File name “@” character is replaced with “%40” in uploading file to AWS S3 in Android

I am developing an Android application. In my application, I am uploading file to AWS S3 bucket. I can upload the file successfully now to the s3 bucket using AWS Android SDK. But the problem is the "@" character in the filename is replaced with "%40" on the s3 Bucket.



This is my code for uploading file to S3



   public void s3credentialsProvider()
{
CognitoCachingCredentialsProvider cognitoCachingCredentialsProvider = new CognitoCachingCredentialsProvider(
this.context,
AwsUtility.COGNITO_POOL_ID,
AwsUtility.BUCKET_REGION
);
createAmazonS3Client(cognitoCachingCredentialsProvider );
}


public void createAmazonS3Client(CognitoCachingCredentialsProvider
credentialsProvider){

if(s3Client==null)
{
// Create an S3 client
s3Client = new AmazonS3Client(credentialsProvider);

// Set the region of your S3 bucket
s3Client.setRegion(Region.getRegion(AwsUtility.BUCKET_REGION));
}
}

public void setTransferUtility(){

transferUtility = new TransferUtility(s3Client, context);
}

public CachedFile uploadFileTos3(CachedFile cachedFile)
{

File file = new File(Utilities.getRealPathFromUri(context, Uri.parse(String.valueOf(cachedFile.getFilePath()))));
String fileHash = Utilities.getFileMD5Hash(file);
cachedFile.setFileHash(fileHash);

String extension = file.getAbsolutePath().substring(file.getAbsolutePath().lastIndexOf("."));
String fileId = cachedFile.getEventCode() + "/" + cachedFile.getEmail().replace("%40","@") + "/" + cachedFile.getFileHash() + extension;
try{
//fileId = URLEncoder.encode(fileId, "utf-8");
TransferObserver transferObserver = transferUtility.upload(AwsUtility.BUCKET_NAME, fileId, file);
transferObserverListener(transferObserver);
}
catch(Exception e)
{

}
cachedFile.setFileId(fileId);

return cachedFile;

}

public void transferObserverListener(TransferObserver transferObserver){

transferObserver.setTransferListener(new TransferListener(){

@Override
public void onStateChanged(int id, TransferState state) {
Log.i("SYNC_STATE", "State Change" + state);
}

@Override
public void onProgressChanged(int id, long bytesCurrent, long bytesTotal) {
int percentage = (int) (bytesCurrent/bytesTotal * 100);
Log.i("SYNC_PROGRESS", "Progress in %" + percentage);
}

@Override
public void onError(int id, Exception ex) {
Log.e("error","error");
}

});
}


I call the methods in this sequence:



s3credentialsProvide
setTransferUtility
uploadFileTos3


It is uploading to S3. But the problem is with the filename on S3:



TransferObserver transferObserver = transferUtility.upload(AwsUtility.BUCKET_NAME, fileId, file);


If I passed this value, "myemail@gmail.com/img-1.jpg" for the fileId, the file on the bucket became "myemail%40gmail.com/img-1.jpg". I do not want the @ character to be replaced. How can I solve the issue?

  • I used UrlEncoder.encode("email") to my email address. It is still not working as expected.

  • What does "the file on the bucket" mean? As the SO answer I pointed to mentions, download URLs have to be URL-encoded, and @ is a reserved character that needs to URL-encoded.

  • But when we upload using PHP and other languages, the @ is not replaced. It is working. Is there a way to do the same in android? Because there are some existing systems using that format too. That is why.
