I am setting up a new server and want to support advanced upload function. Firstly I need to validate file (filetype, filesize, maxcount), and finally upload it to some destination. I tried something with koa-multer but I cannot get multer validation errors.
multer.js
const multer = require('koa-multer')
const storage = multer.diskStorage({
destination: function (req, file, cb) {
cb(null, './public/uploads/')
},
filename: function (req, file, cb) {
var fileFormat = (file.originalname).split('.')
cb(null, file.fieldname + '_' + Date.now() + '.' + fileFormat[fileFormat.length - 1])
}
})
const fileFilter = (req, file, cb) => {
if (file.mimetype === 'image/jpeg' || file.mimetype === 'image/png') {
cb(null, true)
} else {
cb(new Error('This is not image file type'), false)
}
}
const upload = multer({
storage: storage,
limits: {
fileSize: 1024 * 1024 * 1,
files: 5
},
fileFilter: fileFilter
})
module.exports = upload
router.js
const Router = require('koa-router')
const multer = require('../middlewares/multer')
const auth = require('../middlewares/auth')
const controller = require('../controllers').userController
const schemas = require('../schemas/joi_schemas')
const validation = require('../middlewares/validation')
const router = new Router()
const BASE_URL = `/users`
router.post(BASE_URL, auth , validation(schemas.uPOST, 'body'), controller.
addUser)
router.put(`${BASE_URL}/:id`, auth , multer.single('logo')(ctx, (err) => {
if (err) {
ctx.body = {
success: false,
message: 'This is not image file'
}
}
}), controller.editUser)
router.delete(`${BASE_URL}/:id`, auth , controller.deleteUser)
module.exports = router.routes()
How can I solve upload problem this in best way for long term maintain of code?
The simplest approach for uploading files is the following (assume the form has a file upload field called avatar
:
const Koa = require('koa')
const mime = require('mime-types')
const Router = require('koa-router')
const koaBody = require('koa-body')({multipart: true, uploadDir: '.'})
const router = new Router()
router.post('/register', koaBody, async ctx => {
try {
const {path, name, type} = ctx.request.files.avatar
const fileExtension = mime.extension(type)
console.log(`path: ${path}`)
console.log(`filename: ${name}`)
console.log(`type: ${type}`)
console.log(`fileExtension: ${fileExtension}`)
await fs.copy(path, `public/avatars/${name}`)
ctx.redirect('/')
} catch(err) {
console.log(`error ${err.message}`)
await ctx.render('error', {message: err.message})
}
})
Notice that this example uses Async Functions which allows for clean code with a standard try-catch block to handle exceptions.
