I'm trying to send/upload image file to my back-end serve using fetch multipart upload in react-native, but fetch multipart form data upload is not working for android, however I tried different examples.
Image upload multipart form data API is based on php and its working for iOS react-native app.
I am using react-native-photo-upload library for taking image.
storePicture(PicturePath:string) {
console.warn(PicturePath);
if (PicturePath) {
const apiUrl = `${Constants.APIHOST}updateprofileimage.php`;
// Create the form data object
var data = new FormData();
data.append('profileimage', { uri:PicturePath, name: 'profileimage.jpg', type: 'image/jpg/jpeg' });
data.append('accesstoken', this.state.user.sAccessToken);
data.append('react-native', 1);
// Create the config object for the POST // You typically have an OAuth2 token that you use for authentication
const config = { method: 'POST', headers: { Accept: 'application/json', 'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data;' }, body: data };
fetch(apiUrl, config)
.then(responseData => { // Log the response form the server
// Here we get what we sent to Postman back
console.warn(`response:${responseData}`);
})
.catch(err => {
console.warn(err);
});
}}
Here is the example how I am calling storePicture() function.
<PhotoUpload onResizedImageUri={
avatar => {
if (avatar) {
this.storePicture(avatar.path);
}
}}
>
<Image source={{uri: this.state.user.sProfileImageUrl}} style={{resizeMode:"cover", marginTop:8.0, backgroundColor:'transparent', height:120.0, width:120, borderRadius:60.0, borderWidth:0.0, borderColor:'transparent'}}/>
</PhotoUpload>
uploadProfileImage = async (image:var) => {
this.setState({
loading: true
});
var RNFS = require('react-native-fs');
const path = Style.IS_IOS ? image.uri : image.path;
var fileName = path.split('/').pop();
var fileType = fileName.split('.').pop();
var filePath = Style.IS_IOS ? path : 'file://' + path;
const apiURL = `${Constants.APIHOST}updateprofileimage.php`;
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('accesstoken', this.state.user.sAccessToken);
formData.append('reactnative', 1);
formData.append('profileimage', {
uri:filePath,
name: fileName,
type: `image/${fileType}`,
});
try {
const response = await fetch(apiURL, {
body: formData,
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data',
'Accept': 'application/json',
},
})
const json = await response.json()
this.handleUploadImageResponse(json);
} catch (err) {
this.setState({
loading: false
},console.log('catch Error: '+ err));
}
}
