Unable to send image attachment to backend

Time:04-06

I am trying to send the image data along with other input fields but was successfully able to send the other info but not the image. Please help me with the following code I have to send an image attachment from React frontend.

CompanyForm.js

import React, { useState } from "react";
import axios from 'axios';
import { useNavigate } from 'react-router-dom';

function CompanyForm() {
  const [name, setName] = useState("");
  const [title, setTitle] = useState("");
  const [price, setPrice] = useState("");
  const [upload, setUpload] = useState(null);

  const navigate = useNavigate();

  const AddInfo = async () => {
    let formField = new FormData()

    formField.append('name', name)
    formField.append('title', title)
    formField.append('price', price)
    formField.append('upload', upload)

    if (upload !== null) {
      formField.append('upload', upload)
    }


    const AddInfo = () => {
      const formField = new FormData()
      formField.append('name', name)
      formField.append('title', title)
      formField.append('price', price)
      formField.append('upload', upload)

    }

    await axios({
      method: 'POST',
      url: 'http://localhost:8000/',
      data: formField,

      headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
      },

    }).then((res) => {
      console.log(res.data)
      navigate('/')
    })

  }


  return (
    <form>
      <div className="mb-3">

        <label for="Name" className="form-label">Name</label>
        <input type="text" className="form-control" name="name" value={name} onChange={(e) => setName(e.target.value)} />
      </div>

      <div className="mb-3">
        <label for="title" className="form-label">Title</label>
        <input type="text" className="form-control" name="title" value={title} onChange={(e) => setTitle(e.target.value)} />
      </div>
      <div className="mb-3">
        <label for="price" className="form-label">Price</label>
        <input type="number" className="form-control" name="price" value={price} onChange={(e) => setPrice(e.target.value)} />
      </div>
      <div >
        <label for="upload" >Upload</label>

        <input  type="file" name="upload" onChange={(e) => setUpload(e.target.files[0])} />
      </div>

      <button type="submit" className="btn btn-primary" onClick={AddInfo}>Submit</button>
    </form>
  )
}

export default CompanyForm;

Also, other data in the form is successfully forwarded to backend but image field going blank means without image

CodePudding user response:

You need to modify the headers value

From 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' to

headers: {
   'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
}

Full change can be

import React, { useState } from "react";
import axios from 'axios';
import { useNavigate } from 'react-router-dom';

function CompanyForm() {
  const [name, setName] = useState("");
  const [title, setTitle] = useState("");
  const [price, setPrice] = useState("");
  const [upload, setUpload] = useState(null);

  const navigate = useNavigate();

  const AddInfo = async () => {
    let formField = new FormData()

    formField.append('name', name)
    formField.append('title', title)
    formField.append('price', price)
    formField.append('upload', upload)

    if (upload !== null) {
      formField.append('upload', upload)
    }


    const AddInfo = () => {
      const formField = new FormData()
      formField.append('name', name)
      formField.append('title', title)
      formField.append('price', price)
      formField.append('upload', upload)

    }

    await axios({
      method: 'POST',
      url: 'http://localhost:8000/',
      data: formField,

      headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
      },

    }).then((res) => {
      console.log(res.data)
      navigate('/')
    })

  }


  return (
    <form>
      <div className="mb-3">

        <label for="Name" className="form-label">Name</label>
        <input type="text" className="form-control" name="name" value={name} onChange={(e) => setName(e.target.value)} />
      </div>

      <div className="mb-3">
        <label for="title" className="form-label">Title</label>
        <input type="text" className="form-control" name="title" value={title} onChange={(e) => setTitle(e.target.value)} />
      </div>
      <div className="mb-3">
        <label for="price" className="form-label">Price</label>
        <input type="number" className="form-control" name="price" value={price} onChange={(e) => setPrice(e.target.value)} />
      </div>
      <div >
        <label for="upload" >Upload</label>

        <input  type="file" name="upload" onChange={(e) => setUpload(e.target.files[0])} />
      </div>

      <button type="submit" className="btn btn-primary" onClick={AddInfo}>Submit</button>
    </form>
  )
}

export default CompanyForm;

CodePudding user response:

class Data(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=30, blank=True, null=True)
    title = models.CharField(max_length=30, blank=True, null=True)
    price = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True)
    image = models.ImageField(upload_to = "data", blank=True, null=True)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.name

same image field should used everywhere:

<input  type="file" name="image" onChange={(e) => setUpload(e.target.files[0])} />
