[jira] [Commented] (CB-51) API: FileTransfer - Support PUT Method

["Shazron Abdullah (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-51?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13533538#comment-13533538 ] 

Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-51:
------------------------------------

This is important also for uploads to Amazon S3, which requires the PUT verb. Not sure if this is as easy as creating a new FileUploadOptions setting, and changing the verb to PUT from POST in the native url connection.

> While the current FileTransfer provides upload capabilities similar to browsers (using HTTP POST and multipart), it would be helpful to support PUT as well. 
> HTTP allows to create server-side resource using the PUT method, and many RESTful webservices make use of this. Being the only way to upload binary file content from a device to a web server, FileTransfer should additionally support PUT as method. Usage might be indicated via FileUploadOptions.
