The trait bound `Multipart: _::_serde::Deserialize<'_>` is not satisfied required by `next_element`

help

Hey

I have a form with a lot of data like name, address,... which I can successfully POST to Actix-web. But now I also want to mix a file into that form-data.

JQuery (Works fine):

    let file = $("#image")[0].files[0];
    let data = new FormData();
    data.append("name", $("#name").val());
    data.append("description", $("#description").val());;
    data.append("tel", $("#tel").val());
    data.append("email", $("#email").val());
    data.append("file", file);

$.ajax({
        type: 'POST',
        data: data,
        cache: false,
        contentType: false,
        processData: false,
        url: url,
        success: function(response) {
             console.log(response)
        }
    });

This is my struct and here is the problem:

#[derive(Deserialize)]
struct AddDistributorForm {
    name: String,
    description: String,
    tel: String,
    email: String,
    file: Multipart,
}

gives the following errors:

the trait bound `Multipart: _::_serde::Deserialize<'_>` is not satisfied required by `next_element`
the trait bound `Multipart: _::_serde::Deserialize<'_>` is not satisfied required by `next_value`

have already implemented
a file upload system in Rust
once, but then I was using the Multipart variable as a separated parameter and not mixed with other attributes in form-data.

How would I fix this?

Multipart is an Actix type and thus can't derive Deserialize. This can be fixed by using Multipart.
