As I struggled with the sparse examples on the GitHub repo I spent some time making a simple example for uploading a file to ESPAsyncWebServer.

Files are uploaded through '/api/upload'.
I used curl to test this code with a command something like this:

Code: Select all

curl --user admin -F 'data=@LOCAL_FILENAME' 'ESP32_IP/api/upload'

The example:

Code: Select all

/****************************************************************************

       Upload a file to esp32 with authorization

       Use curl to upload a file:

       curl --user admin:admin -F 'data=@FILENAME' 'ESP32_IP/api/upload'
