How to make HTTP POST call with application/zip and multipart/form-data using plugin io.github.http-builder-ng.http-plugin in Groovy - gradle-plugin

Question

I am using the below code to make HTTP POST call to the server with the content type as application/zip and multipart/form-data using io.github.http-builder-ng.http-plugin.(One of the example shared here)
plugins {
id "io.github.http-builder-ng.http-plugin" version "0.1.1"
}
import groovyx.net.http.ApacheEncoders
import groovyx.net.http.*
import groovyx.net.http.HttpConfigs.BasicHttpConfig
import groovyx.net.http.OkHttpBuilder.OkHttpToServer
import static groovyx.net.http.MultipartContent.multipart
File msFile =new File("C:\\GradlePOC\\POC_1\\btest.zip");
OkHttpBuilder.configure {
request.uri = 'https://example.com'
request.auth.basic 'ABC', 'XXXXX'
request.encoder('application/zip'){ BasicHttpConfig config, OkHttpToServer req->
req.toServer(new FileInputStream(
msFile
))
}
}.post {
request.uri.path = '/application/applications/3547/binaries'
request.contentType = 'multipart/form-data'
request.body = multipart {
field 'name', 'data'
part 'filename', 'btest.zip', 'application/zip', msFile
}
request.encoder 'multipart/form-data', OkHttpBuilder.&multipart
}
But the above code is not working for me. Any help would be much appreciated.

Try with these changes:
plugins {
id "io.github.http-builder-ng.http-plugin" version "0.1.1"
}
import groovyx.net.http.HttpBuilder
import groovyx.net.http.MultipartContent
import groovyx.net.http.OkHttpEncoders
import groovyx.net.http.ChainedHttpConfig
import groovyx.net.http.ToServer
File msFile =new File("C:\\GradlePOC\\POC_1\\btest.zip");
OkHttpBuilder.configure {
request.uri = 'https://example.com'
request.auth.basic 'ABC', 'XXXXX'
request.encoder('application/zip'){ ChainedHttpConfig config, ToServer req->
req.toServer(new FileInputStream(msFile))
}
}.post {
request.uri.path = '/application/applications/3547/binaries'
request.contentType = 'multipart/form-data'
request.body = MultipartContent.multipart {
field 'name', 'data'
part 'filename', 'btest.zip', 'application/zip', msFile
}
request.encoder 'multipart/form-data', OkHttpEncoders.&multipart
}

Here is the only working way for me:
#Grapes([
#Grab('org.slf4j:slf4j-simple:1.7.25'),
#Grab('io.github.http-builder-ng:http-builder-ng-okhttp:1.0.4')
])
import groovyx.net.http.*
String BASE_URL = '[HOST_SERVER]'
String URI_PATH = '[UPLOAD_ENDPOINT]'
File msFile = new File('C:\\GradlePOC\\POC_1\\btest.zip')
// Post a file (okhttp)
OkHttpBuilder.configure {
request.uri = BASE_URL
request.auth.basic 'admin', 'admin'
}.post {
request.uri.path = URI_DOC_UPLOAD
request.contentType = 'multipart/form-data'
request.body = MultipartContent.multipart {
field 'name', 'data'
part 'filename', msFile.name, 'application/octet-stream', msFile
}
request.encoder 'multipart/form-data', OkHttpEncoders.&multipart
}
