How to send a photo as parameter

2017-06-17 19:44 Jack imported from Stackoverflow

I have a parameter like "currentPhoto" and link API key as http://someapikey.

A user has to choose a photo from photo library and upload it to this link. I need to send this photo as a parameter.

Example:
The user chose a photo to let's name it as myPhoto. I need to send this photo to link http://someapikey as parameter "currentPhoto": myPhoto.

It should post request.

    You can try this code...

     var strBase64: NSString!
 let image = UIImage(named: "images.jpeg");
 let imageData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image!)! as NSData
 strBase64 = imageData.base64EncodedString(options: .lineLength64Characters) as NSString

 let url: String = "http://someapikey"
 let parameter = ["currentPhoto": strBase64] as [String : Any]

 Alamofire.request(url, method: .post, parameters: parameter, encoding: JSONEncoding.default)
            .responseJSON { response in
                debugPrint(response)
  }

  • Pretty Print a JSON string in Rust

    I have a String let str = String::from_utf8(data.to_vec()).unwrap();

    How do I pretty-print it with newlines and tabs as JSON?

    Essentially I want to do the Rust equivalent of the JavaScript JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(my_string), null, 4);

    This is different than the existing question because I want to parse and then pretty-ify an existing String of JSON, rather than an existing struct.

  • Couchbase Lite 2 + JsonConvert

    The following code sample writes a simple object to a couchbase lite (version 2) database and reads all objects afterwards. This is what you can find in the official documentation here

    This is quite a lot of manual typing since every property of every object must be transferred to the MutableObject.

    class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Couchbase.Lite.Support.NetDesktop.Activate();

        const string DbName = "MyDb";
        var db = new Database(DbName);

        var item = new Item { Name = "test", Value = 5 };

        // Serialization HERE
        var doc = new MutableDocument();
        doc.SetString("Name", item.Name);
        doc.SetInt("Value", item.Value);
        db.Save(doc);

        using (var qry = QueryBuilder.Select(SelectResult.All())
                                     .From(DataSource.Database(db)))
        {
            foreach (var result in qry.Execute())
            {
                var resultItem = new Item
                {
                    // Deserialization HERE
                    Name = result[DbName].Dictionary.GetString("Name"),
                    Value = result[DbName].Dictionary.GetInt("Value")
                };

                Console.WriteLine(resultItem.Name);
            }
        }

        Console.ReadKey();
    }

    class Item
    {
        public string Name { get; set; }
        public int Value { get; set; }
    }
}

    From my research Couchbase lite uses JsonConvert internally, so there might be a way to simplify all that with the help of JsonConvert.

    Anything like:

    var json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(item);
var doc = new MutableDocument(json); // No overload to provide raw JSON

    or maybe

    var data = JsonConvert.SerializeToDict(item); // JsonConvert does not provide this
var doc = new MutableDocument(data);

    Is there or is this some kind of optimization and the preferred approach is by intend?

  • Laravel $request->all() is empty But $_POST returns the actual posted data in the form correctly

    I am injecting the Request in the method as well.

public function test(Request $request) {

  • Not getting JSON object. AngularJS

    I am new in Angular and trying to POST data , but I am getting undefined status. My JSON raw body is like this :

    {
    "Name": "Something",
    "Description": "Something",
    "Data": []
}

    Name and description is from user input field and Data will be used later to push another JSON object in the array.

    I tried but not getting exact output.

    Controller:-

    app.controller('postController', ['$scope', '$http', 'appService', function ($scope, $http, AppService) {

    $scope.addInfos = [{
        Name: $scope.name,
        Description: $scope.description,
        Data: []
    }];
    $scope.Create = function () {
        $scope.addInfos.push({
            'Name': $scope.Name,
            'description': $scope.Description,
            'Data': []
        });
        $scope.dataObj = {
            Name: $scope.name,
            Description: $scope.description,
            Data: []
        };
        $http({
            method: 'POST',
            url: 'http://192.120.27.8:2000/api/Add',
            data: $scope.dataObj
        }).then(function (data, status, headers, config) {
            alert("success");
            console.log(data + $scope.Name + $scope.Description);
        }, function (data, status, headers, config) {
            alert("error");
        });

        $scope.name = '';
        $scope.Description = '';

    };

    HTML page :- 

    <div class="input-group  col-md-10">
    <span class="input-group-addon" id="reg_input" >Name</span>
    <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="" ng-model="addInfos.name">
</div>

<div class="input-group sepH_b col-md-10">
    <span class="input-group-addon" id="reg_input" >Description</span>
    <textarea name="reg_textarea" id="reg_textarea" cols="10" rows="3" class="form-control" ng-model="addInfos.description"></textarea>
</div>

<div class="col-md-4">
    <a style="" class="btn btn-md btn-primary" ng-click="Create(addInfos)">Create</a>
</div>

    The output which I can see in my console is [object Object]. What mistake am I doing here ? NOTE:- Here I didn't mentioned Data: field as it will be predefined array as of now like this {data:[]} need to inject and pass Name and Description in JSON as I mentioned above.

    SECOND also I need to push this over all output data to the Service to store for further use.

  • Send a lot of async REST requests

    I'd like to create a Java-based application which will send 2,000,000 (or more) async REST requests one by one to the server, and wait for all futures.

