I am trying to call the running instance of DIGITS from a front-end Android mobile application.
DIGITS provides a REST API so the curl command would be:
curl http://192.168.0.10:5000/models/images/classification/classify_one.json -XPOST -F job_id=20150604-034131-da2c -F image_file=@/path/to/image/desert_0.jpg
It is important to mention that the curl tool is using the Content-Type multipart/form-data according to RFC 2388. This enables uploading of binary files etc.
Many people use Android Volley for HTTP POST transfer however for multipart/form-data a custom request should be written which turns to be complex.
I am looking to send parameter name/value to the server where value can be either an image or a String.
I have tried so far to adapt the solutions suggested [here] and [here] but didn't figure out how to send name/value to the server.
Adapting these answers or suggesting some more up-to-date libraries would be great.
