MultipartFilter






Upload and store files



Update: if you're using Servlet 3.0 or newer, then there are built-in ways to process file uploads. You may find it more useful: Uploading files in Servlet 3.0.



Downloading files is made relatively easy using a FileServlet, but uploading files is a bit harder. Entering/selecting the raw absolute file path in input type="text" and sending it to the server so that it can be used in a File object isn't going to work, as the server doesn't have access to the client's file system. That will work only if the server as well as the client runs on the same machine and that wouldn't occur in real life.



To browse and select a file for upload you need a input type="file" field in the form. As stated in the HTML specification you have to use the POST method and the enctype attribute of the form have to be set to "multipart/form-data".





action="myServlet" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
type="file" name="file" />
type="submit" />




After submitting such a form the binary multipart form data is available in the HttpServletRequest#getInputStream(). For testing purposes you can read the stream using the following snippet:



BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(request.getInputStream()));
String line = null;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}



Parsing such a stream requires precise background knowledge of how multipart form data requests are structured. The standard Servlet API namely doesn't provide builtin facilities to parse them. The form fields aren't available as parameter of the request (e.g. request.getParameter("name") will always return null), they are included in the binary stream. The uploaded files are also included in the binary stream. To create a perfect multipart parser you'll have to write a lot of code. But don't feel disappointed, there are lot of 3rd party multipart parsers available. A commonly used one is the Apache Commons FileUpload. It can parse the multipart form data into several FileItem objects (misleading class name by the way, I'd rather call it MultipartItem). You'll have to filter the parameters and files out yourself.

MultipartFilter


To save you the effort, I've played around with it a while and wrote a MultipartFilter which automatically detects if the request is a multipart form data request, parses the request and store the parameters back in the parameter map of HttpServletRequest and stores the uploaded files as attributes of the HttpServletRequest. This way you can just continue writing the Servlet logic as usual.


It makes use of the Apache Commons FileUpload API 1.2. So you need at least the following JAR's (newer versions are allowed) in the classpath, e.g. in /WEB-INF/lib:



Here is the code. The stuff is tested in a Java EE 5.0 environment with Tomcat 6.0 with Servlet 2.5, JSP 2.1 and JSTL 1.2.

Basic use example


Here is a basic use example of a servlet, a form and JSP file which demonstrates the working of the MultipartFilter. Thanks to the MultipartFilter you can just use HttpServletRequest#getParameter() and #getParameterValues() for regular form fields. The uploaded file is available by HttpServletRequest#getAttribute(). If it is an instance of FileItem, then the upload was succesful, else if it is an instance of FileUploadException, then the upload was failed. The only cause can be that the file size exceeded the configured maximum file size.

Add and configure the servlet as follows in the web.xml:




myServlet
mypackage.MyServlet


Set the file path where uploaded files should be stored in. This parameter is
required.

uploadFilePath
c:/upload



myServlet
/myServlet


The form bean:



package mypackage;

import java.io.File;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

public class MyForm {

// Init ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

private String text;
private File file;
private String[] check;
private Map checked = new HashMap();
private Map errors = new HashMap();
private Map messages = new HashMap();

// Getters ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

public String getText() {
return text;
}

public File getFile() {
return file;
}

public String[] getCheck() {
return check;
}

// Setters ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

public void setText(String text) {
this.text = text;
}

public void setFile(File file) {
this.file = file;
}

public void setCheck(String[] check) {
checked = new HashMap();
for (String value : check) {
checked.put(value, Boolean.TRUE);
}
this.check = check;
}

// Helpers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

public Map getChecked() {
return checked;
}

public Map getErrors() {
return errors;
}

public Map getMessages() {
return messages;
}

public void setError(String fieldName, String message) {
errors.put(fieldName, message);
}

public void setMessage(String fieldName, String message) {
messages.put(fieldName, message);
}

public boolean hasErrors() {
return errors.size() > 0;
}

}

Finally the JSP file, save it as myForm.jsp in the root of the WebContent:



<%@taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>

html>

lang="en">

</span>Test<span class="codetag">


id="myForm" class="mypackage.MyForm" scope="request" />
name="myForm" property="*" />

action="myServlet" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
for="text" >Text:
type="text" id="text" name="text" value="${myForm.text}">
test="${myForm.errors.text != null}">
style="color: red;">${myForm.errors.text}

test="${myForm.messages.text != null}">
style="color: green;">${myForm.messages.text}




for="file" >File:
type="file" id="file" name="file">
test="${myForm.errors.file != null}">
style="color: red;">${myForm.errors.file}

test="${myForm.messages.file != null}">
style="color: green;">${myForm.messages.file}
test="${myForm.file != null}">
  href="file/${myForm.file.name}">Download back.






for="check1" >Check 1:
type="checkbox" id="check1" name="check" value="check1"
${myForm.checked.check1 ? 'checked' : ''}>
test="${myForm.errors.check != null}">
style="color: red;">${myForm.errors.check}

test="${myForm.messages.check != null}">
style="color: green;">${myForm.messages.check}




for="check2" >Check 2:
type="checkbox" id="check2" name="check" value="check2"
${myForm.checked.check2 ? 'checked' : ''} />



type="submit">




Note: the download link makes use of the FileServlet. Make sure that it points to the same directory as where the file is uploaded. You can configure it as an init-param.




Copy'n'paste the stuff, run it on http://localhost:8080/playground/myServlet (assuming that your local development server runs at port 8080 and that the context root of your playground web application project is called 'playground') and see it wonderfully working!
