play framework file upload

Question

I'm trying to add file uploading handling in play framework app to existing form with text field.
According to documentation, I need to use

asMultipartFormData()

or

asRaw

method, however, it can not handle text input fields. Is it possible to use one controller for standart html form and file processing at the same time?

Answer 1

Yes, it is possible, just simply handle file and text input separately. For instance:

public Result myControllerMethod(){
  ...
  //handle input text here
  Form<MyModel> myForm = formFactory.form(MyModel.class);
  MyModel myModel = myForm.bindFromRequest().get();
  ...
  //handle file
  MultipartFormData<File> body = request().body().asMultipartFormData();
  ...
}
