Description

use open api spec 3 to define api to upload multiple files, but openapi generator
generate incorrect, following openapi spec

https://swagger.io/specification/#mediaTypeObject
section: "To upload multiple files, a multipart media type MUST be used:"

default ResponseEntity<Document> createDocument(@ApiParam(value = "file detail") @Valid @RequestPart("file") MultipartFile file,@ApiParam(value = "") @RequestParam(value="metadata", required=false)  Object metadata)

should be array: MultipartFile[] file

default ResponseEntity<Document> createDocument(@ApiParam(value = "file detail") @Valid @RequestPart("file") MultipartFile[] file,@ApiParam(value = "") @RequestParam(value="metadata", required=false)  Object metadata)

Hi there,

I managed to generate MultipartFile[] files by using:

content:
multipart/form-data:
schema:
type: object
properties:
files[]:
type: array
items:
type: string
format: binary

Hello,

I have the same problem, impossible to generate a MultipartFile[] in Spring Boot with openapi-generator 4.2.2

Anyone knows how to do in Open API v3 ?

Hello,

I have the same problem. Java client not work for me.

I used the previously defined file

    public ResponseEntity<Void> createDocumentWithHttpInfo(List<File> file, Object metadata) throws RestClientException {
        Object postBody = null;
        
        String path = apiClient.expandPath("/api/v1/documents", Collections.<String, Object>emptyMap());

        final MultiValueMap<String, String> queryParams = new LinkedMultiValueMap<String, String>();
        final HttpHeaders headerParams = new HttpHeaders();
        final MultiValueMap<String, String> cookieParams = new LinkedMultiValueMap<String, String>();
        final MultiValueMap formParams = new LinkedMultiValueMap();

        if (file != null)
             //Not compile. FileSystemResource constructor wait a File, not a List<File>
            formParams.put("file", new FileSystemResource(file));
        if (metadata != null)
            formParams.add("metadata", metadata);

        final String[] accepts = { };
        final List<MediaType> accept = apiClient.selectHeaderAccept(accepts);
        final String[] contentTypes = { 
            "multipart/form-data"
        };
        final MediaType contentType = apiClient.selectHeaderContentType(contentTypes);

        String[] authNames = new String[] {  };

        ParameterizedTypeReference<Void> returnType = new ParameterizedTypeReference<Void>() {};
        return apiClient.invokeAPI(path, HttpMethod.POST, queryParams, postBody, headerParams, cookieParams, formParams, accept, contentType, authNames, returnType);
    }

How can I solve the same problem with multiple files upload for typescript-axios generator?
I tried @openapitools/openapi-generator-cli@cli-5.0.0-beta on this scheme:

...
      requestBody:
        required: true
        content:
          multipart/form-data:
            schema:
              required:
                - files
              properties:
                files:
                  type: array
                  items: { type: string, format: binary }
              type: object
...

It don't take into account the array of files and generates this code:

     const localVarFormParams = new FormData();

      if (files) {
        localVarFormParams.append('files', files.join(COLLECTION_FORMATS.csv));
      }

It would be great if it produce something like:

     const localVarFormParams = new FormData();

      if (files) {
        files.forEach((file) => {
          localVarFormParams.append('files[]', file)
        });
      }

Or maybe I'm doing something wrong?

This issue isn't yet solved @wing328 it's still not working for the Spring generator.

          multipart/form-data:
            schema:
              type: object
              properties:
                files:
                  type: array
                  items:
                    type: string
                    format: binary

@tobiashochguertel In my case this problem disappeared when I removed delegatePattern option.
