iOS Question iNMSSH - SFTP Upload files

[RaymondHung]

When using iNMSSH-SFTP Upload files, how do I know the file name and path? Thanks

 

[Erel]

Not sure that I understand the question.

Dim remote As String = "/remote.dat"
 ssh.UploadFile(File.DirAssets, "1.bil", remote)
 Wait For ssh_UploadCompleted (success As Boolean)
 Log("upload: " & success)
Log("Uploaded file is: " & remote)

Hi Erel
My code uses "InitCamera" to select image files, and then upload files via iNMSSH SFTP, but if you don't know the file name and path, you cannot upload it. If I have an error, please advise.

Sub Process_Globals
    'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
    'Public variables can be accessed from all modules.
    Public App As Application
    Public NavControl As NavigationController
    Private Page1 As Page
    Private cam As Camera
    Private sftp1 As NMSSH
End Sub

Private Sub Application_Start (Nav As NavigationController)
    'SetDebugAutoFlushLogs(True) 'Uncomment if program crashes before all logs are printed.
    NavControl = Nav
    Page1.Initialize("Page1")
    Page1.RootPanel.LoadLayout("main")
    NavControl.ShowPage(Page1)
    sftp1.Initialize("sftp1")
End Sub

Sub InitCamera
    cam.Initialize("cam", Page1)
End Sub

Sub btnOpenFile_Click
    InitCamera
    cam.SelectFromPhotoLibrary(Sender, cam.TYPE_IMAGE)   
End Sub

Sub Cam_Complete (Success As Boolean, Image As Bitmap, VideoPath As String)   
    If Success Then
        If Image.IsInitialized Then   
            'File name ?????
            'File path ?????
           sftp1.UploadFile(File path, File name, "/File name")       
           Wait For sftp1_UploadCompleted (success As Boolean)
        End If
    End If
End Sub

It was impossible to understand anything from the first post. We cannot guess what you are trying to do...

You will need to write the image to a temporary file with Bitmap.WriteToStream.

Is it possible to know the name and path of the Add File in ios?
I want to achieve the following android UI effect.

try this:

Sub Cam_Complete (Success As Boolean, Image As Bitmap, VideoPath As String)
    If Success Then
        If Image.IsInitialized Then
            Dim folder As String = File.DirDocuments
            Dim filename As String = "myFile.jpg"
            saveAndUploadFile(Image,folder,filename)
        End If
    End If
End Sub

Sub saveAndUploadFile(bmp As Bitmap,folder As String, fileName As String)
    'first we need to save the file
    Dim Out As OutputStream
    Out = File.OpenOutput(folder,fileName, False)
    bmp.WriteToStream(Out, 100, "JPEG")
    Out.Close
    
    'now we can upload it
    sftp1.UploadFile(folder, fileName, "/File name")
    Wait For sftp1_UploadCompleted (Success As Boolean)
    '...
End Sub

Actually a question is about Camera.SelectFromPhotoLibrary (how to retrieve a file path for selected photo).

As I understand, UIImagePickerController allows to do this - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiimagepickercontrollerimageurl?language=objc
Simply not implemented. Meanwhile saving small file (some MB) is enough fast action. So no need to expand iMedia library.
