I have created a file from which I can successfully upload the image, But the name of the image that comes up ( undefiend.jpg ) in this project use express file upload middleware
*admin.js
var express = require("express");
const productHelpers = require("../helpers/product-helpers");
var router = express.Router();
var productHelper = require("../helpers/product-helpers");
/* GET users listing. */
router.get("/", function (req, res, next) {
productHelpers.getAllProducts().then((products) => {
console.log(products);
res.render("admin/view-products", { admin: true, products });
});
});
router.get("/add-product", function (req, res) {
res.render("admin/add-product");
});
router.post("/add-product", (req, res, next) => {
productHelpers.addProduct(req.body, (id) => {
let image = req.files.Image;
console.log(id);
image.mv("./public/product-images/" + id + ".jpg", (err) => {
if (!err) {
res.render("admin/add-product");
} else {
console.log(err);
}
});
});
});
module.exports = router;
product-helpers.js
Here i do callback using id
product-helpers.js` var db=require('../config/connection')
var collection=require('../config/collections')
module.exports={
addProduct:(product,callback)=>{
db.get().collection('product').insertOne(product).then((data)=>{
callback(data._id)
})
}
}
`
I think you should use data.insertedId,
module.exports = {
addProduct: (product, callback) => {
db.get().collection('product').insertOne(product).then((data) => {
callback(data.insertedId)
})
}
}
in the mongodb documentation https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/method/db.collection.insertOne/, it is showed that insertOne() returns
{
"acknowledged" : true,
"insertedId" : ObjectId("56fc40f9d735c28df206d078")
}
Insert a Document without Specifying an _id Field In the following example, the document passed to the insertOne() method does not contain the _id field:
try {
db.products.insertOne({ item: "card", qty: 15 });
} catch (e) { print(e); };
The operation returns the following document:
{
"acknowledged" : true,
"insertedId" : ObjectId("56fc40f9d735c28df206d078")
}
But anyway, you can use the name property from req.files.image: for example:
const image = req.files.image;
const imageName = image.name;
const imagePath = './public/product-images/' + imageName;
console.log(imagePath);
image.mv(imagePath, (error) => {
//something here
})
