I might be wrong on this but I think you need to implement your own com.android.volley.toolbox.HttpStack for this because the default ones (HurlStack if version > Gingerbread or HttpClientStack) don't deal with multipart/form-data.
Edit:
And indeed I was wrong. I was able to do it using MultipartEntity in Request like this:
public class MultipartRequest extends Request {
private MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity();
private static final String FILE_PART_NAME = "file";
private static final String STRING_PART_NAME = "text";
private final Response.Listener mListener;
private final File mFilePart;
private final String mStringPart;
public MultipartRequest(String url, Response.ErrorListener errorListener, Response.Listener listener, File file, String stringPart)
{
super(Method.POST, url, errorListener);
mListener = listener;
mFilePart = file;
mStringPart = stringPart;
buildMultipartEntity();
}
private void buildMultipartEntity()
{
entity.addPart(FILE_PART_NAME, new FileBody(mFilePart));
try
{
entity.addPart(STRING_PART_NAME, new StringBody(mStringPart));
}
catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e)
{
VolleyLog.e("UnsupportedEncodingException");
}
}
@Override
public String getBodyContentType()
{
return entity.getContentType().getValue();
}
@Override
public byte[] getBody() throws AuthFailureError
{
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
try
{
entity.writeTo(bos);
}
catch (IOException e)
{
VolleyLog.e("IOException writing to ByteArrayOutputStream");
}
return bos.toByteArray();
}
@Override
protected Response parseNetworkResponse(NetworkResponse response)
{
return Response.success("Uploaded", getCacheEntry());
}
@Override
protected void deliverResponse(String response)
{
mListener.onResponse(response);
}
}
It's pretty raw but I tried it with an image and a simple string and it works. The response is a placeholder, doesn't make much sense to return a Response String in this case. I had problems using apache httpmime to use MultipartEntity so I used this https://code.google.com/p/httpclientandroidlib/ don't know if there's a better way.
Hope it helps.
Edit
You can use httpmime without using httpclientandroidlib, the only dependency is httpcore.
