The closest I could get to read the file was seeing it in the body
defmodule Foo.Bar do
use Plug.Router
import Plug.Conn
require Logger
plug Plug.Logger, log: :debug
plug :match
plug :dispatch
plug(Plug.Parsers, parsers: [:urlencoded, {:multipart, length: 10_000_000}])
post "/foo/bar/import" do
Logger.error(inspect conn.params["file"])
Logger.error(inspect(Plug.Conn.read_body(conn), label: "body"))
end
end
And here is the output of Logger:

Unfortunately getting from here to actually read the file part of the body got me stuck, found no valid example, tried many things I found online that seem to be deprecated as no longer available in Plug 1.14, like get_upload/2, Plug.Upload.parse_multipart/2, get_multipart_params/2, Plug.Upload.get_params/1, Plug.Upload.get/2.
Tried to get_req_header and if it’s “multipart/form-data” do Plug.Multipart.parse or Plug.Parsers.MULTIPART.parse/5 that’s deprecated I guess or I failed to understand how to use, then trying with a recursive with Plug.Parsers.MULTIPART.init([]) and Plug.Parsers.MULTIPART.parse/5
I am definitely miss something here, anyone has a valid example E2E on how can I read the file in the Plug above by only using plug, where the files is clearly visible in the body that’s “multipart/form-data” (P.S. I can’t control the requester to change the content-type).
Thank you
