What is the equivalent of httpclient code for the following CURL command

 curl -v -u username:password-XPUT -H "Content-type: text/plain" -d "E:/path_to_shapefile/shapefiles/" "http://172.16.17.86:9090/geoserver/rest/workspaces/IDIRA6/datastores/scenario2373/external.shp?configure=all"

The CURL command works fine. I have limited knowledge of httpclient, however, adapting similar code, following is my attempt:

 import org.apache.http.client.fluent.*;

 public class QuickStart 
 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception 
 Executor executor = Executor.newInstance()
 .auth("username", "password")
 .authPreemptive("172.16.17.86:9090");
 // Line below does not compile
 String response = executor.execute(Request.Put("E:/path_to_shapefile/shapefiles/" 
 "http://172.16.17.86:9090/geoserver/rest/workspaces/IDIRA6/datastores/scenario2373/external.shp?configure=all")) 
 .returnResponse()
 .toString();
 System.out.println(response);
 
 

This code above does not compile since I do not know how to encode two urls in the same request as in the CURL command. A fix to the above code or a new approach would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

import org.apache.http.client.fluent.*;
import org.apache.http.entity.ContentType;

public class QuickStart 
 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception 
 Executor executor = Executor.newInstance()
 .auth("admin", "geoserver")
 .authPreemptive("172.16.17.86:9090"); 
 String response = executor.execute(Request.Put("http://172.16.17.86:9090/geoserver/rest/workspaces/IDIRA6/datastores/scenario2373/external.shp?configure=all")
 .bodyString("E:\Tomcat\apache-tomcat-8.5.37\webapps\geoserver\data\data\IDIRA6\scenario2373\", ContentType.create("text/plain")))
 .returnResponse()
 .toString();
 System.out.println(response);
 

Thanks for the answer. I replaced bodyFile by bodyString and that worked.

 .returnResponse()
 .toString();
 System.out.println(response);
