Uploading .pom file via node-bintray

Question

I am having a strange issue where uplading a .pom file via the node-bintray package results in a 400.

All other file uploads are functioning correctly, and I can't find any documentation that might explain why a .pom file should be different.

The pom file being uploaded is that which is generated by the com.github.dcendents.android-maven gradle plugin.

Below is a code sample that reproduces the issue:

const repository = new Bintray({
    username: bintrayProps.BINTRAY_USER,
    apikey: bintrayProps.BINTRAY_API_KEY,
    organization: bintrayProps.BINTRAY_ORG,
    repository: bintrayProps.BINTRAY_MAVEN_REPO
});

repository.uploadPackage('packageName', '1.0.0', './myPomFile.xml', 'my/group/artifactId/1.0.0/artifactId-1.0.0-myPomFile.pom', false);

The error message is as follows:

Unable to upload files: Could not extract metadata for artifact \'my/group/artifactId/1.0.0/artifactId-1.0.0-myPomFile.pom\', content might be malformed.

Example pom file::

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd" xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
    <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
    <groupId>my.group</groupId>
    <artifactId>artifactId</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0</version>
    <packaging>aar</packaging>
    <name>MyPackage</name>
    <url>http://my-site.io</url>
</project>

Changing the remote path to have any other extension results in a successful upload.

EDIT

Changed the remote path to match the pom file to rule out that issue.

EDIT 2

I've narrowed down the issue to a specific file path... It seems to only reproduce when the remote path follows the structure seen above my/group/artifactId/version/artifactId-version-myPomFile.pom

I eventually found the issue to be in the node-bintray package. The package was uploading to bintray using multipart, but that is not accepted by Bintray and the files all end up corrupted.

Uploading via inputStream using the request package functions correctly.

readStream = fs.createReadStream filePath
return request.put {
    url: Bintray.apiBaseUrl + endpoint,
    body: readStream,
    headers: {
        "Content-Type": mimeType
    }
    auth: {
        user: @rest.options.username
        pass: @rest.options.password
    }
}
