultipartRequest = new VolleyMultiPartRequest(Request.Method.POST, Api.UPLOAD_FILE,
new Response.Listener<NetworkResponse>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(NetworkResponse response) {
try {
JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(new String(response.data));
Toast.makeText(context, obj.getString("message"), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
successCallBack.onSuccess(obj);
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
},
new Response.ErrorListener() {
#Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
Toast.makeText(context, error.getMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
try {
errorCallBack.onError(new JSONObject(""));
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}, context) {
/*
* If you want to add more parameters with the image
* you can do it here
* here we have only one parameter with the image
* which is tags
* */
#Override
protected Map<String, String> getParams() throws AuthFailureError {
Map<String, String> params = new HashMap<>();
params.put("file_for", "post");
params.put("file_type", "image");
return params;
}
/*
* Here we are passing image by renaming it with a unique name
* */
#Override
protected Map<String, DataPart> getByteData() {
Map<String, DataPart> params = new HashMap<>();
long imagename = System.currentTimeMillis();
params.put("images[]", new DataPart(imagename + ".png", getFileDataFromDrawable(bitmap)));
return params;
}
};
I'm getting server error as a response.
I tried different tutorials but didn't find the exact way and easy solution.
In the postman, headers and params are like this, there are an array of images, you can see in photos attached (8 photos). I want to do exact same API call using volley library.

Try this code:

How to upload (put) image using Volley [duplicate]

Has anyone been able to accomplish sending a multipart/form-data POST in Android with Volley yet? I have had no success trying to upload an image/png using a POST request to our server and am curious if anyone has.
I believe the default way to do this would be to override public byte[] getPostBody() in the Request.java class and attach the File there with a blank Header key for the boundary. However, converting my file to a String for the Map<String, String> postParams and then having it encoded again seems obtuse and not really elegant. Also I've been unsuccessful in my attempts. This is really the only thing holding us back from switching to this library.
Anyway, all thoughts and answers are extremely appreciated. Thank you for your help.

I might be wrong on this but I think you need to implement your own com.android.volley.toolbox.HttpStack for this because the default ones (HurlStack if version > Gingerbread or HttpClientStack) don't deal with multipart/form-data.
Edit:
And indeed I was wrong. I was able to do it using MultipartEntity in Request like this:
public class MultipartRequest extends Request<String> {
private MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity();
private static final String FILE_PART_NAME = "file";
private static final String STRING_PART_NAME = "text";
private final Response.Listener<String> mListener;
private final File mFilePart;
private final String mStringPart;
public MultipartRequest(String url, Response.ErrorListener errorListener, Response.Listener<String> listener, File file, String stringPart)
{
super(Method.POST, url, errorListener);
mListener = listener;
mFilePart = file;
mStringPart = stringPart;
buildMultipartEntity();
}
private void buildMultipartEntity()
{
entity.addPart(FILE_PART_NAME, new FileBody(mFilePart));
try
{
entity.addPart(STRING_PART_NAME, new StringBody(mStringPart));
}
catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e)
{
VolleyLog.e("UnsupportedEncodingException");
}
}
#Override
public String getBodyContentType()
{
return entity.getContentType().getValue();
}
#Override
public byte[] getBody() throws AuthFailureError
{
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
try
{
entity.writeTo(bos);
}
catch (IOException e)
{
VolleyLog.e("IOException writing to ByteArrayOutputStream");
}
return bos.toByteArray();
}
#Override
protected Response<String> parseNetworkResponse(NetworkResponse response)
{
return Response.success("Uploaded", getCacheEntry());
}
#Override
protected void deliverResponse(String response)
{
mListener.onResponse(response);
}
}
It's pretty raw but I tried it with an image and a simple string and it works. The response is a placeholder, doesn't make much sense to return a Response String in this case. I had problems using apache httpmime to use MultipartEntity so I used this https://code.google.com/p/httpclientandroidlib/ don't know if there's a better way.
Hope it helps.
Edit
You can use httpmime without using httpclientandroidlib, the only dependency is httpcore.

