This example shows how to upload images using iPhone SDK. In this example we pick multiple images from iPhone Image Gallery or from iPhone Camera and send them to server using ASIHttpRequest.

Step 1 :- Download Latest version of the AsiHttp framework.

Step 2 :- Copy the Folder of ASI and paste in to your project.



Step 3 :- Following Framework import into your projects.

SystemConfiguration.framework

MobileCoreServices.framework

CoreGraphics.framework

libz.1.2.3.dylib

For more Details
click here & Then start placing code as follows into your project.

Code for .h file.

#import
@interface RootViewController : UIViewController
{
NSMutableArray *arrImages;
IBOutlet UIButton *btnImage1;
IBOutlet UIButton *btnImage2;
IBOutlet UIButton *btnImage3;
IBOutlet UIButton *btnImage4;
}
- (IBAction)btnTakePicture_Clicked:(id)sender;
- (IBAction)btnPostImages_Clicked:(id)sender;
@end

Code for .m file.

#import "RootViewController.h"
#import "ASIFormDataRequest.h"
@implementation RootViewController
int intButton;
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
self.title = @"Select Images";
arrImages = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
}

- (IBAction)btnTakePicture_Clicked:(id)sender
{
UIActionSheet *actionSheet = [[UIActionSheet alloc] initWithTitle:@"Select Image from..." delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"Cancel" destructiveButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:@"Camera", @"Image Gallary", nil];
actionSheet.actionSheetStyle = UIActionSheetStyleBlackTranslucent;
actionSheet.alpha=0.90;
actionSheet.tag = 1;
[actionSheet showInView:self.view];
[actionSheet release];
UIButton *btn = (UIButton *)sender;
intButton = btn.tag;
}

- (void)actionSheet:(UIActionSheet *)actionSheet clickedButtonAtIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex
{
switch (actionSheet.tag)
{
case 1:
switch (buttonIndex)
{
case 0:
{
#if TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR
UIAlertView* alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Message" message:@"Camera not available." delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alert show];
[alert release];
#elif TARGET_OS_IPHONE
UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
picker.delegate = self;
//picker.allowsEditing = YES;
[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
[picker release];
#endif
}
break;
case 1:
{
UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
picker.delegate = self;
[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
[picker release];
}
break;
}
break;
default:
break;
}
}

-(void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController*)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary*)info
{
NSData *dataImage = UIImageJPEGRepresentation([info objectForKey:@"UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage"],1);
UIImage *img = [[UIImage alloc] initWithData:dataImage];

if (intButton == 1) {
[btnImage1 setBackgroundImage:img forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[btnImage1 setImage:nil forState:UIControlStateNormal];
} else if (intButton == 2) {
[btnImage2 setBackgroundImage:img forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[btnImage2 setImage:nil forState:UIControlStateNormal];
} else if (intButton == 3) {
[btnImage3 setBackgroundImage:img forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[btnImage3 setImage:nil forState:UIControlStateNormal];
} else {
[btnImage4 setBackgroundImage:img forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[btnImage4 setImage:nil forState:UIControlStateNormal];
}
[arrImages addObject:dataImage];
[picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

- (void)imagePickerControllerDidCancel:(UIImagePickerController *)picker {
[self.navigationController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

- (IBAction)btnPostImages_Clicked:(id)sender {
if ([arrImages count] > 0) {
NSString *strURL = @"Write Your URL Here.";
ASIFormDataRequest *request = [ASIFormDataRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:strURL]];
[request setDelegate:self];
[request setPostValue:@"This is sample text..." forKey:@"text"];
for (int i = 0; i < [arrImages count]; i++) {
[request addData:[arrImages objectAtIndex:i] withFileName:@"image.jpg" andContentType:@"image/jpeg" forKey:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"image%d", i + 1]];
}
[request startAsynchronous];
} else {
UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"Message" message:@"Please select images..." delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"Ok" otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alertView show];
[alertView release];
}
}

- (void)requestFinished:(ASIHTTPRequest *)request {
NSString *receivedString = [request responseString];
UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"Message" message:receivedString delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"Ok" otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alertView show];
[alertView release];
}

- (void)requestFailed:(ASIHTTPRequest *)request {
NSString *receivedString = [request responseString];
UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"Message" message:receivedString delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"Ok" otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alertView show];
[alertView release];
}

Give Me the Code.

Here
is the source code for it.

ASIFormDataRequest *uploadImageRequest= [ ASIFormDataRequest requestWithURL :
[NSURL URLWithString:[urlString stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]
]];

[uploadImageRequest setStringEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

[uploadImageRequest setRequestMethod:@"POST"];

[uploadImageRequest setPostValue:studentsID forKey:@"studentId"];

[uploadImageRequest setPostValue:classId forKey:@"classId"];

[uploadImageRequest setPostValue:userId forKey:@"userId"];

[uploadImageRequest setPostValue:kindId forKey:@"kindId"];

[uploadImageRequest setPostValue:partitionCode forKey:@"partitionCode"];

[uploadImageRequest setPostFormat:ASIMultipartFormDataPostFormat];

for (UIImage *eImage in imagesArray)

{

NSData *imageData=UIImageJPEGRepresentation(eImage,100);

NSString *photoName=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@.jpg",[self dateString]];

NSString *photoDescribe=@" ";

NSLog(@"photoName=%@",photoName);

NSLog(@"photoDescribe=%@",photoDescribe);

NSLog(@"图片大小+++++%d",[imageData length]/1024);

//照片content

[uploadImageRequest setPostValue:photoDescribe forKey:@"photoContent"];

[uploadImageRequest addData:imageData withFileName:photoName andContentType:@"image/jpeg" forKey:@"photoContent"];

}

[uploadImageRequest setDelegate : self ];

[uploadImageRequest setDidFinishSelector : @selector (responseComplete:)];

[uploadImageRequest setDidFailSelector : @selector (responseFailed:)];

[uploadImageRequest startAsynchronous];
