AFNetworking upload task with POST parameters

Question

I'm wondering how to use AFNetworking to make a POST request with a file, a few parameters and progress report of the upload.

AFURLSessionManager's uploadTaskWithRequest:fromFile:progress:completionHandler works for POST upload with progress, but I cannot figure out how to add the POST parameters.

I've also looked into AFHTTPSessionManager's POST:parameters:constructingBodyWithBlock:success:failure:, but that doesn't appear to be able to report upload progress.

How do I get the best of both worlds?

Answer 1

Look at using a combination of uploadTaskWithStreamedRequest:progress:completionHandler: and multipartFormRequestWithMethod:URLString:parameters:constructingBodyWithBlock:.
