Add Attachment to Confluence page

[Michel Pittelkow]

Hi there,

I am currently trying to automatically add file attachments to a confluence page using script runner.

As a first test I used the "create page in confluence" example and tried to extend this with the confluence rest api description. But to no success.

I tried to utilize org.apache.http.entity.mime.MultipartEntityBuilder, but now I get a RuntimeException that no body writer was found for this class.

Perhaps this is not the right approach or am I missing something?

A code snippet:

def pathName = "C:\\reports\\testreport.pdf"
File fileUpload = new File(pathName)
assert fileUpload
MultipartEntityBuilder entityBuilder = MultipartEntityBuilder.create()
assert entityBuilder
entityBuilder.addPart("file", new FileBody(fileUpload))
// Child Attachment Example test
authenticatedRequestFactory
    .createRequest(Request.MethodType.POST, "rest/api/content/" + masterPageId + "/child/attachment")
    //.addHeader("Content-Type", "application/json")
    //.setRequestBody(new JsonBuilder(params).toString())
	.setEntity(entityBuilder.build())
    .execute(new ResponseHandler<Response>() {
        @Override
        void handle(Response response) throws ResponseException {
            if(response.statusCode != HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
                throw new Exception(response.getResponseBodyAsString())
            }
        }
})

Hopefully somebody already did that in the past?

Cheers,

Michel

Well,

I found it out myself.

Instead of usign the apache MultipartEntityBuilder I used the Multipart approach of the Shared Access Layer...

Working code:

def pathName = "C:\\reports\\testreport.pdf"
File fileUpload = new File(pathName)
assert fileUpload
def part = new RequestFilePart(fileUpload, "file")
assert part
def partList = new ArrayList<RequestFilePart>()
partList.add(part)
assert partList
assert partList.size() == 1
// Child Attachment Example test
authenticatedRequestFactory
    .createRequest(Request.MethodType.POST, "rest/api/content/" + masterPageId + "/child/attachment")
    .addHeader("X-Atlassian-Token", "nocheck")
    //.setRequestBody(new JsonBuilder(params).toString())
	//.setEntity(entityBuilder.build())
	.setFiles(partList)
    .execute(new ResponseHandler<Response>() {
        @Override
        void handle(Response response) throws ResponseException {
            if(response.statusCode != HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
                throw new Exception(response.getResponseBodyAsString())
            }
        }
})

Cheers,

Michel
