Multipart Form Data Upload to HTTP server with parameters-CodePudding

I have an HTTP server that supports multipart form upload of files. The working curl request looks like

curl  -v --location --request POST 'http://192.168.1.3:9876/storage/module' \
--form 'name="I0000000001"' \
--form 'type="Log"' \
--form 'version="1.0.0.1"' \
--form 'user="admin"' \
--form 'file=@"/tmp/logDump.tgz"'

But I'm not able to convert this to C# successfully. The server is throwing HTTP 500 since the parameters (name, version, type, and user) are missing when sending with C#. I'm able to make this same file upload work in Curl, Python and C , so it is not an issue with the server, but with my C# code.

string filePath = @"/tmp/logDump.tgz";
using (var httpClient = new HttpClient())
{
    using (var form = new MultipartFormDataContent())
    {
        using (var fs = File.OpenRead(filePath))
        {
            using (var streamContent = new StreamContent(fs))
            {
                using (var fileContent = new ByteArrayContent(await streamContent.ReadAsByteArrayAsync()))
                {
                    fileContent.Headers.ContentType = MediaTypeHeaderValue.Parse("multipart/form-data");

                    form.Add(fileContent, "file", Path.GetFileName(filePath));
                    form.Add(new System.Net.Http.MultipartContent("SIM00000001"), "name");
                    form.Add(new System.Net.Http.MultipartContent("Log"), "type");
                    form.Add(new System.Net.Http.MultipartContent("1.0.0.135"), "version");
                    form.Add(new System.Net.Http.MultipartContent("admin"), "user");
                    HttpResponseMessage response = await httpClient.PostAsync("http://192.168.1.3:9876/storage/module", form);
                    response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
                    Console.WriteLine($" result is {response.StatusCode}");
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

How to do this correctly?

CodePudding user response：

The multipart form data should be sent as just key-value pairs, replace the below lines,

 form.Add(new System.Net.Http.MultipartContent("SIM00000001"), "name");
 ...

to,

 form.Add(new StringContent("SIM00000001"), "name");
 ...