    1) I'm using the Apache HTTP client:

    <dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
    <artifactId>httpclient</artifactId>
    <version>4.5</version>
</dependency>

    2) My connection manager looks like this:

    public static PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager getConnectionManager() {

    Registry<ConnectionSocketFactory> socketFactoryRegistry = RegistryBuilder
                .<ConnectionSocketFactory> create()
                .register("http", new PlainConnectionSocketFactory())
                .build();

    PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager cm = (socketFactoryRegistry != null) ?
            new PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager(socketFactoryRegistry):
            new PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager();

    // twitter specific options
    cm.setMaxTotal(2000);
    cm.setDefaultMaxPerRoute(200);

    return cm;
}

    3) My async execution looks like this:

    ExecutorService executor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(THREADS_COUNT);

Orders.getInstance().generateOrders();

long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();

executor.invokeAll(... 2 millions of Request );

executor.shutdown();
executor.awaitTermination(Long.MAX_VALUE, TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS);

    4) My callable (request) looks like this:

    public class Request implements Callable<Response> {
    private PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager manager;
    private String url;
    private Order order;

    public Request(PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager manager, String url, Order order) {
        this.manager = manager;
        this.url = url;
        this.order = order;
    }

    @Override
    public Response call() {
        CloseableHttpClient client
                = HttpClients.custom().setConnectionManager(manager)
                .build();
        HttpPost post = createRequest();
        try {
            return new Response(client.execute(post));
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            return null;
        } finally {
            //client.getConnectionManager().shutdown();
        }
    }

    private HttpPost createRequest() {
        HttpPost postRequest = new HttpPost(url);
        StringEntity input = null;
        try {
            input = new StringEntity(order.toJson());
        } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        input.setContentType("application/json");
        postRequest.setEntity(input);

        return postRequest;
    }
}

    Currently the client is just stopping on invokeAll with no reason or exception thrown.

    Maybe somebody has ideas what might be wrong? Or maybe just a different solution?

  • send array of json objects in ios

    I have a post request that has a body like this 

     {
   "cars": [
       {
           "id": 126,
           "drivers": [
                 "xxx@gmail.com"
           ]
       },
       {
           "id": 128,
           "drivers": [
                   "mmm@gmail.com"
           ]
       }
   ]
}

    the id and drivers are changeable, and I got them from another api so how to send this body with the post request?

    on the other hand I have a textField that takes another email of driver, I want to change drivers when this request was sent.

    example:

     {
   "cars": [
       {
           "id": 126,
           "drivers": [
                 "xxx@gmail.com",
                 "sss@gmail.com"
           ]
       },
       {
           "id": 128,
           "drivers": [
                   "mmm@gmail.com"
           ]
       }
   ]
}

    As you can see I want to update the drivers to the new one when I tap add button on the specific textField depends on the id.

    This is my code

    public static func loadDrivers(owners: [Owner], drivers: [Driver], driverEmail: String!, i: Int, completion: @escaping (_ code:Int?)-> Void) {

        para2 = [

            "cars": [
                [
                    "id": owners[i].id,
                    "drivers": [

  • How to send email with not necessary Multiple Attachments from html form in PHP

    I have get value from html form and send via email with multiple attachments. Attachments are not necessary.

    I have got some piece of code to send multiple attachments through mail function in php But my mail sending fails and i dont know why. My attachments are not necessary. This is my code:

    <?php
function multi_attach_mail($to, $subject, $message, $senderMail, $senderName, $files){
    $from = $senderName." <".$senderMail.">";
    $headers = "Siuntėjęs: $from";

    // boundary
    $semi_rand = md5(time());
    $mime_boundary = "==Multipart_Boundary_x{$semi_rand}x";

    // headers for attachment
    $headers .= "\nMIME-Version: 1.0\n" . "Content-Type: multipart/mixed;\n" . " boundary=\"{$mime_boundary}\"";

    // multipart boundary
    $message = "--{$mime_boundary}\n" . "Content-Type: text/html; charset=\"utf-8\"\n" .
    "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n" . $message . "\n\n";

    // preparing attachments
    if(count($files) > 0){
        for($i=0;$i<count($files);$i++){
            if(is_file($files[$i])){
                $message .= "--{$mime_boundary}\n";
                $fp =    @fopen($files[$i],"rb");
                $data =  @fread($fp,filesize($files[$i]));

                @fclose($fp);
                $data = chunk_split(base64_encode($data));
                $message .= "Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name=\"".basename($files[$i])."\"\n" .
                "Content-Description: ".basename($files[$i])."\n" .
                "Content-Disposition: attachment;\n" . " filename=\"".basename($files[$i])."\"; size=".filesize($files[$i]).";\n" .
                "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n\n" . $data . "\n\n";
            }
        }
    }

    $message .= "--{$mime_boundary}--";
    $returnpath = "-f" . $senderMail;

    //send email
    $mail = @mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers, $returnpath);

    //function return true, if email sent, otherwise return fasle
    if($mail){ return TRUE; } else { return FALSE; }

}

    I'm trying to transfer all my pictures and little .mov files to my external hd. I've formatted the hard disk to exfat which should work with apple's mov format and windows. all the jpeg transferred nicely but not the mov. Why? and How do I fix that? Do I have to reformat to HFS?
