VistasHow to configure API endpoint to receive file from ember-uploader component
I'm trying to figure out how to use ember-uploader, I have the following component (like the one in the README)
export default EmberUploader.FileField.extend({
filesDidChange: function(files) {
const uploader = EmberUploader.Uploader.create({
url: (ENV.APP.API_HOST || '') + '/api/v1/images/',
});
console.log(uploader);
if (!Ember.isEmpty(files)) {
var photo = files[0];
console.log(photo);
uploader.upload(photo)
.then(data => {
// Handle success
console.log("Success uploading file");
console.log(data);
}, error => {
// Handle failure
console.log("ERROR uploading file");
console.log(error);
});
}
}
});
The express API endpoint is listening for a POST request.
var saveImage = (req, res, next) => {
let body = req.body;
res.json({
data: body
});
};
But the body is empty after the request is done. I really don't know how to implement the API endpoint in order to get the file, I tried to see the req object and it doesn't contains the file.
Debugging it, After select a file using the component I get the following info in the console.
Seems that the API endpoint works because I get the following output:
POST /api/v1/images/ 200 27.284 ms - 11
But I can't get the file.

SOLUTION
In Express 4, req.files is no longer available on the req object by default. To access uploaded files on the req.files object, use a multipart-handling middleware like busboy, multer, formidable, multiparty, connect-multiparty, or pez.
Following this blog, the code below was added to the API and the ember-uploader code posted in the question worked as expected.
import formidable from 'formidable';
var saveImage = (req, res, next) => {
var form = new formidable.IncomingForm();
form.parse(req);
form.on('fileBegin', function (name, file){
file.path = __dirname + '/tmp/' + file.name;
});
form.on('file', function (name, file){
res.json({
data: file.name
});
});
};
