Hello everyone, for akka-http when handling a POST request, if I have my 
entity as a Multipart.FormData , 
and I POST some JSON and a binary file, how can I split the two when I 
parse the formData ?

This is what I come up with so far

 path("upload") { /* uploads a file to the database */
          post {
            entity(as[Multipart.FormData]) { (formData) =>


              val uploadedUrlsFuture = formData.parts.map(_.entity.dataBytes
).mapAsync(parallelism = 1)(part =>
                part
                  .map(_.toArray)
                  .runFold(ByteString())((totalBytes, bytes) => totalBytes 
++ bytes)
                  .map(_.toArray[Byte]).map(ResourceManager.saveFile(_)) /* 
TODO update this to a service */
              ).grouped(100).runWith(Sink.head)
              complete(OK)
            }
          }
        }



So if I have an Content-Length of 2 in a scenario where I post an JSON 
Object and a binary file,
is there a way to split that up and handle the two separately?

On top is this a good way to handle file upload to a backend or there are 
better ways (the file size should be at most 100mb)?
