Is there support to get progress during a large file upload?

[paolorotolo]

I'm using this method to upload some files on Blob (some files are large and take several minutes to upload).

    private void updateFilesOnBlob(){
        try {
            String timestamp = Tools.generateTimeStamp();

            // Retrieve storage account from connection-string.
            CloudStorageAccount storageAccount = CloudStorageAccount.parse(storageConnectionString);

            // Create the blob client.
            CloudBlobClient blobClient = storageAccount.createCloudBlobClient();

            // Retrieve reference to a previously created container.
            CloudBlobContainer container = blobClient.getContainerReference(CONTAINER_NAME);

            // Upload each file on Blob
            for (int i = 0; i< pathsArrayList.size(); i++) {
                // Define the path to a local file.
                final String filePath = pathsArrayList.get(i);
                CloudBlockBlob blob = container.getBlockBlobReference(timestamp + "/" + filenameFromPath(pathsArrayList.get(i)));
                File source = new File(filePath);
                blob.upload(new FileInputStream(source), source.length());
            }
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            // Output the stack trace.
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

As you can see, I use blob.upload() to start uploading the file. Is there any way to get the progress percentage and update the UI during the upload?

Hello @paolorotolo ,

We do not currently have support for getting the progress as a percentage and can take this into consideration as a feature request.
However there is support in the operation context to setResponseReceivedEventHandler() to notify you every time a put block call is made.

Do we have any further news here? Are we looking this to be implemented in near future?

This would be helpful to have. I'm trying to wrap my brain around someone building an uploader where progress wasn't the first feature that was implemented LOL
