Are there any multipart/form-data parser in C# - (NO ASP)

I am just trying to write a multipart parser but things getting complicated and want to ask if anyone knows of a ready pars开发者_如何学运维er in C#!

Just to make clear, I am writing my own "tiny" http server and need to pars multipart form-data too!

Thanks in advance, Gohlool

I open-sourced a C# Http form parser here.

This is slightly more flexible than the other one mentioned which is on CodePlex, since you can use it for both Multipart and non-Multipart form-data, and also it gives you other form parameters formatted in a Dictionary object.

This can be used as follows:

non-multipart

public void Login(Stream stream)
{
    string username = null;
    string password = null;

    HttpContentParser parser = new HttpContentParser(stream);
    if (parser.Success)
    {
        username = HttpUtility.UrlDecode(parser.Parameters["username"]);
        password = HttpUtility.UrlDecode(parser.Parameters["password"]);
    }
}

multipart

public void Upload(Stream stream)
{
    HttpMultipartParser parser = new HttpMultipartParser(stream, "image");

    if (parser.Success)
    {
        string user = HttpUtility.UrlDecode(parser.Parameters["user"]);
        string title = HttpUtility.UrlDecode(parser.Parameters["title"]);

        // Save the file somewhere
        File.WriteAllBytes(FILE_PATH + title + FILE_EXT, parser.FileContents);
    }
}

I've had some issues with parser that are based on string parsing particularly with large files I found it would run out of memory and fail to parse binary data.

To cope with these issues I've open sourced my own attempt at a C# multipart/form-data parser here

See my answer here for more information.

Check out the new MultipartStreamProvider and its subclasses (i.e. MultipartFormDataStreamProvider). You can create your own implementation too if none of the built in implementations are suitable for you use case.

With Core now you have access to a IFormCollection by using HttpContext.Request.Form.

Example saving an image:

        Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.IFormCollection form;
        form = ControllerContext.HttpContext.Request.Form; 

        using (var fileStream = System.IO.File.Create(strFile))
        {
            form.Files[0].OpenReadStream().Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin);
            form.Files[0].OpenReadStream().CopyTo(fileStream);
        }

I had a similar problem that i recently solved thanks to Anthony over at http://antscode.blogspot.com/ for the multipart parser.
