Easy Way to upload image in Apigility

Upload Image in Apigility:

1.Firstly Create an api with specific name as i created with 'File2' in your RESTful API & create a service with name 'file'. Here my table name is also 'file' in DB.

2.Change the 'Hydrator Service Name'  - Zend\Stdlib\Hydrator\ClassMethods

3.Create a field same as your table field name & change this field 'Will this field be a file upload?'  - Yes

4.Now in your controller there are only two files:

FileCollection.php
FileEntity.php

5.Now create 4 more files there
FileMapper.php
FileResource.php
FileService.php
FileServiceFactory.php

6.Now go to module/File2/src/File2/module.php and add these functions there.

public function getServiceConfig()
    {
        return array(
            'factories' => array(
                'File2\V1\FileService' => 'File2\V1\Rest\File\FileServiceFactory',
                'File2\V1\Rest\File\FileResource' => function($sm) {
                    return new \File2\V1\Rest\File\FileResource($sm);
                },
            ),
            'invokables' => array(
                'File2\V1\File\FileEntity' => 'File2\V1\Rest\File\FileEntity',
            )
        );
    }

    public function getHydratorConfig()
    {
        return array(
            'factories' => array(
                'Zend\Stdlib\Hydrator\ClassMethods' => function($sm) {
                    return new \Zend\Stdlib\Hydrator\ClassMethods(false);
                },
            ),
        );
    }

7.Now go to your created file FileResource.php and add these here

<?php
namespace File2\V1\Rest\File;
use ZF\ApiProblem\ApiProblem;
use ZF\Rest\AbstractResourceListener;
use Zend\ServiceManager\ServiceManager;

class FileResource extends AbstractResourceListener
{
    protected $serviceManager;
    public function __construct(ServiceManager $serviceManager)
    {
        $this->serviceManager = $serviceManager;
    }
    public function create($data)
    {
        $uploaddir = '/home/ashishginotra/image/';
        $uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['image']['name']);
        if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {
            $data->image = $_FILES['image']['name'];
        } else {
         /*print something */
        }
        return $this->getFileService()->saveFile($data);
    }
    public function getFileService()
    {
        return $this->getServiceManager()->get('File2\V1\FileService');
    }
    public function getServiceManager()
    {
        return $this->serviceManager;
    }
    public function setServiceManager($serviceManager)
    {
        $this->serviceManager = $serviceManager;
        return $this;
    }
}
 ?>

Here 'image' is my field name  in  my table 'file'


8. Now go to your crated file FileService.php and add these here

<?php
namespace File2\V1\Rest\File;
use Zend\ServiceManager\ServiceManager;
use Zend\ServiceManager\ServiceManagerAwareInterface;

class FileService implements ServiceManagerAwareInterface
{
    protected $serviceManager;
    protected $mapper;
    public function saveFile($data)
    {
        $FileEntity = new FileEntity();
        $this->getMapper()->getHydrator()->hydrate((array)$data, $FileEntity);
        if (!is_null($FileEntity->getid())) {
            $this->getMapper()->update($FileEntity);
        } else {
            $this->getMapper()->insert($FileEntity);
        }
        return $FileEntity;
    }
    public function getServiceManager()
    {
        return $this->serviceManager;
    }
    public function setServiceManager(ServiceManager $serviceManager)
    {
        $this->serviceManager = $serviceManager;
        return $this;
    }
    public function getMapper()
    {
        return $this->mapper;
    }
    public function setMapper($mapper)
    {
        $this->mapper = $mapper;
        return $this;
    }
}

9. Now go to your created file FileMapper.php and add these here

<?php
namespace File2\V1\Rest\File;
use ZfcBase\Mapper\AbstractDbMapper;
use Zend\Paginator\Adapter\DbSelect;
class FileMapper extends AbstractDbMapper
{
    protected $tableName = 'file';
    public function insert($FileEntity)
    {
        $result = parent::insert($FileEntity);
        $FileEntity->setPostId($result->getGeneratedValue());
    }
    public function getTableName()
    {
        return $this->tableName;
    }
    public function setTableName($tableName)
    {
        $this->tableName = $tableName;
        return $this;
    }
}

10. Now go to your created file FileServiceFactory.php and add these here

<?php
namespace File2\V1\Rest\File;
use Zend\ServiceManager\FactoryInterface;
use Zend\ServiceManager\ServiceLocatorInterface;
class FileServiceFactory implements FactoryInterface
{
    public function createService(ServiceLocatorInterface $serviceManager)
    {
        $mapper = new FileMapper;
        $mapper->setDbAdapter($serviceManager->get('Zend\Db\Adapter\Adapter'));
        $mapper->setEntityPrototype($serviceManager->get('File2\V1\File\FileEntity'));
        $mapper->getHydrator()->setUnderscoreSeparatedKeys(false);
        $service = new FileService();
        $service->setMapper($mapper);
        return $service;
    }
}

11. Now go to FileEntity.php and change it as :
<?php
namespace File2\V1\Rest\File;
class FileEntity
{
    protected $id;
    protected $image;
    public function getid()
    {
        return $this->id;
    }
    public function setid($id)
    {
        $this->id = $id;
        return $this;
    }
    public function getimage()
    {
        return $this->image;
    }
    public function setimage($image)
    {
        $this->image = $image;
        return $this;
    }
}

12. Now go to 'Postman' which is your REST client application & set header Mime-type -  mulipart/form-data , select form-data Type 'file' and upload your image. You can do it also using json format and using 64 base encode format instead of file .
