A Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is a string of characters used to identify a name or a resource on the Internet. A URI identifies a resource either by location, or a name, or both. A URI has two specializations known as URL and URN. A Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is a subset of the Uniform … Read more
If you are looking for a way to achieve it without using an external library, the following code will help you. public static Map<String, String> splitQuery(URL url) throws UnsupportedEncodingException { Map<String, String> query_pairs = new LinkedHashMap<String, String>(); String query = url.getQuery(); String[] pairs = query.split(“&”); for (String pair : pairs) { int idx = pair.indexOf(“=”); … Read more
Try this to validate HTTP URLs (uriName is the URI you want to test): Uri uriResult; bool result = Uri.TryCreate(uriName, UriKind.Absolute, out uriResult) && uriResult.Scheme == Uri.UriSchemeHttp; Or, if you want to accept both HTTP and HTTPS URLs as valid (per J0e3gan’s comment): Uri uriResult; bool result = Uri.TryCreate(uriName, UriKind.Absolute, out uriResult) && (uriResult.Scheme == … Read more
Below API 19 use this code to get File Path from URI: public String getRealPathFromURI(Context context, Uri contentUri) { Cursor cursor = null; try { String[] proj = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA }; cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(contentUri, proj, null, null, null); int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA); cursor.moveToFirst(); return cursor.getString(column_index); } finally { if (cursor != null) { cursor.close(); } … Read more
A relative URL without a scheme (http: or https:) is valid, per RFC 3986: “Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax”, Section 4.2. If a client chokes on it, then it’s the client’s fault because they’re not complying with the URI syntax specified in the RFC. Your example is valid and should work. I’ve used that … Read more
What you want is… new File(uri.getPath()); … and not… new File(uri.toString()); Notes For an android.net.Uri object which is named uri and created exactly as in the question, uri.toString() returns a String in the format “file:///mnt/sdcard/myPicture.jpg”, whereas uri.getPath() returns a String in the format “/mnt/sdcard/myPicture.jpg”. I understand that there are nuances to file storage in Android. … Read more
You should use hyphens in a crawlable web application URL. Why? Because the hyphen separates words (so that a search engine can index the individual words), and a hyphen is not a word character. Underscore is a word character, meaning it should be considered part of a word. Double-click this in Chrome: camelCase Double-click this … Read more
For me is better to have a schema that you can map directly to code (easy to automate), mainly because code is what is going to be at both ends. GET /orders <—> orders POST /orders <—> orders.push(data) GET /orders/1 <—> orders[1] PUT /orders/1 <—> orders[1] = data GET /orders/1/lines <—> orders[1].lines POST /orders/1/lines <—> … Read more
The values are sent in the request body, in the format that the content type specifies. Usually the content type is application/x-www-form-urlencoded, so the request body uses the same format as the query string: parameter=value&also=another When you use a file upload in the form, you use the multipart/form-data encoding instead, which has a different format. … Read more
