How can I upload a file to rackspace using RESTSharp and .net 4.0? - .net-4.0

Question

Here is what i have so far and it's not working:
private void _send1(string file)
{
var client = new RestClient("https://identity.api.rackspacecloud.com/v2.0");
var request = new RestRequest("tokens", Method.POST);
request.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json;
string test = "{\"auth\":{\"RAX-KSKEY:apiKeyCredentials\"{\"username\":\"";
test += UserName;
test += "\",\"apiKey\":\"";
test += MyToken;
test += "\"}}}";
request.AddBody(serText);
request.AddParameter("application/json", test, ParameterType.RequestBody);
RestResponse response = (RestResponse)client.Execute(request);
// Content = "{\"badRequest\":{\"code\":400,\"message\":\"java.lang.String cannot be cast to org.json.simple.JSONObject\"}}"
}
note: UserName and apiKey are valid RackSpace credentials :-)
Thanks
In advance
Try 2: ( found this on the web ) and it gives me a token... now what do I do with it?
private void _send2(string file)
{
Dictionary<string, object> dictAuth = new Dictionary<string, object>();
dictAuth.Add("RAX-KSKEY:apiKeyCredentials", new { username = UserName, apiKey = MyToken });
var auth = new
{
auth = dictAuth
};
RestClient client = new RestClient("https://identity.api.rackspacecloud.com");
RestSharp.RestRequest r = new RestRequest("/v2.0/tokens", Method.POST);
r.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
r.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json;
r.AddBody(auth);
RestResponse response = (RestResponse)client.Execute(r);
// Content = "{\"access\":{\"token\":{\"id\":\"AACCvxjTOXA\",\"expires\":\"2016-04-09T21:12:10.316Z\",\"tenant\":{\"id\":\"572045\",\"name\...
}
moving just a bit further:
I have create a class that parses out the URL, tenantID and token from Step 2 above
This data is passed to the PostFile call:
private void PostFile(string url, string tenantID, string token, string file)
{
string fName = Path.GetFileName(file);
RestClient client = new RestClient(url);
string baseURL = string.Format("v1/{0}/Support/{1}", tenantID, fName);
RestRequest r = new RestRequest(baseURL, Method.POST);
r.AddHeader("Content-Type", "text/plain");
r.AddParameter("X-Auth-Token", token);
r.AddFile(fName, file);
RestResponse response = (RestResponse)client.Execute(r);
if( response.StatusCode == System.Net.HttpStatusCode.OK)
{
int x = 0;
}
}
Here is what finally worked:
bool bRetval = false;
string fName = Path.GetFileName(file);
RestClient client = new RestClient(url);
string baseURL = string.Format("/Support/{0}", fName);
RestRequest r = new RestRequest(baseURL, Method.PUT);
r.AddHeader("Content-Type", "text/plain");
r.AddHeader("X-Auth-Token", token);
r.AddFile(fName, file);
RestResponse response = (RestResponse)client.Execute(r);

Answer 1

See the above post for the supporting functions that lead up to this one
private bool PostFile(string url, string token, string file)
{
bool bRetval = false;
string fName = Path.GetFileName(file);
RestClient client = new RestClient(url);
string baseURL = string.Format("/Support/{0}", fName);
RestRequest r = new RestRequest(baseURL, Method.PUT);
r.AddHeader("Content-Type", "text/plain");
r.AddHeader("X-Auth-Token", token);
r.AddFile(fName, file);
RestResponse response = (RestResponse)client.Execute(r);
if ( response.StatusCode == System.Net.HttpStatusCode.Created)
{
bRetval = true;
}
return bRetval;
}
