在iOS / Objective-C上的一个请求中将字符串和图像，音频，视频发送到服务器

Question

I want to send information as well as multimedia files (if found). All are saved in both NSString and NSData, with a single HTTP request. Information and multimedia files are not appended successfully in the body. I can send the information successfully, but I can't send the multimedia files with it in a single HTTP request.

Answer 1

i use AFNetworking and this is working

AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];

NSDictionary *parameters = @{@"value1": @"value1",
                             @"value2": @"value2",
                             @"value3": @"value1",
                             };
// BASIC AUTH (if you need):
manager.securityPolicy.allowInvalidCertificates = YES;
manager.requestSerializer = [AFHTTPRequestSerializer serializer];
//[manager.requestSerializer setAuthorizationHeaderFieldWithUsername:@"foo" password:@"bar"];
// BASIC AUTH END

NSString *URLString = @"php file";

/// !!! only jpg, have to cover png as well
manager.requestSerializer = [AFHTTPRequestSerializer serializer];
manager.responseSerializer = [AFHTTPResponseSerializer serializer];

manager.responseSerializer.acceptableContentTypes = [NSSet setWithObject:@"text/html"];
[manager POST:URLString parameters:parameters constructingBodyWithBlock:^(id<AFMultipartFormData> formData) {


    if (image) {
        [formData appendPartWithFileData:image name:@"image" fileName:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@.jpg",dateString] mimeType:@"image/jpeg"];
        NSLog(@"image: %@",image);
    }

    if (video) {
        [formData appendPartWithFileData:video name:@"video" fileName:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@.mp4",dateString] mimeType:@"video/quicktime"];
        NSLog(@"video: %@",video);
    }

    if (audio) {
        [formData appendPartWithFileData:audio name:@"audio" fileName:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@.mp3",dateString] mimeType:@"audio/m4a"];
        NSLog(@"audio: %@",audio);
    }
} success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
    NSLog(@"Success %@", responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
    UIAlertView *alert=[[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"Failure" message:@"Sending Failure" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil, nil];
    [alert show];
    NSLog(@"Failure %@, %@", error, operation.responseString);
}];

[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:NO completion:nil];

hope this will work