As mentioned in the presentation at the I/O (about 4:05), Volley "is terrible" for large payloads. As I understand it that means not to use Volley for receiving/sending (big) files. Looking at the code it seems that it is not even designed to handle multipart form data (e.g. Request.java has getBodyContentType() with hardcoded "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"; HttpClientStack::createHttpRequest() can handle only byte[], etc...). Probably you will be able to create implementation that can handle multipart but If I were you I will just use HttpClient directly with MultipartEntity like:
HttpPost req = new HttpPost(composeTargetUrl());
MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity();
entity.addPart(POST_IMAGE_VAR_NAME, new FileBody(toUpload));
try {
entity.addPart(POST_SESSION_VAR_NAME, new StringBody(uploadSessionId));
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
req.setEntity(entity);
You may need newer HttpClient (i.e. not the built-in) or even better, use Volley with newer HttpClient

A very simple approach for the dev who just want to send POST parameters in multipart request.
Make the following changes in class which extends Request.java
First define these constants :
String BOUNDARY = "s2retfgsGSRFsERFGHfgdfgw734yhFHW567TYHSrf4yarg"; //This the boundary which is used by the server to split the post parameters.
String MULTIPART_FORMDATA = "multipart/form-data;boundary=" + BOUNDARY;
Add a helper function to create a post body for you :
private String createPostBody(Map<String, String> params) {
StringBuilder sbPost = new StringBuilder();
if (params != null) {
for (String key : params.keySet()) {
if (params.get(key) != null) {
sbPost.append("\r\n" + "--" + BOUNDARY + "\r\n");
sbPost.append("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"" + key + "\"" + "\r\n\r\n");
sbPost.append(params.get(key).toString());
}
}
}
return sbPost.toString();
}
Override getBody() and getBodyContentType
public String getBodyContentType() {
return MULTIPART_FORMDATA;
}
public byte[] getBody() throws AuthFailureError {
return createPostBody(getParams()).getBytes();
}

First answer on SO.
I have encountered the same problem and found #alex 's code very helpful. I have made some simple modifications in order to pass in as many parameters as needed through HashMap, and have basically copied parseNetworkResponse() from StringRequest. I have searched online and so surprised to find out that such a common task is so rarely answered. Anyway, I wish the code could help:
public class MultipartRequest extends Request<String> {
private MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity();
private static final String FILE_PART_NAME = "image";
private final Response.Listener<String> mListener;
private final File file;
private final HashMap<String, String> params;
public MultipartRequest(String url, Response.Listener<String> listener, Response.ErrorListener errorListener, File file, HashMap<String, String> params)
{
super(Method.POST, url, errorListener);
mListener = listener;
this.file = file;
this.params = params;
buildMultipartEntity();
}
private void buildMultipartEntity()
{
entity.addPart(FILE_PART_NAME, new FileBody(file));
try
{
for ( String key : params.keySet() ) {
entity.addPart(key, new StringBody(params.get(key)));
}
}
catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e)
{
VolleyLog.e("UnsupportedEncodingException");
}
}
#Override
public String getBodyContentType()
{
return entity.getContentType().getValue();
}
#Override
public byte[] getBody() throws AuthFailureError
{
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
try
{
entity.writeTo(bos);
}
catch (IOException e)
{
VolleyLog.e("IOException writing to ByteArrayOutputStream");
}
return bos.toByteArray();
}
/**
* copied from Android StringRequest class
*/
#Override
protected Response<String> parseNetworkResponse(NetworkResponse response) {
String parsed;
try {
parsed = new String(response.data, HttpHeaderParser.parseCharset(response.headers));
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
parsed = new String(response.data);
}
return Response.success(parsed, HttpHeaderParser.parseCacheHeaders(response));
}
#Override
protected void deliverResponse(String response)
{
mListener.onResponse(response);
}
And you may use the class as following:
HashMap<String, String> params = new HashMap<String, String>();
params.put("type", "Some Param");
params.put("location", "Some Param");
params.put("contact", "Some Param");
MultipartRequest mr = new MultipartRequest(url, new Response.Listener<String>(){
#Override
public void onResponse(String response) {
Log.d("response", response);
}
}, new Response.ErrorListener(){
#Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
Log.e("Volley Request Error", error.getLocalizedMessage());
}
}, f, params);
Volley.newRequestQueue(this).add(mr);

