PHP - Uploading A File With Json To A Rest Api
I actually have two parts to this post. One which describes just my understanding on how a multipart request should look with a REST API and gives a little context, and the second how to actually implement it using Sympony and api-platform. Part 1 Looking to simultaneously upload a file, some file meta data, and identifier of the uploading user to a REST API, and will do so using a multipart request. Based on swagger, looks like the request should look something like the following: POST /upload HTTP/1.1 Content-Length: 428 Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=abcde12345 --abcde12345 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="id" Content-Type: text/plain 123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426655440000 --abcde12345 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="address" Content-Type: application/json { "street": "3, Garden St", "city": "Hillsbery, UT" } --abcde12345 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="profileImage "; filename="image1.png" Content-Type: application/octet-stream {…file content…} --abcde12345-- Background noise... The above example shows three parts which include the text ID, JSON address and octet-stream file. Doing so doesn't make sense to me and I will probably just have two parts for the meta data JSON. Note that potentially, I will be removing the user from the JSON payload and including it in some JWT header. Also, showing resources as links such as /api/users/1 in the request and response JSON is new to me, but I guess makes sense. Regardless, my meta data JSON will look like: { "projectId": 1234, "documentDescription": "bla bla bla", "specification": "230903.2.4.D", "user": "/api/users/1" } and the response will look like: { "projectId": 1234, "documentDescription": "bla bla bla", "specification": "230903.2.4.D", "uploadAt": "2021-01-27 08:41:17", "fileName": "pressuresensor.pdf". "user": "/api/users/1". "file": "/api/uplodaed_files/1234" } Am I somewhat going down the right path? Part 2 Wow, should have looked into Sympony before now! Entities, validation, the API, etc were a breeze. Still confused with some of the "magic", but understanding what is under the hood more and more. As stated initially, I am utilizing api-platform and am looking at api-platform's file-upload. I guess the first question is whether my POST request with both the file and JSON meta data can be performed in a single request. Per making-a-request-to-the-media_objects-endpoint: QuoteYour /media_objects endpoint is now ready to receive a POST request with a file. This endpoint accepts standard multipart/form-data-encoded data, but not JSON data. What? Am I reading this correct? Do I first need to make a multipart requests using either a standard HTML form or a XMLHttpRequest which just sends the file, receive the document locator, and then send a second request with the location and my meta data? If so, I guess I have enough to go forward. I would rather, however, perform the work in a single request. My previous mentioned swagger multipart-requests shows both in the same request. symfonycasts's api-uploads also describes doing so, but not with api-platform. Is there a way to do so with api-platform? Does it make sense to use api-platform for all other routes but then make a custom route for document with meta data uploads? Any recommendations are much appreciated. Thanks Similar TutorialsHey all So have been working on a file upload script, it was uploading the file but also adding the path name instead of NULL to mysql when no image was to upload, that is now fixed however now it won't upload the actual image to the directory. I tried undoing the mysql changes but it still won't upload the image to the directory. Am testing on my own computer using xampp so no file permission issues, plus it was working before. Any help much appreciated.

