golang file upload
Hi, I was able to upload a file using golang using this: var ( body = &bytes.Buffer{} writer = multipart.NewWriter(body) ) b := dropboxAPI{ ...
The content of the uploaded file should not be part of a multipart request.
An example:
package main
import (
"net/http"
"strings"
"fmt"
"io"
)
var client = &http.Client{}
func Upload(body io.Reader, filepath string) (string, error){
req, err := http.NewRequest("POST", "https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/upload", body)
if err != nil{
return "Could not create new requests", err
}
dbx_args := fmt.Sprintf("{\"autorename\":true,\"mode\":\"overwrite\",\"mute\":true,\"path\":\"%s\",\"strict_conflict\":false}", filepath)
req.Header = map[string][]string{
"Authorization":{"Bearer <YOUr-TOKEN-HERE>"},
"Content-Type": {"application/octet-stream"},
"Dropbox-API-Arg" : {dbx_args},
}
res, err := client.Do(req)
if err != nil{
return "Failure to connect", err
}
status_code := res.StatusCode
if status_code != 200{
return "Upload failed", fmt.Errorf("%d", status_code)
}
return "OK",nil
}
func main(){
file_content := strings.NewReader("Some file content")
filepath := "/Folder/test_file.txt"
msg, err := Upload(file_content, filepath)
if err != nil{
fmt.Println(err)
} else{
fmt.Println(msg)
}
}
