React native upload image as binary

I've seen several examples of uploading a file using react-native-fetch-blob to upload assets as Form data, unfortunately the server that I need to upload to doesn't support multipart but a binary stream of the file. I'm using react native (dettached) and created a native module (iOS) that returns the local Identifier and the local path of the file to upload, for example:

4697EAE5-50A3-4462-AE5A-71CC5D08C2D7/L0/001: file:///var/mobile/Media/DCIM/100APPLE/IMG_0038.JPG

however, when I specify the path to the library to upload, it uploads an empty stream and the server stores a zero-bytes size file, I'm uploading a snippet of what I'm doing right now:

export const uploadFile = (
  action,
  url,
  data,
  showLoading = true,
  showError = true
) => (dispatch, getStore) => { // in the future it's going to be connected to redux
  const uploadPath = RNFetchBlob.wrap(data.replace("file://", ""));
  // uploadPath = "RNFetchBlob-file:///var/mobile/Media/DCIM/100APPLE/IMG_0033.JPG"

  console.log("path to upload", uploadPath);
  return RNFetchBlob.fetch(
    "PUT",
    url,
    {
      // appends the Bearer token of the server
      ...getConfigFromStore(getStore()).headers
      "Content-Type": "application/octet-stream"
    },
    uploadPath
  )
    .then(response => console.log("response ok", response))
    .catch(error => console.error("response error", error));
};

The response is a HTTP 204 (which is fine since the response doesn't contain a body)

An alternative is getting the base64 string data but it's not recommended due to memory limitations in the phone and I need to support videos upload in the future, any suggestions?
