Raw

Video is uploaded as an image(thumbnail) from IOS device. (._.)

Research

I don't know but seem that when get Video URI from IOS, it return a thumbnail not a video. It taken me a day to find out what happen, finally I can not send a absolute path to laravel to get video because I can not receive anything from absolute path.

My solution

After log hours I decided that I will push video to S3 from frontend (React Native) with aws-sdk. I got a pre-signed URL from backend then use that url to put video to S3 -> call api that upload success to notify backend save data into the database.

Note:

  • I get URI info FileSystem package to get thumbnail(IOS seem generate tn for us :~P )
  • URI which I put to S3 I use absolute path get from MediaLibrary.getAssetInfoAsync(id) library of expo.
  • id get from URI info by substring from 36 -> &.
  • Use XMLHttpRequest to run put file because when you use formdata, it will wrap data with content-type multipart/form-data. This one just use for IOS, Android I did not test yet.
