In Android, I am making an HTTP file upload request to a server as follows
MultipartRequest multipartRequest = new MultipartRequest(uploadUrl, null, mimeType, multipartBody, new Response.Listener<NetworkResponse>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(NetworkResponse response) {
// Need to read Json response here
}
}, new Response.ErrorListener() {
#Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
Log.d(GlobalClass.TAG, "File not uploaded");
}
});
GlobalClass.getInstance().addToRequestQueue(multipartRequest);
}
The response is of the following structure:
{
'response': 'some_data_to_be_used'
}
And this is my MultipartRequest class:
package com.xxxxxx.xxxxxx;
import android.util.Log;
import com.android.volley.AuthFailureError;
import com.android.volley.NetworkResponse;
import com.android.volley.ParseError;
import com.android.volley.Request;
import com.android.volley.Response;
import com.android.volley.VolleyError;
import com.android.volley.toolbox.HttpHeaderParser;
import java.util.Map;
class MultipartRequest extends Request<NetworkResponse> {
private final Response.Listener<NetworkResponse> mListener;
private final Response.ErrorListener mErrorListener;
private final Map<String, String> mHeaders;
private final String mMimeType;
private final byte[] mMultipartBody;
public MultipartRequest(String url, Map<String, String> headers, String mimeType, byte[] multipartBody, Response.Listener<NetworkResponse> listener, Response.ErrorListener errorListener) {
super(Method.POST, url, errorListener);
this.mListener = listener;
this.mErrorListener = errorListener;
this.mHeaders = headers;
this.mMimeType = mimeType;
this.mMultipartBody = multipartBody;
}
#Override
public Map<String, String> getHeaders() throws AuthFailureError {
return (mHeaders != null) ? mHeaders : super.getHeaders();
}
#Override
public String getBodyContentType() {
return mMimeType;
}
#Override
public byte[] getBody() throws AuthFailureError {
return mMultipartBody;
}
#Override
protected Response<NetworkResponse> parseNetworkResponse(NetworkResponse response) {
try {
return Response.success(
response,
HttpHeaderParser.parseCacheHeaders(response));
} catch (Exception e) {
return Response.error(new ParseError(e));
}
}
#Override
protected void deliverResponse(NetworkResponse response) {
Log.d(GlobalClass.TAG, response.toString());
mListener.onResponse(response);
}
#Override
public void deliverError(VolleyError error) {
mErrorListener.onErrorResponse(error);
}
}
In my parseNetworkResponse method, I've tried the following:
protected Response<NetworkResponse> parseNetworkResponse(NetworkResponse response) {
try {
Log.d(GlobalClass.TAG, response.toString());
String json = new String(response.data, HttpHeaderParser.parseCacheHeaders(response));
return Response.success(
response,
HttpHeaderParser.parseCacheHeaders(response));
} catch (Exception e) {
return Response.error(new ParseError(e));
}
}
Which I got from here.
But this gives me the error Cannot resolve constructor String(byte[],com.android.volley.Cache.Entry).
How do I read the JSON response object and use the value of the response key as a string?
Update
As mentioned in the link you provided, you should change this line :
String json = new String(response.data, HttpHeaderParser.parseCacheHeaders(response));
to
String json = new String(response.data, HttpHeaderParser.parseCharset(response.headers));
This is because String class doesn't have any contructor that matches the one you used in your code,
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 found this, but doesn't work to me: http://develop-for-android.blogspot.com.br/2014/01/using-volley-in-your-application.html

i am not much familier with volley, but give a try to the following code

If it works for you mark it as right :)
You have to extend Request and use MultipartEntityBuilder if you wanna upload your image as a file.
public class ImageUploadWithVolley<T> extends Request<T> {
private MultipartEntityBuilder mBuilder = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();
private final Response.Listener<T> mListener;
private final File yourImageFile;
protected Map<String, String> headers;
public ImageUploadWithVolley(String url, ErrorListener errorListener, Listener<T> listener, File imageFile) {
super(Method.POST, url, errorListener);
mListener = listener;
yourImageFile = imageFile;
addImageEntity();
}
#Override
public Map<String, String> getHeaders() throws AuthFailureError {
Map<String, String> headers = super.getHeaders();
if (headers == null
|| headers.equals(Collections.emptyMap())) {
headers = new HashMap<String, String>();
}
headers.put("Accept", "application/json");
return headers;
}
private void addImageEntity() {
mBuilder.addBinaryBody("give your image name", yourImageFile, ContentType.create("image/jpeg"), yourImageFile.getName());
mBuilder.setMode(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);
mBuilder.setLaxMode().setBoundary("xx").setCharset(Charset.forName("UTF-8"));
}
#Override
public String getBodyContentType() {
String content = mBuilder.build().getContentType().getValue();
return content;
}
#Override
public byte[] getBody() throws AuthFailureError {
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
try {
mBuilder.build().writeTo(bos);
} catch (IOException e){
VolleyLog.e("IOException writing to ByteArrayOutputStream bos, building the multipart request.");
}
return bos.toByteArray();
}
#Override
protected Response<T> parseNetworkResponse(NetworkResponse response){
T result = null;
return Response.success(result, HttpHeaderParser.parseCacheHeaders(response));
}
#Override
protected void deliverResponse(T response) {
mListener.onResponse(response);

In my project I am use 3 layers: Activity, DAO and Web Service Transaction, layer Web Service Transaction has HttpClient to execute Get and Post in my web service.
An example to understand:
//structure
send: Activity->DAO->WebService
response: WebService->DAO->Activity
These works, but I'm using Threads and I don't want to use anymore threads. I want knows if there any way to create a generic AsyncTask that can return Boolean and List ?
Looking for a solution I founded this: Want to create a Generic AsyncTask but doesn't work to me, or I can't understand how this works.
How can I do to AsyncTask works in 3 layers as my project ?
So, here my real structure;

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:
If you don't want to use deprecated HttpEntity, here is my working sample code (tested with ASP.Net WebAPI)

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);
}
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

final Map<String, String> headerParams,
final Response.Listener<String> resultDelivery,
final Response.ErrorListener errorListener,
MultipartProgressListener progListener) {

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);
}
