I want to play an mp3 song which first will be downloaded locally and then it will be played.
I have written following code:
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:[songURL stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:url cachePolicy:NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringLocalCacheData timeoutInterval:60.0];
[request setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
NSURLResponse *response;
NSError *error;
NSData* result = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&response error:&error];
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory , NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *pathForSoundFile = [[paths objectAtIndex:0] stringByAppendingString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"/my.mp3"]];
NSLog(#"%#",pathForSoundFile);
NSURL *myURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",pathForSoundFile]];
[self playPreviewMethod];
-(void)playPreviewMethod
{
[songPreview play];
}
What I guess is that the file is not downloaded or converted in the mp3 format.
is your file getting downloaded?
Check out the folder Library-> applicationSupport-> iPhone Simulator -> your folder-> Documents
Chck out whether the file is downloaded. and if the file is getting downloaded then check out the name of the file whether it is my.mp3 or not. I think theres the problem you are not passing correct name while playing the file.
hAPPY cODING...

I am creating simple file uploaded.
Some unexpected behavior is happening with File upload.
When i am running build from my iMac to iPhone, it works fine without any issue.
But when i create an build(ipa) file. and install it from iTune. Request fails.
Might be there is issue with ASIHTTP?
You can take idea from following code.
-(IBAction)btnPostData_Clicked: (id)sender
{
NSString *file2 = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"Ovation-Mike_Koenig-1061486511" ofType:#"mp3"];
NSData *file1Data = [[NSData alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:file2];
NSURL *audiourl = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://alligator.netsmartz.us/iphone/iphone.php"];
ASIFormDataRequest *request = [ASIFormDataRequest requestWithURL:audiourl];
NSData *postData = [[NSData alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:file2];
//SoundPath is your audio url path of NSDocumentDirectory.
[request addData:postData withFileName:#"Ovation-Mike_Koenig-1061486511.mp3" andContentType:#"audio/mp3" forKey:#"company_audio"];
[request setDelegate:self];
[request startSynchronous];
}
I am trying to eneble a button to download a pdf file from a server.
(Onto the divice)
I'm not being successful with this code (to post this question, i've changed the address)
Would you give me some advice to make it work..?
Thanks in advance.
NSData *pdfData = [[NSData alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"http://www.mydomain.com/mypdffile.pdf"]];
//Store the Data locally as PDF File
NSString *resourceDocPath = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:[[[[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath] stringByDeletingLastPathComponent] stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"<Application_Home>/Documents/"]];
NSString *filePath = [resourceDocPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"myPDF.pdf"];
[pdfData writeToFile:filePath atomically:YES];
//Now create Request for the file that was saved in your documents folder
NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filePath];
NSURLRequest *requestObj = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
[webView setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
[webView setDelegate:self];
[webView loadRequest:requestObj];
You are not building a correct NSURL object to reach a server. fileURLWithPath: is a method to build URL that points to files in the file system.
Use URLWithString: writing the complete url, that is for example "http://myserver.com/myfile.pdf"
I try to download a file from my server, this is the code, on my console I see the xml file, but I can't save it.
Where is the problem for you?
- (IBAction)grabURL:(id)sender{
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://www.endurodoc.net/photo/data.xml"];
ASIHTTPRequest *request = [ASIHTTPRequest requestWithURL:url];
[request startSynchronous];
NSError *error = [request error];
if (!error) {
NSString *response = [request responseString];
NSLog(#"%#",response);
}
else{
NSLog(#"Errore");
}
//[request setDownloadDestinationPath:#"/Users/kikko/Desktop/data.xml"];
// SAVED PDF PATH
// Get the Document directory
NSString *documentDirectory = [NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES) lastObject];
// Add your filename to the directory to create your saved pdf location
NSString *pdfLocation = [documentDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"data.xml"];
// TEMPORARY PDF PATH
// Get the Caches directory
NSString *cachesDirectory = [NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSCachesDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES) lastObject];
// Add your filename to the directory to create your temp pdf location
NSString *tempPdfLocation = [cachesDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"data.xml"];
// Tell ASIHTTPRequest where to save things:
[request setTemporaryFileDownloadPath:tempPdfLocation];
[request setDownloadDestinationPath:pdfLocation];
}
You need to put:
[request setTemporaryFileDownloadPath:tempPdfLocation];
[request setDownloadDestinationPath:pdfLocation];
before:
[request startSynchronous];
ASIHTTPRequest does the file saving when the request is made, so if you set those properties after the request has already happened then nothing will happen.
Currently using SSZipArchive method to download the zip file and unzip at Documents directory folder. I am downloading the zip file name from URL and currently unaware of the file name because it changes each time there are any updates. How can I retrieve the file name when I receive my data ?
- (void)viewDidLoad {
fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
directoryPath = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
filePath = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#/ZipFiles.zip", directoryPath];
NSURL *url=[NSURL URLWithString:#"http://www.abc.com/test/test.cfc?id=123"];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init] autorelease];
[request setURL:url];
[request setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
[request setValue:#"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
NSError *error;
NSURLResponse *response;
NSData *urlData=[NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&response error:&error];
[fileManager createFileAtPath:filePath contents:urlData attributes:nil];
[SSZipArchive unzipFileAtPath:filePath toDestination:directoryPath];
NSString *responseString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:urlData encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];
///***Answer to my own question for future needs****//
NSString *fileName = [response suggestedFilename];
}
NSURLResponse has a method - (NSString *)suggestedFilename which will attempt to get the file name in this order.
A filename specified using the content disposition header.
The last path component of the URL.
The host of the URL.
The content disposition header would be the best solution so make sure that the server sets it.
when I call
-(IBAction)goback:(id)sender
{
NSURL *xmlURL=[NSURL URLWithString:#"http://demo.komexa.com/sicherungsbereich.xml"];
NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:xmlURL cachePolicy:NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringCacheData timeoutInterval:2];
NSURLResponse *theResponse;
NSError *theError;
NSData *myRequestResult = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&theResponse error:&theError];
NSString *stringReply = (NSString *)[[NSString alloc] initWithData:myRequestResult encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSLog(#"reply from server: %#", stringReply);
}
with the Iphone , on the simulator it loads the String everytime really from the internet.But on the devices, it caches the String, so even if the content of http://demo.komexa.com/sicherungsbereich.xml changes (you can do that by calling http://demo.komexa.com) the String does not automatically reload new data.
Have you got an Idea?
I have uploaded the Code here,because of formatting problems:
http://demo.komexa.com/problem.txt
just generate a random number and pass with your url , you get required result
e.g:
int randomNumber1 = 1 + arc4random()% 9;
NSString *rstr = [NSString stringWithFormat: #"%d",randomNumber1];
NSString *address = #"http://www.socialfactory.net/client-app/photovote/get_data.php";
NSString * nstr=[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#?t=%#",address,rstr];
//NSURLRequest *theRequest=nil;
NSURLRequest * theRequest = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:nstr]];
NSURLResponse *resp = nil;
NSError *err = nil;
Maybe your Simulator and iPhone have different proxie settings. check this or try with the NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringLocalAndRemoteCacheData policy which also ignores intermediate cachings. See the docs here.
