Step 1:

Create an entry for the file in the cloud. The pre-signed url is where you can upload the actual file using the 'upload_file' method.

Returns: a json object with meta data for the file entry in the cloud

:param int case_Id: id of the case you want to upload a file to
:param string file_name: the name of the file
:param int size: the size of the file in bytes
:param int component_Id: optional parameter, id of the component that you want to upload a file for. Leave this parameter open if you want to upload a step file containging all components.

def get_file_upload_url(self, case_Id, file_name, size, component_Id=None) -> Dict:

    file_url = self.fileserver_url + "/cases/" + str(case_Id) + "/files"

    payload = json.dumps({"fileName": file_name,"fileSize": size, "caseComponentId": component_Id})


    response = requests.post(file_url, data=payload, headers=self.put_header)

    if(response.ok): 
        print("url acquired: \n", response.text, "\n")
        return response.json()
    else: 
        logger.error(f"failed to acquire url: {response.content}")
        raise Exception

Step 2:

Upload a file to the given url. The url has to be a pre-signed url.

:param string presigned_url: a pre signed url to where you want to upload your file
:param string file_path: path to the file you want to upload.

API call function:

def upload_file(self, presigned_url, file_path):

    with open(file_path, 'rb') as file:
        file_data = file.read()

    #response = requests.put(presigned_url, data=file_data, headers={'Content-Type': 'application/octet-stream'})
    response = requests.put(presigned_url, data=file_data, headers=self.url_post_header)


    if(response.ok): 
        print("file upload successful \n")
    else: 
        logger.error(f"file upload failed: {response.content}")
        raise Exception