ok im stuck again and need help. I have gotten rid of the attachment system(too many issues) on ASF and decided to replace it with my own. The problem is that the original new post form is sent to php via jQuery. Obv i cannot do this with files so the attachment section needs to be a seperate form. Now i have no issues with sending files to the folder and sending their name to the database but i need to send multiple. so far when the user selects a file it will add the name of it to a hidden input element and each one that is added to that element is seperated with | . then in the php i would use explode on this element to get an array of the file names. but this only helps when sending to the database and not when moving files. I also dont want a page refresh when uploading files. No other file upload systems out there will work because they upload the file as soon as you press submit, but then how do i add the post id to the attachments row in the database? I am working on making an album however I am not sure where I am going wrong with my codes. I have an upload and thumbs folder in the albums folder but I keep getting this message.... Warning: mkdir() [function.mkdir]: File exists in /home/ebermy5/public_html/albums/album_func.php on line 44 Warning: mkdir() [function.mkdir]: File exists in /home/ebermy5/public_html/albums/album_func.php on line 45 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/ebermy5/public_html/albums/create_album.php:9) in /home/ebermy5/public_html/albums/create_album.php on line 29 Codes: for line 44 and 45 function create_album($album_name, $album_description){ $album_name = mysql_real_escape_string(htmlentities($album_name)); $album_description = mysql_real_escape_string(htmlentities($album_description)); mysql_query("INSERT INTO `albums` VALUES ('', '".$_SESSION['SESS_ID']."', UNIX_TIMESTAMP(), `$album_name`,`$album_description`)"); mkdir('uploads/'.mysql_insert_id(), 0744); mkdir('uploads/thumbs/'.mysql_insert_id(), 0744); } Code: for line 29 if(isset($_POST['album_name'], $_POST['album_description'])){ $album_name = $_POST['album_name']; $album_description = $_POST['album_description']; $errors = ""; if(empty($album_name) || empty($album_description)){ $errors = 'Album name and description required'; }else{ if(strlen($album_name) > 55 || strlen($album_description) > 255){ $errors = 'One or more fields contains too many characters'; } } if(!empty($errors)){ foreach($errors as $error){ echo $errors, '<br />'; } } else { create_album ($album_name, $album_description); header('Location: albums.php'); exit(); } } ok i added this script in the bottom of my other uploader script.
what i wanted to do was, to upload an imagefile to an folder called uploads
and in the same time add the name of the file to an database called uploads,
together with the next id of another database
i dont get any error msg, the page is just blank.

I have a form with only 1 text box (input type=text) in this textbox I enter a local path on my computer to a specific folder. in this folder I have few files, each has a set name that I know in advance. what I want to do is to be able to upload all those files in my local folder to the server, without making the user click browes and pick them 1 by 1. I searched and searched but I see it's not as simple as I thought cuz I can't just set the value of the input file.. since my page has a form eitherway I thought of maybe doing something sneaky and hiding the input files and some how passing them the path of each file (the folder path will be taken from the not hidden textbox) and the file name is known to me so I can add those 2 somehow.. I can't find a way to do that, so I wonder if any of you have an idea? maybe it's possible to set the file path after the form is submited? basicly I think it's possible to give the name of the file, but I also need the temp name of the file ($_FILES['docfile1']['tmp_name']), and this I don't know how to set.. this is my code for uploading a file with <input type=file> Code: [Select] if ($_FILES['docfile1']['name']!='') { $target = 'import/'; $target = $target . basename($_FILES['docfile1']['name']); if ($target =="import/myfile.xlsx"){ if (file_exists($target)) unlink($target); if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['docfile1']['tmp_name'], $target)) { echo 'success'; }else{ echo 'fail'; } }else{ echo 'fail'; } }desperately need help! Hi, I have a system that uses PHP to create a Word Doc as information is extracted from a table using this code: Code: [Select] header("Content-type: applicaton/save"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="FILE NAME".doc"); header("Pragma: no-cache"); header("Expires: 0"); This part of the system I'm trying to implement is working fine. However, what I would ideally like for it to do (and at this point I understand that it sounds a bit pointless) is to save that downloaded file onto a specified folder location on the server directory i.e. to the uploads folder. This will enable all users of the system to then download / view these files as required. I'm not sure whether this is possible or not but and help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Ben i am using the fancy upload script for post attachments on my forum. the problem is that when a user starts a new post and adds an attachment the attachment is uploaded before the post is complete. so how would i associate the attachment with the post that they are going to post when i have no post id to go off? i had tried not uploading the files straight away and instead populate an input box with the filenames but i cant figure it out with this script. Anyone got any other options or ideas? Hi Everyone, i need some help how can i save this jsonfile to the webserver? my code // Load initial values from JSON 'file' jsonfile = '[{"lane 1":"1","lane 2":"1","lane 3":"5","lane 4":"2"}]'; var initialstate = JSON.parse(jsonfile); setLaneState("lane1",initialstate[0]['lane 1']) setLaneState("lane2",initialstate[0]['lane 2']) setLaneState("lane3",initialstate[0]['lane 3']) setLaneState("lane4",initialstate[0]['lane 4'])