Another solution, very light with high performance with payload large:
Android Asynchronous Http Client library:
http://loopj.com/android-async-http/
private static AsyncHttpClient client = new AsyncHttpClient();
private void uploadFileExecute(File file) {
RequestParams params = new RequestParams();
try { params.put("photo", file); } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {}
client.post(getUrl(), params,
new AsyncHttpResponseHandler() {
public void onSuccess(String result) {
Log.d(TAG,"uploadFile response: "+result);
};
public void onFailure(Throwable arg0, String errorMsg) {
Log.d(TAG,"uploadFile ERROR!");
};
}
);
}

Here is Simple Solution And Complete Example for Uploading File Using Volley Android
1) Gradle Import
compile 'dev.dworks.libs:volleyplus:+'
2)Now Create a Class RequestManager
public class RequestManager {
private static RequestManager mRequestManager;
/**
* Queue which Manages the Network Requests :-)
*/
private static RequestQueue mRequestQueue;
// ImageLoader Instance
private RequestManager() {
}
public static RequestManager get(Context context) {
if (mRequestManager == null)
mRequestManager = new RequestManager();
return mRequestManager;
}
/**
* #param context application context
*/
public static RequestQueue getnstance(Context context) {
if (mRequestQueue == null) {
mRequestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(context);
}
return mRequestQueue;
}
}
3)Now Create a Class to handle Request for uploading File WebService
public class WebService {
private RequestQueue mRequestQueue;
private static WebService apiRequests = null;
public static WebService getInstance() {
if (apiRequests == null) {
apiRequests = new WebService();
return apiRequests;
}
return apiRequests;
}
public void updateProfile(Context context, String doc_name, String doc_type, String appliance_id, File file, Response.Listener<String> listener, Response.ErrorListener errorListener) {
SimpleMultiPartRequest request = new SimpleMultiPartRequest(Request.Method.POST, "YOUR URL HERE", listener, errorListener);
// request.setParams(data);
mRequestQueue = RequestManager.getnstance(context);
request.addMultipartParam("token", "text", "tdfysghfhsdfh");
request.addMultipartParam("parameter_1", "text", doc_name);
request.addMultipartParam("dparameter_2", "text", doc_type);
request.addMultipartParam("parameter_3", "text", appliance_id);
request.addFile("document_file", file.getPath());
request.setFixedStreamingMode(true);
mRequestQueue.add(request);
}
}
4) And Now Call The method Like This to Hit the service
public class Main2Activity extends AppCompatActivity implements Response.ErrorListener, Response.Listener<String>{
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main2);
Button button=(Button)findViewById(R.id.button);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
uploadData();
}
});
}
private void uploadData() {
WebService.getInstance().updateProfile(getActivity(), "appl_doc", "appliance", "1", mChoosenFile, this, this);
}
#Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
}
#Override
public void onResponse(String response) {
//Your response here
}
}

