Symfony request stays empty while sending file from javascript












1















I'm trying to send a file using React.js and the dropzone package.
I can send the file but the request in my php controller doesn't contain the file.



Here is the code:



Javascript:



handleDrop = files => {
// const uploaders = files.map(file => {
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append("file", files[0], 'picture');

return axios.post("http://localhost:8000/upload", formData, {
headers: {
'accept': 'application/json',
'Content-Type': `multipart/form-data; boundary=${formData._boundary}`,
}})
.then(response => {
const data = response.data;
console.log(data);
})
// })
};

render() {
return (
<div>
<NavigationBar>
displaySearchFields={'none'}
</NavigationBar>
<Dropzone onDrop={this.handleDrop}>
<div>Try dropping some files here, or click to select files to upload.</div>
</Dropzone>
</div>
);
}


Php:



/**
* @Route("/upload", methods={"POST", "OPTIONS"}, name="upload")
*/
public function uploadImageToDatabase(Request $request)
{
$data = $request->files->get("file");

$this->saveImage($data);

return new JsonResponse($request);
}

public function saveImage($image){
$fp = fopen("D:TempimageToEncode.png", "w");
fwrite($fp, $image);
fclose($fp);
}


Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

  • I'm quite sure that FormData take a <form> selector as parameter

  • Doing const formData=new FormData(document.getElementById(MyFormId)) will include every inputs in the form. Thus you don't need to append any data
