如何使用 swift 从 iOS 设备上传文件(到 REDCap)

How to upload a file (to REDCap) from an iOS device using swift

我正在尝试将保存到应用程序(使用 ResearchKit 构建)中目录的文件上传到服务器(通过 REDCap API)。 REDCap API 游乐场建议使用多种语言编写代码,但不建议使用 Obj-C 或 Swift。对于这种情况,我需要使用 Swift,这对我来说是第一次。以下是我尝试的一种方法,不幸的是它不起作用:

func postFileToRedcap (_ fileUrl: URL) {
    guard let url = URL (string: "https://our_redcap_url.edu/api/") else {return}
    let token = "ABCDEFGHIJK123456789" // unique to REDCap project
    let record = "1" // can be set elsewhere
    let event = ""
    let field = "file_upload_field" // name of field in REDCap
    
    if !fileUrl.pathComponents.isEmpty {
        let fileName = URL(fileURLWithPath: fileUrl.absoluteString).lastPathComponent
        var request = URLRequest.init(url: url)
        request.httpMethod = "POST"
        // parameters required by REDCap
        request.addValue(token, forHTTPHeaderField: "token")
        request.addValue(fileName, forHTTPHeaderField: "content")
        request.addValue("import", forHTTPHeaderField: "action")
        request.addValue(record, forHTTPHeaderField: "record")
        request.addValue(field, forHTTPHeaderField: "field")
        request.addValue(event, forHTTPHeaderField: "event")
        request.addValue("json", forHTTPHeaderField: "returnFormat")
        
        let task = URLSession.shared.uploadTask(
            with: request,
            fromFile: fileUrl
        )
        task.resume()
    }
}

主要问题似乎是参数设置,但我似乎找不到适用于 REDCap 的解决方案。

所有的帮助都被慷慨地接受了。 提前致谢!

经过太多时间,我意识到关键是使用

request.addValue("multipart/form-data; boundary=\(boundary)", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")

但正是来自 Postman 的代码片段使我能够成功构建参数数组和有效负载。我敢肯定,这是一个可以简化的工作版本。

    let record : = "1" // set elsewhere
    let event = ""

    let path = "path_of_file_to_be_uploaded"

            }
        }
    }
    body += "--\(boundary)--\r\n";
    let postData = body.data(using: .utf8)
     
    // create URL request and session
    var request = URLRequest(url: url,timeoutInterval: Double.infinity)
    request.addValue("multipart/form-data; boundary=\(boundary)", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
     
    request.httpMethod = "POST"
    request.httpBody = postData

    guard let data = data else {
        print(String(describing: error))

        }

    task.resume()
