I must admit I didn't check if everything is as you desired, but here are my 2 cents on uploading with progress indication.
public async Task UploadVideoFilesToBlobStorage(List<VideoUploadModel> videos, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
{
var blobTransferClient = new BlobTransferClient();
//register events
blobTransferClient.TransferProgressChanged += BlobTransferClient_TransferProgressChanged;
//files
_videoCount = _videoCountLeft = videos.Count;
foreach (var video in videos)
{
var blobUri = new Uri(video.SasLocator);
//create the sasCredentials
var sasCredentials = new StorageCredentials(blobUri.Query);
//get the URL without sasCredentials, so only path and filename.
var blobUriBaseFile = new Uri(blobUri.GetComponents(UriComponents.SchemeAndServer | UriComponents.Path,
UriFormat.UriEscaped));
//get the URL without filename (needed for BlobTransferClient (seems to me like a issue)
var blobUriBase = new Uri(blobUriBaseFile.AbsoluteUri.Replace("/"+video.Filename, ""));
var blobClient = new CloudBlobClient(blobUriBaseFile, sasCredentials);
//upload using stream, other overload of UploadBlob forces to put online filename of local filename
using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(video.FilePath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.ReadWrite))
{
await blobTransferClient.UploadBlob(blobUriBase, video.Filename, fs, null, cancellationToken, blobClient,
new NoRetry(), "video/x-msvideo");
}
_videoCountLeft -= 1;
}
blobTransferClient.TransferProgressChanged -= BlobTransferClient_TransferProgressChanged;
}
private void BlobTransferClient_TransferProgressChanged(object sender, BlobTransferProgressChangedEventArgs e)
{
Console.WriteLine("progress, seconds remaining:" + e.TimeRemaining.Seconds);
double bytesTransfered = e.BytesTransferred;
double bytesTotal = e.TotalBytesToTransfer;
double thisProcent = bytesTransfered / bytesTotal;
double procent = thisProcent;
//devide by video amount
int videosUploaded = _videoCount - _videoCountLeft;
if (_videoCountLeft > 0)
{
procent = (thisProcent + videosUploaded) / _videoCount;
}
procent = procent * 100;//to real %
UploadProgressChangedEvent?.Invoke((int)procent, videosUploaded, _videoCount);
}
Actually Microsoft.WindowsAzure.MediaServices.Client.BlobTransferClient
should be able to do concurrent uploads but there is no Method for uploading multiple yet it has properties for NumberOfConcurrentTransfers
and ParallelTransferThreadCount
, not sure how to use this.
There is a bug in this BlobTransferClient
, when uploading using the localFile
parameter, it will use the filename of that file, while I gave permissions on a specific file name in the SaSLocator.
This example shows how to upload from a client (not on server), so we don't need any CloudMediaContext
which is usually the case. Everything about SasLocators can be found here.
