How to upload images after cropping in Xamarin

0

I am using ImageCropper and MediaPlugin to Upload images. However I have problem getting the image after cropping the image.

string imagefile;
protected void OnClickedRectangle(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    new ImageCropper()
    {
        Success = (imageFile) =>
        {
            Device.BeginInvokeOnMainThread(() =>
            {
                view_imageavatar.Source = ImageSource.FromFile(imageFile);

            });
        }
    }.Show(this);
}

async void edit_avatar_Tapped(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    try
    {
        await CrossMedia.Current.Initialize();
        new ImageCropper()
        {
            PageTitle = "Title",
            AspectRatioX = 1,
            AspectRatioY = 1,
            CropShape = ImageCropper.CropShapeType.Rectangle,
            SelectSourceTitle = "Img",
            TakePhotoTitle = "Take Camera",
            PhotoLibraryTitle = "Img Gallery",
            Success = (imageFile) =>
            {
                Device.BeginInvokeOnMainThread(async() =>
                {
                    view_imageavatar.Source = ImageSource.FromFile(imageFile);
                    imagefile = imageFile;
                    //API Get Images Upload
                    var content = new MultipartFormDataContent();
                    content.Add(new StreamContent(imageFile), "files", imagefile);
                    var httpClient = new HttpClient();
                    var responses = await httpClient.PostAsync("https://xxxxx/api/Upload", content);
                });
            }
        }.Show(this);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("GalleryException:>" + ex);
    }
}

enter image description here

However how can I get the Image to upload. note that view_imageavatar still shows the image after cropping. Tks!

Update...

async void edit_avatar_Tapped(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    try
    {
        await CrossMedia.Current.Initialize();
        new ImageCropper()
        {
            PageTitle = "Title",
            AspectRatioX = 1,
            AspectRatioY = 1,
            CropShape = ImageCropper.CropShapeType.Rectangle,
            SelectSourceTitle = "Img",
            TakePhotoTitle = "Take Camera",
            PhotoLibraryTitle = "Img Gallery",
            Success = (imageFile) =>
            {
                Device.BeginInvokeOnMainThread(async() =>
                {
                    view_imageavatar.Source = ImageSource.FromFile(imageFile);
                    imagefile = imageFile;
                    //API Get Images Upload
                    
                    var fileStream = File.OpenRead(imageFile);
                    var fileContent = new StreamContent(fileStream);

                    var content = new MultipartFormDataContent();
                    content.Add(fileContent, "files", imageFile);
                    var httpClient = new HttpClient();    
                    
                    var responses = await httpClient.PostAsync("https://xxxxxx/api/UploadAvatarUs", content);   
                });
            }
        }.Show(this);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("GalleryException:>" + ex);
    }
}

It still doesn't work?

Update 2

async void edit_avatar_Tapped(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    try
    {
        await CrossMedia.Current.Initialize();
        new ImageCropper()
        {
            PageTitle = "Title",
            AspectRatioX = 1,
            AspectRatioY = 1,
            CropShape = ImageCropper.CropShapeType.Rectangle,
            SelectSourceTitle = "Img",
            TakePhotoTitle = "Take Camera",
            PhotoLibraryTitle = "Img Gallery",
            Success = (imageFile) =>
            {
                Device.BeginInvokeOnMainThread(async() =>
                {
                    view_imageavatar.Source = ImageSource.FromFile(imageFile);
                    imagefile = imageFile;
                    //API Get Images Upload

                    var upfilebytes = File.ReadAllBytes(imageFile);
                    var ms = new MemoryStream(upfilebytes);
                    var content = new MultipartFormDataContent();
                    content.Add(new StreamContent(ms), "files", imageFile);


                    var httpClient = new HttpClient();    

                    var responses = await httpClient.PostAsync("https://xxxxxx/api/UploadAvatarUs", content);   
                });
            }
        }.Show(this);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("GalleryException:>" + ex);
    }
}

-> It still can't upload photos through the API?

However I try not to use ImageCropper. I upload directly.

async void edit_avatar_Tapped(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    var file = await MediaPicker.PickPhotoAsync();
    var content = new MultipartFormDataContent();
    content.Add(new StreamContent(await file.OpenReadAsync()), "files", file.FileName);

    var httpClient = new HttpClient();

    var responses = await httpClient.PostAsync("https://xxxxxx/api/UploadAvatarUs", content);
    string a = responses.StatusCode.ToString();
}

--> Then it works fine, the image is uploaded through the API

Does the image load from content.Add(new StreamContent(ms), "files", imageFile); it doesn't work with API? Looking for solutions from everyone.

Have you actually checked what StreamContent takes as arguments?

It takes a Stream not a path to a file.

You need to open the file first like so:

using var fileStream = File.Open(imageFile);
using var fileContent = new StreamContent(fileStream);

Have you tried something like that?

Thank you. However File.Open(imageFile); -> Open doesn't work. I pass in File.OpenRead(imageFile). Is this good? I have updated the above.
