Description
This appears to be an issue in version 108.0.3 with .Net 7.
In AddPostParameters when Content is of type MultiPartFormDataContent it attempts to add a new StringContent(), but the postParameter.ContentType is null or empty. Had to revert back to version 106.15.0 to get it working as a quick fix. I think, but haven't confirmed that 108.0.3 was not an issue with .net 6. It's possible I may be missing something, but the only change to our production code was an update of .net and RestSharp.
Based on a simple test it seems to be erroring out around line 158 of RestRequest.cs in AddPostParameters on newStringContent() which is:
void AddPostParameters(ParametersCollection? postParameters) {
if (postParameters.IsEmpty()) return;
if (Content is MultipartFormDataContent mpContent) {
// we got the multipart form already instantiated, just add parameters to it
foreach (var postParameter in postParameters!) {
var parameterName = postParameter.Name!;
mpContent.Add(
new StringContent(postParameter.Value!.ToString()!, _client.Options.Encoding, postParameter.ContentType),
_request.MultipartFormQuoteParameters ? $"\"{parameterName}\"" : parameterName
);
}
}
else { ....
The parameter types in my case were GetOrPostParameter and UrlSegmentParameter, both of which do not set the ContentType, which appear to not be optional for new StringContent() (ContentType can now only be set in the constructor) There are no issues when Content is not MultipartFormDataContent.
Sample test code:
[Test]
public void RestSharp_Attachment_Test()
{
RestClient client = new("https://api.mailgun.net/v2")
{
Authenticator = new RestSharp.Authenticators.HttpBasicAuthenticator("api", "xyz")
};
RestRequest request = new();
request.AddParameter("domain", "mydomain.com", ParameterType.UrlSegment);
request.Resource = "{domain}/messages";
request.AddParameter("to", "me@test.com");
request.AddParameter("subject", "Test Email");
request.AddParameter("text", "Body");
byte[] data = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("Test text file");
request.AddFile("textFile.txt", data, "text/plain");
request.Method = Method.Post;
RestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
}
