//let myUrl = NSURL(string: "http://easemyshop.in/upload_test/new.php");

let imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation((imageView?.image!)!, 1)
if(imageData==nil) { return; }
request.httpBody = createBodyWithParameters(parameters: param, filePathKey: "file", imageDataKey: imageData! as NSData, boundary: boundary) as Data
myActivityIndicator.isHidden = false
myActivityIndicator.startAnimating();
let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request as URLRequest)
{
data, response, error in
if error != nil
{
print("******** error=\(error)")
return

// You can print out response object
print("\n\n******* response *******\n\n")

Please give a try with below code to upload the image on your server, also replace fileName variable value with one in which you want to send the image file to your server.
func uploadImage(urlString:String,headers:[String:String]?,params:[String:String]?,image:UIImage?){
let boundary: String = "------VohpleBoundary4QuqLuM1cE5lMwCy"
let contentType: String = "multipart/form-data; boundary=\(boundary)"
let request = NSMutableURLRequest()
request.url = URL(string: urlString)
if let tHeaders = headers {
for (key, value) in tHeaders {
request.setValue(value, forHTTPHeaderField: key)
}
}
request.httpShouldHandleCookies = false
request.timeoutInterval = 60
request.httpMethod = "POST"
request.setValue(contentType, forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
let body = NSMutableData()
if let parameters = params {
for (key, value) in parameters {
body.append("--\(boundary)\r\n".data(using: String.Encoding.utf8)!)
body.append("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"\(key)\"\r\n\r\n".data(using: String.Encoding.utf8)!)
body.append("\(value)\r\n".data(using: String.Encoding.utf8)!)
}
}
//which field you have to sent image on server
let fileName: String = "file"
if image != nil {
body.append("--\(boundary)\r\n".data(using: String.Encoding.utf8)!)
body.append("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"\(fileName)\"; filename=\"image.png\"\r\n".data(using: String.Encoding.utf8)!)
body.append("Content-Type:image/png\r\n\r\n".data(using: String.Encoding.utf8)!)
body.append(UIImagePNGRepresentation(image!)!)
body.append("\r\n".data(using: String.Encoding.utf8)!)
}
body.append("--\(boundary)--\r\n".data(using: String.Encoding.utf8)!)
request.httpBody = body as Data
let session = URLSession.shared
let task = session.dataTask(with: request as URLRequest) { (data, response, error) in
if(error != nil){
print(String(data: data!, encoding: .utf8) ?? "No response from server")
}
}
task.resume()
}
at your PHP server, you can get your file name like this
<?php
echo $_FILES['file']['name'];
?>

func webServiceImageUploadForMyProfile(image:UIImage,url:String,method:HTTPMethod,parameters : [String:AnyObject]?,completionHandler:#escaping (JSON?,String)->Void) {
let url = try! URLRequest(url: url, method: .post, headers: nil)
Alamofire.upload(multipartFormData:{ multipartFormData in
if let imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(image, 0.6) {
multipartFormData.append(imageData, withName: "image", fileName: "Profile.png", mimeType: "image/png")
}
for (key, value) in parameters! {
multipartFormData.append(value.data(using: String.Encoding.utf8.rawValue)!, withName: key)
}
}, with: url, encodingCompletion: {
encodingResult in
switch encodingResult {
case .success(let upload, , ):
upload.uploadProgress(closure: { (progress) in
print("Upload Progress: \(progress.fractionCompleted)")
})
upload.responseJSON { response in
if(response.result.isSuccess){
if let data = response.result.value{
let json = JSON(data)
print(json)
completionHandler(json,String())
return
}
}else {
completionHandler(nil,(response.result.error?.localizedDescription)!)
}
}
case .failure( _):
break
}
})
}
