ASP.Net MVC – Read File from HttpPostedFileBase without save

by

This can be done using httpPostedFileBase class returns the HttpInputStreamObject as per specified here

You should convert the stream into byte array and then you can read file content

Please refer following link

Hope this helps

UPDATE :

The stream that you get from your HTTP call is read-only sequential
(non-seekable) and the FileStream is read/write seekable. You will
need first to read the entire stream from the HTTP call into a byte
array, then create the FileStream from that array.

Taken from here

// Read bytes from http input stream
BinaryReader b = new BinaryReader(file.InputStream);
byte[] binData = b.ReadBytes(file.ContentLength);

string result = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(binData);
