Easily upload files in the background with automatic Android Notification Center progress indication.
- upload files to a server with HTTP
multipart/form-data
or binary requests - handle uploads in the background, even if the device is idle
- automatically retry failed uploads, with an exponential backoff
- possibility to automatically delete successfully uploaded files from the device
- show status in the Android Notification Center.
At the core of the library there is a Service
which handles multiple concurrent upload tasks in the background. It publishes broadcast intents to notify status. This way the logic is completely decoupled from the UI. Read further to learn how you can use it in your App.