This is my way of doing it. It may be useful to others :
private void updateType(){
// Log.i(TAG,"updateType");
StringRequest request = new StringRequest(Request.Method.POST, url, new Response.Listener<String>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(String response) {
// running on main thread-------
try {
JSONObject res = new JSONObject(response);
res.getString("result");
System.out.println("Response:" + res.getString("result"));
}else{
CustomTast ct=new CustomTast(context);
ct.showCustomAlert("Network/Server Disconnected",R.drawable.disconnect);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
//Log.e("Response", "==> " + e.getMessage());
}
}
}, new Response.ErrorListener() {
#Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError volleyError) {
// running on main thread-------
VolleyLog.d(TAG, "Error: " + volleyError.getMessage());
}
}) {
protected Map<String, String> getParams() {
HashMap<String, String> hashMapParams = new HashMap<String, String>();
hashMapParams.put("key", "value");
hashMapParams.put("key", "value");
hashMapParams.put("key", "value"));
hashMapParams.put("key", "value");
System.out.println("Hashmap:" + hashMapParams);
return hashMapParams;
}
};
AppController.getInstance().addToRequestQueue(request);
}

How to send a “multipart/form-data” POST in Android with Volley

Has anyone been able to accomplish sending a multipart/form-data POST in Android with Volley yet? I have had no success trying to upload an image/png using a POST request to our server and am curious if anyone has.
I believe the default way to do this would be to override public byte[] getPostBody() in the Request.java class and attach the File there with a blank Header key for the boundary. However, converting my file to a String for the Map<String, String> postParams and then having it encoded again seems obtuse and not really elegant. Also I've been unsuccessful in my attempts. This is really the only thing holding us back from switching to this library.
Anyway, all thoughts and answers are extremely appreciated. Thank you for your help.

I might be wrong on this but I think you need to implement your own com.android.volley.toolbox.HttpStack for this because the default ones (HurlStack if version > Gingerbread or HttpClientStack) don't deal with multipart/form-data.
Edit:
And indeed I was wrong. I was able to do it using MultipartEntity in Request like this:
public class MultipartRequest extends Request<String> {
private MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity();
private static final String FILE_PART_NAME = "file";
private static final String STRING_PART_NAME = "text";
private final Response.Listener<String> mListener;
private final File mFilePart;
private final String mStringPart;
public MultipartRequest(String url, Response.ErrorListener errorListener, Response.Listener<String> listener, File file, String stringPart)
{
super(Method.POST, url, errorListener);
mListener = listener;
mFilePart = file;
mStringPart = stringPart;
buildMultipartEntity();
}
private void buildMultipartEntity()
{
entity.addPart(FILE_PART_NAME, new FileBody(mFilePart));
try
{
entity.addPart(STRING_PART_NAME, new StringBody(mStringPart));
}
catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e)
{
VolleyLog.e("UnsupportedEncodingException");
}
}
#Override
public String getBodyContentType()
{
return entity.getContentType().getValue();
}
#Override
public byte[] getBody() throws AuthFailureError
{
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
try
{
entity.writeTo(bos);
}
catch (IOException e)
{
VolleyLog.e("IOException writing to ByteArrayOutputStream");
}
return bos.toByteArray();
}
#Override
protected Response<String> parseNetworkResponse(NetworkResponse response)
{
return Response.success("Uploaded", getCacheEntry());
}
#Override
protected void deliverResponse(String response)
{
mListener.onResponse(response);
}
}
It's pretty raw but I tried it with an image and a simple string and it works. The response is a placeholder, doesn't make much sense to return a Response String in this case. I had problems using apache httpmime to use MultipartEntity so I used this https://code.google.com/p/httpclientandroidlib/ don't know if there's a better way.
Hope it helps.
Edit
You can use httpmime without using httpclientandroidlib, the only dependency is httpcore.

