Send Asset Video to web service - iOS - ios

I am trying to send video in assets library to web service with parameter video but how is it possible to do ?
I got the NSURL as the following : assets-library://asset/asset.MOV?id=What-ever-0000-000&ext=MOV
I am using AFNetworking to send the post request and here is my code :
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
manager.responseSerializer.acceptableContentTypes = [NSSet setWithObject:#"text/html"];
[manager setSecurityPolicy:[AFSecurityPolicy policyWithPinningMode:AFSSLPinningModeNone]];
[manager.requestSerializer setValue:#"no-cache" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Catch-Control"];
NSDictionary *parameters = #{#"video": myurl};
[manager POST:#"this is my service link" parameters:parameters success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
Do I need to convert the NSURL to another representation so I can submit it? I have no idea?

You can post video to server like this.
AFHTTPRequestOperation *op = [theManager POST:urlString
parameters:theParameters
constructingBodyWithBlock:^(id<AFMultipartFormData> formData)
{
[formData appendPartWithFileURL:postedVideoURL name:#"media" fileName:#"FinalMovie.mp4" mimeType:#"mp4" error:nil];
[formData appendPartWithFileData:imgData name:#"video_thumb" fileName:#"png" mimeType:#"image/jpeg"];
}
success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject)
{}
failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error)
{}];
[op start];
Create theManager object like this.
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
Hope this helps.

AFNetworking - Make an HTTP POST to REST, sending a JSON with Base64string image

I am trying to send a base64 encoded image among some other strings using http POST and AFNetworking. I am trying to send the parameters as an NSDictionary:
NSMutableDictionary *info = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
[info setValue:filedata forKey:#"filedata"];
[info setValue:comments forKey:#"comments"];
[info setValue:username forKey:#"username"];
[info setValue:#"jpg" forKey:#"filetype"];
[info setValue:filename forKey:#"filename"];
and POST using AFNetworking:
AFHTTPSessionManager *manager = [[AFHTTPSessionManager alloc]initWithSessionConfiguration:[NSURLSessionConfiguration defaultSessionConfiguration]];
manager.requestSerializer = [AFJSONRequestSerializer serializer];
[manager.requestSerializer setValue:#"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
[manager POST:#"https://myurl.com/fileupload" parameters:info progress:nil success:^(NSURLSessionTask *task, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(NSURLSessionTask *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
However I am not sure what else to do at this point. What am I missing? Thank you
You can use the following example
AFHTTPSessionManager *manager = [AFHTTPSessionManager manager];
[manager POST:#"https://myurl.com/fileupload" parameters:nil constructingBodyWithBlock:^(id<AFMultipartFormData> formData) {
[formData appendPartWithFileData:imageData
name:#"key name for the image"
fileName:photoName mimeType:#"image/jpeg"];
} success:^(NSURLSessionDataTask *task, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"Response: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(NSURLSessionDataTask *task, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];

iOS: AFHTTPSession manager response data

in my app I'm using the new AFN 3.0 and I have
AFHTTPSessionManager *manager
instead of
AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation
my problem is that before I was able to get some data from RequestOperation as:
NSURL *url = operation.request.URL;
//or
NSNumber statusCode = operation.response.statusCode;
//or
NSData *responseData = operation.responseData;
and how can I get this elements with AFHTTPSessionManager?
thanks
in v2 you were getting AFHTTPRequestOperation for the request
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
[manager GET:#"http://example.com/resources.json" parameters:nil success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
But in the v3 you will get NSURLSessionTask
AFHTTPSessionManager *manager = [AFHTTPSessionManager manager];
[manager GET:#"http://example.com/resources.json" parameters:nil progress:nil success:^(NSURLSessionTask *task, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(NSURLSessionTask *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
So based on that you can get the details the from the NSURLSessionTask like the currentRequest , response etc
For more changes and details, you can refer to the migration guide of AFNetworking
AFNetworking Migration Guide
For NSURLSessionTask Reference : NSURLSessionTask

AFNetworking migration from 1.x to 3.x

I am doing the migration of AFNetworking library from 1.x to 3.x for my project.
As per my understanding the AFHTTPRequestOperation to be replaced with AFHTTPSessionManager.
What is the replacement for the method cancel and property isCancelled,isReady, request and response that are present in the AFHTTPRequestOperation class.
Help appreciated.
In AFHTTPRequestOperationManager
AFHTTPSessionManager *manager = [AFHTTPSessionManager manager];
[manager GET:#"http://example.com/resources.json" parameters:nil progress:nil success:^(NSURLSessionTask *task, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(NSURLSessionTask *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
In AFHTTPRequestOperation
NSURL *URL = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://example.com/resources/123.json"];
AFHTTPSessionManager *manager = [AFHTTPSessionManager manager];
[manager GET:URL.absoluteString parameters:nil progress:nil success:^(NSURLSessionTask *task, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(NSURLSessionTask *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];

How to make a rest API Call post with multiple parameter

I am trying to have an API Call post. I can use this post command however my issue is that I have multiple parameters such as, Name, phone number, email, and multiple other private information. I have tried this method in order to get it to work but have not been successful. Thank you in advance for any help!
GET Request
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
[manager GET:#"http://example.com/resources.json" parameters:nil success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
or
POST URL-Form-Encoded Request
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
NSDictionary *parameters = #{#"foo": #"bar"};
[manager POST:#"http://example.com/resources.json" parameters:parameters success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
NSDictionary *parameters = #{#"foo": #"bar", #"key_param2":#"obj_param2", #"key_param3":#"obj_param3",#"key_paramN":#"obj_paramN"};
[manager POST:#"http://example.com/resources.json" parameters:parameters success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
To add more parameters, just include them in your parameters dictionary like so:
NSDictionary *parameters = #{#"foo": #"bar", #"otherFoo":#"otherBar"};
Then pass 'parameters' to your post method exactly as you are currently doing.

how to post parameter like {"register_id":"3"} in AFNetworking

i tried it but didn't work in AFNetworking only showing parameters error
but i used postman to check and when i send data via key and value it showing error but from raw data i send {"register_id":"3"}
then it will show me data so how to post parameter like this in AFNetworking.
using This Link
http://www.icubemedia.net/visitorbook/display_all.php
is any one can help me for that how to post that data
log error is:
2015-06-19 14:05:08.078 DemoAFNetworking[72771:1160924]
{"msg":"parameter missing!"}
Indeed there are no parameters missing, the fact that the request worked in Postman was the key. On the one hand, you should be trying to POST to that URL, not GET. On the other hand, since you are sending a JSON, you need the appropriate serializer.
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
//JSON Serializer
manager.requestSerializer = [AFJSONRequestSerializer serializer];
NSDictionary *parameters = #{#"register_id": #"3"};
[manager POST:#"http://www.icubemedia.net/visitorbook/display_all.php" parameters:parameters success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
Check this example on how to do a GET with simple parameter with AFNetworking 2.0:
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
manager.requestSerializer = [AFJSONRequestSerializer serializer];
NSDictionary *parameters = #{#"foo": #"bar"};
[manager GET:#"http://example.com/resources.json" parameters:parameters success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
EDIT 1: added JSON serializer ;)
