How to cast event to return HttpEventType.Response when subscribe data?


I work on angular 8 I face issue I can't cast event to return HttpEventType.Response when subscribe data to get progress bar upload

component service

PostUpload(selectedoptionsId, file)
{
  const formData: FormData = new FormData();
  formData.append('file', file,file.name);
  formData.append('selectedoptions',selectedoptionsId.toString());
 return this.http.post('http://localhost:61265/api/DeliverySys/', formData,{responseType: 'blob'});
}

component type script

this._dataService.PostUpload(this.selectedoptions.toString(),this.fileToUpload)
     .subscribe((event:any) => {
      if (event.type === HttpEventType.Response) {
          console.log('Upload complete');
    }
    })

event.type always return "text/plain" on debugger and event is BLOB so How to cast it to return HttpEventType.Response

update original post

what I try as below :

this._dataService.PostUpload(this.selectedoptions.toString(),this.fileToUpload)

 .subscribe((event: HttpEvent<any>) => {

  switch (event.type) {

    case HttpEventType.Sent:

      console.log('Request has been made!');

      break;

    case HttpEventType.ResponseHeader:

      console.log('Response header has been received!');

      break;

    case HttpEventType.UploadProgress:

      this.progress = Math.round(event.loaded / event.total * 100);

      console.log(`Uploaded! ${this.progress}%`);

      break;

    case HttpEventType.Response:

      console.log('User successfully created!', event.body);

      this.message='User successfully created!';

      saveAs(event, this.fileToUpload.name + '.xlsx')

      setTimeout(() => {

        this.progress = 0;

      }, 1500);



  }

})



file not saved and this console give me

Solution

  • If I got the question right, you have to create your request like so:

      addUser(name: string, profileImage: File): Observable<any> {
        var formData: any = new FormData();
        formData.append("name", name);
        formData.append("avatar", profileImage);
    
            return this.http.post('http://localhost:61265/api/DeliverySys/',formData,{
              reportProgress: true,
              observe: 'events'//now when you will subscribe you will get the events, in his case he neded responseType: 'blob', because from the back end he was receiving the blob too.
            });
       }
        
    

    Then just the call the method like so:

    this.fileUploadService.addUser(
      this.form.value.name,
      this.form.value.avatar
    ).subscribe((event: HttpEvent<any>) => {
      switch (event.type) {
        case HttpEventType.Sent:
          console.log('Request has been made!');
          break;
        case HttpEventType.ResponseHeader:
          console.log('Response header has been received!');
          break;
        case HttpEventType.UploadProgress:
          this.progress = Math.round(event.loaded / event.total * 100);
          console.log(`Uploaded! ${this.progress}%`);
          break;
        case HttpEventType.Response:
          console.log('User successfully created!', event.body);
         //add whatever thing you have to do here. 
          setTimeout(() => {
            this.progress = 0;
          }, 1500);
    
      }
    })