As mentioned in the presentation at the I/O (about 4:05), Volley "is terrible" for large payloads. As I understand it that means not to use Volley for receiving/sending (big) files. Looking at the code it seems that it is not even designed to handle multipart form data (e.g. Request.java has getBodyContentType() with hardcoded "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"; HttpClientStack::createHttpRequest() can handle only byte[], etc...). Probably you will be able to create implementation that can handle multipart but If I were you I will just use HttpClient directly with MultipartEntity like:
HttpPost req = new HttpPost(composeTargetUrl());
MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity();
entity.addPart(POST_IMAGE_VAR_NAME, new FileBody(toUpload));
try {
entity.addPart(POST_SESSION_VAR_NAME, new StringBody(uploadSessionId));
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
req.setEntity(entity);
You may need newer HttpClient (i.e. not the built-in) or even better, use Volley with newer HttpClient

UPDATE 2015/08/26:

A very simple approach for the dev who just want to send POST parameters in multipart request.
Make the following changes in class which extends Request.java
First define these constants :
String BOUNDARY = "s2retfgsGSRFsERFGHfgdfgw734yhFHW567TYHSrf4yarg"; //This the boundary which is used by the server to split the post parameters.
String MULTIPART_FORMDATA = "multipart/form-data;boundary=" + BOUNDARY;
Add a helper function to create a post body for you :
private String createPostBody(Map<String, String> params) {
StringBuilder sbPost = new StringBuilder();
if (params != null) {
for (String key : params.keySet()) {
if (params.get(key) != null) {
sbPost.append("\r\n" + "--" + BOUNDARY + "\r\n");
sbPost.append("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"" + key + "\"" + "\r\n\r\n");
sbPost.append(params.get(key).toString());
}
}
}
return sbPost.toString();
}
Override getBody() and getBodyContentType
public String getBodyContentType() {
return MULTIPART_FORMDATA;
}
public byte[] getBody() throws AuthFailureError {
return createPostBody(getParams()).getBytes();
}

First answer on SO.
I have encountered the same problem and found #alex 's code very helpful. I have made some simple modifications in order to pass in as many parameters as needed through HashMap, and have basically copied parseNetworkResponse() from StringRequest. I have searched online and so surprised to find out that such a common task is so rarely answered. Anyway, I wish the code could help:
public class MultipartRequest extends Request<String> {
private MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity();
private static final String FILE_PART_NAME = "image";
private final Response.Listener<String> mListener;
private final File file;
private final HashMap<String, String> params;
public MultipartRequest(String url, Response.Listener<String> listener, Response.ErrorListener errorListener, File file, HashMap<String, String> params)
{
super(Method.POST, url, errorListener);
mListener = listener;
this.file = file;
this.params = params;
buildMultipartEntity();
}
private void buildMultipartEntity()
{
entity.addPart(FILE_PART_NAME, new FileBody(file));
try
{
for ( String key : params.keySet() ) {
entity.addPart(key, new StringBody(params.get(key)));
}
}
catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e)
{
VolleyLog.e("UnsupportedEncodingException");
}
}
#Override
public String getBodyContentType()
{
return entity.getContentType().getValue();
}
#Override
public byte[] getBody() throws AuthFailureError
{
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
try
{
entity.writeTo(bos);
}
catch (IOException e)
{
VolleyLog.e("IOException writing to ByteArrayOutputStream");
}
return bos.toByteArray();
}
/**
* copied from Android StringRequest class
*/
#Override
protected Response<String> parseNetworkResponse(NetworkResponse response) {
String parsed;
try {
parsed = new String(response.data, HttpHeaderParser.parseCharset(response.headers));
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
parsed = new String(response.data);
}
return Response.success(parsed, HttpHeaderParser.parseCacheHeaders(response));
}
#Override
protected void deliverResponse(String response)
{
mListener.onResponse(response);
}
And you may use the class as following:
HashMap<String, String> params = new HashMap<String, String>();
params.put("type", "Some Param");
params.put("location", "Some Param");
params.put("contact", "Some Param");
MultipartRequest mr = new MultipartRequest(url, new Response.Listener<String>(){
#Override
public void onResponse(String response) {
Log.d("response", response);
}
}, new Response.ErrorListener(){
#Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
Log.e("Volley Request Error", error.getLocalizedMessage());
}
}, f, params);
Volley.newRequestQueue(this).add(mr);

