upload a file via RestEasy via MultipartOutput












0















I'm trying to programmatically upload a file to an enpoint via RestEasyClient.



File file = new File("/Users/michele/path/file.txt");

MultipartOutput multipartOutput = new MultipartOutput();
multipartOutput.addPart(file, MediaType.APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM_TYPE, "file.txt");
Entity<MultipartOutput> entity = Entity.entity(multipartOutput, MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA_TYPE);

//client is an instance of org.jboss.resteasy.client.jaxrs.ResteasyClient
client
.target("http://localhost:8080/endpoint")
.request()
.post(entity);


The problem is that the backend does not "find" the file that I uploaded



backend code



DiskFileItemFactory factory = new DiskFileItemFactory();
ServletFileUpload fileUpload = new ServletFileUpload(factory);
List<FileItem> items = fileUpload.parseRequest(httpReq);


items is always empt.



Using MultipartFormDataOutput::addFormData, as described in many articles, works but does not fit my use case.



Also using apache.http.client.HttpClient works, but I prefer to avoid adding dependencies to my client.



Any ideas?
