How do I post data using okhttp library with content type x-www-form-urlencoded?

Question

I have used this method https://stackoverflow.com/a/31744565/5829906 but doesnt post data.

Here is my code

 OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();         RequestBody requestBody = new MultipartBuilder()                 .type(MultipartBuilder.FORM)                 .addFormDataPart("rating", "5").addFormDataPart("comment", "Awesome")                 .build();         Request request = new Request.Builder()                 .url(url)                 .post(requestBody)                 .build();         try {              Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();             String responseString = response.body().string();             response.body().close();         }catch (Exception e) {             e.printStackTrace();         } 

I tried DefaultHttpClient , that seems to be working, but it shows deprecated, so thought of trying something different..Cant figure out what is wrong in this

Answer 1

You select MediaType MultipartBuilder.FORM which is for uploading the file/image as multipart

public static final MediaType FORM = MediaType.parse("multipart/form-data"); 

try to send like this as

private final OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient(); public void run() throws Exception {      RequestBody formBody = new FormBody.Builder().add("search", "Jurassic Park").build();      Request request = new Request.Builder().url("https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php").post(formBody).build();      Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();     if (!response.isSuccessful())         throw new IOException("Unexpected code " + response);      System.out.println(response.body().string());  }
