Hi stackoverflow friends
I want to upload text along with image to the webserver. I saw so many examples for uploading images to webserver but nobody explains how to send text from a uitextField along with image.
All of them points this link
http://iphone.zcentric.com/2008/08/29/post-a-uiimage-to-the-web/
This link gives only how to upload images only. I want to send some text values along with this. Could you please send me some example code.
Any help is Appreciable
I recommend you try ASIHTTPRequest. It allows you to easily accomplish such a task. You can create a PHP file that will receive your data via POST - ASIHTTPRequest provides some easy to use methods for this.
See here.
you can Use Evernote API for this purpose

There is a Twitter user who posts valuable stuff and I want to save his tweets not as text but as images (screenshots) just as you see it on your phone or computer.
I installed python-twitter and tweepy but I didn't find a solution in the docs and neither in communities so far.
Alternatively: Is there another way to save tweets in a kind of pretty, visually appealing way?
Thank you in advance.
With those libraries you can only extract Twitter data. Those aren't image processing libraries. You will have to write your own logic how you want those pictures displayed.
Look into Pillow.
I usually use this site called tweetcyborg.com It converts any tweet into an image.
I figured it out. Using Selenium Webdriver to open the Twitter account page in the browser, then scrape the tweets and use a screenshot tool to make an image. This looping through all tweets.
Considering using react-native-uploader to upload from iOS CameraRoll to s3. My end goal is to allow users to select an image from CameraRoll and post it on an api-based chat (sendbird). Based on the documentation, for react-native-uploader, though, it doesn't seem like it returns the s3 url in the response. Does anyone know if there's a way to get this back in the response? Perhaps I be approaching another way entirely?
Part of the rationale for this approach is that it's similar to how it works when a file is uploaded on the web-based version of the chat. We use file-uploader, then we post the message to sendbird using the s3 version of the url. Appreciate the help.
Ended up using react-native-aws3 instead. It was very straight forward.
I'm trying to find a good alternative at Parse.
FireBase seems to be good, but I can't find how to upload image/file from the dashboard like in Parse ?
Can we upload image/file from the firebase dashboard like in Parse ?
No You Can Not because firebase doesn't provide such type of feature.
Edit:
Ah! My old accepted answer got unaccepted because I gave straight answer :) Well OP didn't ask about programming way of solution so I assumed not to provide one.
There are couple of approaches to handle images with firebase, I usually upload images to s3 bucket and store urls in firebase. Again there is choice to implement above approach i.e. do all on server-side, do all on client-side or do with mix of client-side and server-side. But It is better to do signaturing on server to keep thing secure.
Node-Cheat Available:
For complete code, get working node-cheat at github node-cheat aws, choose any folder and run node file_name.
While the above is an answer, it's does't provide a solution, so here's a bit more data.
Uploading/storing data in firebase is super simple and requires a minimal amount of code.
For images, encode the image as a string and store the string in firebase. Then to retrieve the image, retrieve the string and decode it.
You should be able to do both in about 12 lines of code (depending on platform).
There are several examples already published here, I like this one with Swift.
Swift2 retrieving images from Firebase
Hope that helps!
No, you cannot upload directly, but you could use some opensource project out there that will make a simple dashboard for you to upload it easily like this tutorial
I'm making a cribbage app for our slack channel. It's played using Slash commands. I'm currently showing the player their hand when they type the /showHand command, and it works, but I'd really like to be able to inline the image attachments but I cannot find a way to do this. Currently, it looks like this:
And if I use thumbnails it looks like this:
Is there a better approach? Possibly a way to add multiple images to one attachment? Possibly a display option to display response attachments inline?
UPDATE:
I followed Szymon Roziewski's advice and created a server-side module to download the card images I needed and create the final image of the player's hand. The images are cached so they only need to be downloaded once during the lifetime of the dyno.
I also contacted Slack support and I was told that inlining image attachments isn't currently possible but they might make it a future feature.
I am making an iphone application which is pretty much like forum. People can ask question and upload a pdf/doc file along with the question. Is there a way to access the pdf/doc file in iphone when user clicks upload button and send the file to server?
I have implemented the feature for image for which I used UIImagePicker to pick the image and send it to the server with http request. But I am completely lost and have no idea how to handle pdf/doc files in same manner.
Any help/suggestion really appreciated. Thanks in advance.
If you want to upload PDF and Doc files, then you can integrate Dropbox and Google Drive in your app and then select the files ,as Apple does not have centralised storage. If you notice Apple also chooses the documents from Google Drive while composing a mail.
So implementing and integrating google drive and Dropbox would be a good option.
Here is the link for Dropbox https://www.dropbox.com/developers-v1/core/sdks/ios
Here is the link for Google Drive https://developers.google.com/drive/ios/quickstart
Implementing Google drive is a bit hard but dropbox is quite simple.
Wish it saves your time. All the best!
I think you are looking for a combination of two things (both have been discussed here before and I include the links below).
(1) store a PDF. There are many options but the best way is to allow coredata to save outside the persistent store. Then store the reference to the file in core date. See: Insert a PDF file into Core Data?
(2) send the file to the server. There are many options for this as well. The fastest is probably to use a wrapper library such as ASIHTTPRequest. See: File Upload to HTTP server in iphone programming
