I'm integrating Quickblox in my Ionic2 app, for now I was able to do all the things except uploading a file. In Quickblox you have to upload a file using a function made by them that according to js documentation looks like this:
var inputFile = $("input[type=file]")[0].files[0];
var params = {name: inputFile.name,
file: inputFile,
type: inputFile.type,
size: inputFile.size,
public: false};
QB.content.createAndUpload(params, function(err, response){
if (err) {
console.log(err);
} else {
console.log(response);
var uploadedFile = response;
var uploadedFileId = response.id;
}
});
So I translated above code to typescript and I have something like this:
uploadFile(filename) {
File.resolveDirectoryUrl(cordova.file.dataDirectory).then(
(dirEntry) => {
File.getFile(dirEntry, filename, { create: false }).then(
(fileEntry) => {
console.log(fileEntry);
fileEntry.file((file) => {
console.log(file);
var params = {
name: file['name'],
file: file,
type: file['type'],
size: file['size'],
'public': false
};
quickblox.content.createAndUpload(params,
(err, response) => {
if (err) {
console.log(err);
} else {
console.log(response);
var uploadedFileId = response.id;
var msg = {
type: 'groupchat',
body: "[attachment]",
extension: {
save_to_history: 1,
}
};
msg["extension"]["attachments"] = [{ id: uploadedFileId, type: 'photo' }];
quickblox.chat.send(this.xmpp_room_jid, msg);
}
});
})
}).catch(
(err) => {
console.log(err);
}
);
}
);
}
This work in the terms of "I get ok responses from quickblox server", but when I go to the admin console of quickblox to check the uploaded content I find out that the image I uploaded has 0 bytes. So after checking the code for a while I compared side by side all my function calls with the example app of quickblox and the only difference I could find was in the File object.
This is the File object I get in my Ionic 2 app:
And this is the one I get in the quickblox js example:
All the others things looks identically except this File object. I'm almost sure that this is the problem I'm having, and because I'm very newbie in this field, I couldn't find a way to cast from my File object in Ionic to something like the File object in the js example. Thanks in advance at all for your time and help.
EDIT:
I attach the requests/responses logs from my Ionic app:
