Simple express file upload middleware that wraps around connect-busboy.
npm install express-fileupload
Add app.use(fileUpload()) AFTER app.use(bodyParser.json) and any other bodyParser middlewares! This limitation will be explored and resolved in an upcoming release.
Pass in Busboy options directly to express-fileupload (using Busboy v0.2.13). Check out the Busboy documentation here: https://github.com/mscdex/busboy#api
app.use(fileUpload({
limits: { fileSize: 50 * 1024 * 1024 },
}));var express = require('express');
var fileUpload = require('express-fileupload');
var app = express();
// default options
app.use(fileUpload());
app.post('/upload', function(req, res) {
var sampleFile;
if (!req.files) {
res.send('No files were uploaded.');
return;
}
sampleFile = req.files.sampleFile;
sampleFile.mv('/somewhere/on/your/server/filename.jpg', function(err) {
if (err) {
res.status(500).send(err);
}
else {
res.send('File uploaded!');
}
});
