Posting base64 image to php server in android

Question

I am working on a module in which user can upload the image to the server. To achieve this, I have to change selected image into Base64. After conversion, I have to use Jso

Add httpmime-4.3.6.jar and httpcore-4.3.3.jar into your libs folder and add into build.gradle and sync it than after do this step;

This variable You have to define;

 private static int RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE = 1;
private static final int CAMERA_REQUEST = 1;
public static final int MEDIA_TYPE_IMAGE = 1;

private static final String TAG = MainActivity.class.getSimpleName();
 public static final String IMAGE_DIRECTORY_NAME = "Android File Upload";
Uri mImageCaptureUri;
private static final int PICK_IMAGE = 1;
 File sourceFile;
ProgressDialog pDialog;
ContentBody pic;
Bitmap bitmap;

than open gallary code.put into your Onclick.

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(i, RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE);

this is OnActivityResult

 @Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

    if (requestCode == PICK_IMAGE && resultCode == RESULT_OK
            && null != data) {
        Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
        String[] filePathColumn = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };

        Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(selectedImage,
                filePathColumn, null, null, null);
        cursor.moveToFirst();

        int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
        String picturePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
        cursor.close();

        decodeFile(picturePath);
        new ImageUploadTask().execute();
    }else {

        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "User Canceled",
                Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

    }

}

after this

  public void decodeFile(String filePath) {
    // Decode image size
    BitmapFactory.Options o = new BitmapFactory.Options();
    o.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
    BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath, o);

    // The new size we want to scale to
    final int REQUIRED_SIZE = 1024;

    // Find the correct scale value. It should be the power of 2.
    int width_tmp = o.outWidth, height_tmp = o.outHeight;
    int scale = 1;
    while (true) {
        if (width_tmp < REQUIRED_SIZE && height_tmp < REQUIRED_SIZE)
            break;
        width_tmp /= 2;
        height_tmp /= 2;
        scale *= 2;
    }

    // Decode with inSampleSize
    BitmapFactory.Options o2 = new BitmapFactory.Options();
    o2.inSampleSize = scale;
    bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath, o2);
    sourceFile = new File(filePath);
    Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath);
    ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    bmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 80, bos);
    InputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream(bos.toByteArray());
    pic = new ByteArrayBody(bos.toByteArray(),"filename");
    loadimage.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}



/**
 * The class connects with server and uploads the photo
 *
 *
 */
class ImageUploadTask extends AsyncTask {


    private String webAddressToPost;

    // private ProgressDialog dialog;
    private ProgressDialog dialog = new ProgressDialog(Tab1.this);

    @Override
    protected void onPreExecute() {
       dialog.setMessage("Uploading...");
       dialog.setCancelable(false);
        dialog.show();

    }

    @Override
    protected String doInBackground(Void... params) {
        try {

            // HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
            HttpContext localContext = new BasicHttpContext();
            HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost("YOUR URL");

            MultipartEntity entity1 = new MultipartEntity(
                    HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);

            ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
            bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, bos);
            byte[] data = bos.toByteArray();
          //  String file = com.onepgr.samcom.apicalldemo2.Base64.encodeBytes(data);
            entity1.addPart("Parameter", pic);

            // entity.addPart("someOtherStringToSend", new StringBody("your string here"));

            httpPost.setEntity(entity1);
            HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpPost, localContext);
            BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(response.getEntity().getContent(), "UTF-8"));
            String sResponse = reader.readLine();
            Log.d("------>>>>",sResponse);
            return sResponse;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // something went wrong. connection with the server error
        }
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
        dialog.dismiss();
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Profile picture change",
                Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

    }

}

Don't forget to add httpmime-4.3.6.jar and httpcore-4.3.3.jar file into your project.
