Uploading Files using Frapi

[dennis....@gmail.com]

I am quite stuck here, not sure if this functionality just isn't functional yet in Frapi.

I am trying to upload a rather large file (high resolution photo) to a Frapi Webservice.  I can get it to work if I send it as a normal String Post parameter, but that requires me to buffer the entire file in memory on my client device (phone), which is problematic.  I am attempting to upload it as a Multipart File attachment, but I can't seem to access the parameter in the Action code on Frapi, it is just blank.  I have tried accessing it via the methods below, but both are blank.
$this->getParam('File', self::TYPE_FILE)
and
$this->getParam('File', self::TYPE_OUTPUT)

Here is an example of my upload request going to Frapi, everything is received by Frapi just fine, but the parameter is blank.

Any ideas?

Good question, that's also my doubt!

Actually some servers also do restrict the amount of data you send
over a PUT / DELETE request, so it is nice to know how we can follow
the verbs rule without impacting the actual real needs of the app.

That's a must know for a great API design.

Cheers,

Turns out this is actually a bug, I reported this as an issue and a fix has already been worked on.
