i want to upload Image to Dropbox. This code is worked but i want fileToUpload to be is a web URL because images is a Web Server. i know i can download every Images step by step. But this is a loss of performance. If i write a WebUrl in the fileToUpload. i see the exception. For Example:
fileToUpload = "https:\upload.wikimedia.org\wikipedia\commons\5\51\Small_Red_Rose.JPG"
The Exception:
C:\Users\LENOVO****\bin\Debug\net6.0\https:\upload.wikimedia.org\wikipedia\commons\5\51\Small_Red_Rose.JPG
*** - is a local folder name
i want to upload image to dropbox from Web
The UploadAsync method requires that you supply the data of the file to upload directly, as you are doing in your example by retrieving the file data from the local filesystem using File.ReadAllBytes.
If you want to upload a file to Dropbox directly from a URL without downloading it to your local filesystem first, you should instead use the SaveUrlAsync method.

I'm using a DropBox API just for tests and I need to save some images from my WebApi, the problem is I need to have a stringPath to make the upload, but since the Bitmap image will be "stored" inside of my model, I need to create a tempFile with a unique name for that image, so I could get a path and upload the image!
This is how upload :
async Task Upload(DropboxClient dbx, string folder, string file, string content)
{
using (var mem = new MemoryStream(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(content)))
{
var updated = await dbx.Files.UploadAsync(
folder + "/" + file,
WriteMode.Overwrite.Instance,
body: mem);
Console.WriteLine("Saved {0}/{1} rev {2}", folder, file, updated.Rev);
}
}
You have misunderstanding on path argument for UploadAsync() method.
It's not a source path to local file that you're going to upload.
It's a destination path to remote file in user's Dropbox. See Dropbox documentation for details.
I have a problem downloading file from gdrive
I am using this code
DriveService service = new DriveService();
var Stream = service.HttpClient.GetStreamAsync("https://drive.google.com/open?id=blablabla");
var result = Stream.Result;
using (var fileStream = System.IO.File.Create("MyFile.exe"))
{
result.CopyTo(fileStream);
}
But I am getting size of 103kB in MyFile.exe, and it has 800 kB.
I suspect that I am not getting download url right, as I right click on the file I want to download and get shareable link in this format: https://drive.google.com/open?id=blablaid
According to www.labnol.org/internet/direct-links-for-google-drive/28356/ the Google Drive download link is https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=[FILE_ID].
Otherwise you could also look at the Google Drive REST API (developers.google.com/drive/v3/web/manage-downloads).
Ultimately I'm trying to upload a document from the user's file system via MVC .NET web site to Google Drive, which utilizes a service account.
I'm not sure if I'm implementing the appropriate design to accomplish the upload but I am getting hung up on the path of the file to be uploaded.
Web
#Html.TextBox("file", "file", new { type = "file", id = "fileUpload" })
Controller
public ActionResult GoogleDriveList(GoogleDrivePageVM vm, HttpPostedFileBase file)
File _file = new File();
var _uploadFile = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(file.FileName);
byte[] byteArray = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(_uploadFile);
Error occurs on the ReadAllBytes statement. It could not find file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS Express\Map of Universe.txt'. The file name is correct but the path is not.
byte[] byteArray = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(_uploadFile);
System.IO.MemoryStream stream = new System.IO.MemoryStream(byteArray);
... Google Drive file stuff goes here
Then upload the file from the stream.
FilesResource.InsertMediaUpload request = _service.Files.Insert(body, stream, body.MimeType);
request.Upload();
So, am I going down the right path using the HTML file helper? And if so, what's the trick to get the path to work correctly? Also, I want to be able to support file sizes up to 500 MB (if that makes a difference).