Another solution, very light with high performance with payload large:
Android Asynchronous Http Client library:
http://loopj.com/android-async-http/
private static AsyncHttpClient client = new AsyncHttpClient();
private void uploadFileExecute(File file) {
RequestParams params = new RequestParams();
try { params.put("photo", file); } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {}
client.post(getUrl(), params,
new AsyncHttpResponseHandler() {
public void onSuccess(String result) {
Log.d(TAG,"uploadFile response: "+result);
};
public void onFailure(Throwable arg0, String errorMsg) {
Log.d(TAG,"uploadFile ERROR!");
};
}
);
}

Here is Simple Solution And Complete Example for Uploading File Using Volley Android
1) Gradle Import
compile 'dev.dworks.libs:volleyplus:+'
2)Now Create a Class RequestManager
public class RequestManager {
private static RequestManager mRequestManager;
/**
* Queue which Manages the Network Requests :-)
*/
private static RequestQueue mRequestQueue;
// ImageLoader Instance
private RequestManager() {
}
public static RequestManager get(Context context) {
if (mRequestManager == null)
mRequestManager = new RequestManager();
return mRequestManager;
}
/**
* #param context application context
*/
public static RequestQueue getnstance(Context context) {
if (mRequestQueue == null) {
mRequestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(context);
}
return mRequestQueue;
}
}
3)Now Create a Class to handle Request for uploading File WebService
public class WebService {
private RequestQueue mRequestQueue;
private static WebService apiRequests = null;
public static WebService getInstance() {
if (apiRequests == null) {
apiRequests = new WebService();
return apiRequests;
}
return apiRequests;
}
public void updateProfile(Context context, String doc_name, String doc_type, String appliance_id, File file, Response.Listener<String> listener, Response.ErrorListener errorListener) {
SimpleMultiPartRequest request = new SimpleMultiPartRequest(Request.Method.POST, "YOUR URL HERE", listener, errorListener);
// request.setParams(data);
mRequestQueue = RequestManager.getnstance(context);
request.addMultipartParam("token", "text", "tdfysghfhsdfh");
request.addMultipartParam("parameter_1", "text", doc_name);
request.addMultipartParam("dparameter_2", "text", doc_type);
request.addMultipartParam("parameter_3", "text", appliance_id);
request.addFile("document_file", file.getPath());
request.setFixedStreamingMode(true);
mRequestQueue.add(request);
}
}
4) And Now Call The method Like This to Hit the service
public class Main2Activity extends AppCompatActivity implements Response.ErrorListener, Response.Listener<String>{
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main2);
Button button=(Button)findViewById(R.id.button);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
uploadData();
}
});
}
private void uploadData() {
WebService.getInstance().updateProfile(getActivity(), "appl_doc", "appliance", "1", mChoosenFile, this, this);
}
#Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
}
#Override
public void onResponse(String response) {
//Your response here
}
}

This is my way of doing it. It may be useful to others :
private void updateType(){
// Log.i(TAG,"updateType");
StringRequest request = new StringRequest(Request.Method.POST, url, new Response.Listener<String>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(String response) {
// running on main thread-------
try {
JSONObject res = new JSONObject(response);
res.getString("result");
System.out.println("Response:" + res.getString("result"));
}else{
CustomTast ct=new CustomTast(context);
ct.showCustomAlert("Network/Server Disconnected",R.drawable.disconnect);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
//Log.e("Response", "==> " + e.getMessage());
}
}
}, new Response.ErrorListener() {
#Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError volleyError) {
// running on main thread-------
VolleyLog.d(TAG, "Error: " + volleyError.getMessage());
}
}) {
protected Map<String, String> getParams() {
HashMap<String, String> hashMapParams = new HashMap<String, String>();
hashMapParams.put("key", "value");
hashMapParams.put("key", "value");
hashMapParams.put("key", "value"));
hashMapParams.put("key", "value");
System.out.println("Hashmap:" + hashMapParams);
return hashMapParams;
}
};
AppController.getInstance().addToRequestQueue(request);
}