Hi, As I am new to PHP and JSON my Interest in the field pushes me to know further. I have successfully parsed a JSON file: { "birthdays": [ "319507200" :"Kyle", "1390435200" :"Noah", "307843200" :"Carla" ] } Using this PHP file: <?php $jsondata = file_get_contents("birthdays.json"); $json = json_decode($jsondata,true); echo $json["birthdays"][0]['1390435200']; ?> Now I would like to know how to display when Noah’s birthday is, in the form yyyy/MM/dd. Can an expert tell me how this would be done? Thank you :-) Hello I am using curl to get a json file which can be located he (It's way too long to copy paste it): http://www.opap.gr/web/services/rs/betting/availableBetGames/sport/program/4100/0/sport-1.json?localeId=el_GR After that i use json_decode to get the assosiative array.Till here everything seems ok.When i am using var_dump the characters inside the array are in Greek.After that i am using the following code: Code: [Select] class ArrayToXML { public static function toXML( $data, $rootNodeName = 'ResultSet', &$xml=null ) { // turn off compatibility mode as simple xml throws a wobbly if you don't. if ( ini_get('zend.ze1_compatibility_mode') == 1 ) ini_set ( 'zend.ze1_compatibility_mode', 0 ); if ( is_null( $xml ) ) //$xml = simplexml_load_string( "" ); $xml = simplexml_load_string("<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><$rootNodeName />"); // loop through the data passed in. foreach( $data as $key => $value ) { $numeric = false; // no numeric keys in our xml please! if ( is_numeric( $key ) ) { $numeric = 1; $key = $rootNodeName; } // delete any char not allowed in XML element names `enter code here`$key = preg_replace('/[^a-z0-9\-\_\.\:]/i', '', $key); // if there is another array found recrusively call this function if ( is_array( $value ) ) { $node = ArrayToXML::isAssoc( $value ) || $numeric ? $xml->addChild( $key ) : $xml; // recrusive call. if ( $numeric ) $key = 'anon'; ArrayToXML::toXml( $value, $key, $node ); } else { // add single node. $value = htmlentities( $value ); $xml->addChild( $key, $value ); } } // pass back as XML return $xml->asXML(); } public static function isAssoc( $array ) { return (is_array($array) && 0 !== count(array_diff_key($array, array_keys(array_keys($array))))); } And here comes the problem .All the greek characters inside the result are in some strange characters Code: [Select] Î?Î?Î¥Î?Î?ΡΩΣÎ?Î? for example.I really don't know what am i doing wrong.I am really bad with encoding /decoding things . Thanks in advance for your replies.

I think the form and the following JavaScript code are set up correctly, but I'm running into problems with the PHP code at the end. I'm especially confused by the JSON reference at the very end; I don't have a clue what it means or what do do with it.
Does anyone know how to fix/complete this script?
On another note, why is it necessary to use JSON in the first place? Aren't the answers already provided in the PHP code (e.g. $answer1 = $_POST['A']?
Thanks.

I'm doing an is_uploaded_file check and getting a successful response, but the document is not actually being uploaded to the server. Can anyone help?? Please see code below: Code: [Select] $filename = $_FILES['activity_doc']['name']; // Name of the file (including file extension). $upload_path = https://upload_url //Curl session initialized $session = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible;)"); curl_setopt($session, CURLOPT_URL, $upload_path); curl_setopt($session, CURLOPT_USERPWD, 'username:password'); curl_setopt($session, CURLOPT_POST, 1); $post = array( "file_box"=>"@" . $filename, ); curl_setopt($session, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post); $response = curl_exec($session); if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['activity_doc']['tmp_name'])) { echo "File ". $_FILES['activity_doc']['name'] ." uploaded successfully.\n"; } else { echo "Error occurred, file uploaded unsuccessful"; } $req = new SimpleXMLElement($response); print_r($req); curl_close($session); I'm trying to use the ZipArchive class and it works on my localhost but when I upload the script and try to use it on my website it can't find the ZipArchive class. How do I install this on my remote host? Also on my localhost it seems like I can only directories of a certain size. When the directory is to big nothing happens. I'm having a problem with using cURL or php ftp to write or create files remotely. Is there a way I can use cURL or php ftp and set the file permissions while it's being uploaded? I'm on a windows server so I can't change the file permissions through ftp_chmod. How else can I get around this so I can write/create files remotely. Thanks! |