If your getting the filename from a user selected windows file explorer dialog, then you shouldn't be using the below as will just strip out the filename without the path into your upload file variable and I am assuming that bogus path is where your're running the code from, so ReadAllBytes is trying to read from that path with the filename
var _uploadFile = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(file.FileName)
just change so it has that full path and filename you need to use in ReadAllBytes
var _uploadFile = file.FileName
i deployed a website on IIS running on localhost/xxx/xxx.aspx . On my WPF side , i download a textfile using webclient from the localhost server and save it at my wpf app folder
this is how i do it :
protected void DownloadData(string strFileUrlToDownload)
{
WebClient client = new WebClient();
byte[] myDataBuffer = client.DownloadData(strFileUrlToDownload);
MemoryStream storeStream = new MemoryStream();
storeStream.SetLength(myDataBuffer.Length);
storeStream.Write(myDataBuffer, 0 , (int)storeStream.Length);
storeStream.Flush();
string currentpath = System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory() + #"\Folder";
using (FileStream file = new FileStream(currentpath, FileMode.Create, System.IO.FileAccess.ReadWrite))
{
byte[] bytes = new byte[storeStream.Length];
storeStream.Read(bytes, 0, (int)storeStream.Length);
file.Write(myDataBuffer, 0, (int)storeStream.Length);
storeStream.Close();
}
//The below Getstring method to get data in raw format and manipulate it as per requirement
string download = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(myDataBuffer);
}
This is by writing btyes and saving them . But how do i download multiple image files and save it on my WPF app folder? I have a URL like this localhost/websitename/folder/designs/ , under this URL , there is many images , how do i download all of them ? and save it on WPF app folder?
Basically i want to download the contents of the folder whereby the contents are actually images.
First, the WebClient class already has a method for this. Use something like client.DownloadFile(remoteUrl, localFilePath).
See this link:
WebClient.DownloadFile Method (String, String)
Secondly, you will need to index the files you want to download on the server somehow. You can't just get a directory listing over HTTP and then loop through it. The web server will need to be configured to enable directory listing, or you will need a page to generate a directory listing. Then you will need to download the results of that page as a string using WebClient.DownloadString and parse it. A simple solution would be an aspx page that outputs a plaintext list of files in the directory you want to download.
Finally, in the code you posted you're saving every single file you download as a file named "Folder". You need to generate a unique filename for each file you want to download. When you're looping through the files you want to download, use something like:
string localFilePath = Path.Combine("MyDownloadFolder", imageName);
where imageName is a unique filename (with file extension) for that file.
I'm using a webview to display certain data in my windows 8 app. I would like to user an include to a local js file as well as use locally stored images.
Is this possible?
I haven't had any luck by putting the local path where the files are located.
According to WebView documentation you can only reference other files using the ms-appx-web protocol, i.e. to load the files stored in Windows.ApplicationModel.Package.Current.InstalledLocation, meaning that they need to be distributed as content along with your application. The control doesn't support ms-appdata protocol for security reasons, i.e. you can't open files stored Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.RemoteFolder or Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.TempFolder where you'd need to put them if you were generating or downloading them at runtime.
In JavaScript apps WebView is a bit more flexible: it does support ms-appdata protocol as well, but only for media files such as images. It cannot open any potentially executable code, such as script or CSS.
If you want to open some local .html file or atc. you should download it in InstalledLocation folder. If you haven't option to create a new file you can just use file.CopyAsync(htmlFolder, fname + ".html");
For example I create some .html file:
StorageFolder htmlFolder = await Windows.ApplicationModel.Package.Current.InstalledLocation.CreateFolderAsync(#"HtmlFiles", CreationCollisionOption.GenerateUniqueName);
IStorageFile file = await htmlFolder .CreateFileAsync(fname + ".html", CreationCollisionOption.GenerateUniqueName);
and than I can easily open this .html file with or without FileOpenPicker:
var fop = new FileOpenPicker();
fop.FileTypeFilter.Add(".html");
var file = await fop.PickSingleFileAsync();
if (file != null)
{
string myPath = file.Path.Substring(file.Path.IndexOf("HtmlFiles"));
myWebview.Navigate(new Uri("ms-appx-web:///" + myPath));
}
And don't forget - just only from InstalledLocation you can open it with ms-appx-web:///
If the WebView is IE10 based, FIleReader may be what you are looking for. Here is a snippet of code that I use on an image ipload page to show images in a page when they are selected via a File Open dialog:
$('input:file').each(function(index, evt){
if(index===0)
{
var files = evt.files;
for(var i=0;i<files.length;i++)
{
if(files[i].name===filename)
{
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload=(function(theFile){
return function(e){
var line= uploader.fineUploader('getItemByFileId',id);
if(line!=undefined)
$(line).append('<img class="fileimage" id="fileImage-' + id + '" src="'+e.target.result+'" />');
};
})(files[i]);
reader.readAsDataURL(files[i]);
break;
}
}
}
I hope this points you in the right direction!
