I tried to resize or compress an image before uploading to the google cloud storage. The upload works fine but the resizing does not seem to work.
Here is my code:
const uploadImage = async (file) => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
let { originalname, buffer } = file
sharp(buffer)
.resize(1800, 948)
.toFormat("jpeg")
.jpeg({ quality: 80 })
.toBuffer()
const blob = bucket.file(originalname.replace(/ /g, "_"))
const blobStream = blob.createWriteStream({
resumable: false
})
blobStream.on('finish', () => {
const publicUrl = format(
`https://storage.googleapis.com/${bucket.name}/${blob.name}`
)
resolve(publicUrl)
}).on('error', () => {
reject(`Unable to upload image, something went wrong`)
})
.end(buffer)
})
I ran into the same issue with a project I was working on. After lots of trial and error I found the following solution. It might not be the most elegant, but it worked for me.
In my upload route function I created a new thumbnail image object with the original file values and passed it as the file parameter to the uploadFile function for google cloud storage.
Inside my upload image route function:
const file = req.file;
const thumbnail = {
fieldname: file.fieldname,
originalname: `thumbnail_${file.originalname}`,
encoding: file.encoding,
mimetype: file.mimetype,
buffer: await sharp(file.buffer).resize({ width: 150 }).toBuffer()
}
const uploadThumbnail = await uploadFile(thumbnail);
My google cloud storage upload file function:
const uploadFile = async (file) => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
const gcsname = file.originalname;
const bucketFile = bucket.file(gcsname);
const stream = bucketFile.createWriteStream({
resumable: false,
metadata: {
contentType: file.mimetype
}
});
stream.on('error', (err) => {
reject(err);
});
stream.on('finish', (res) => {
resolve({
name: gcsname
});
});
stream.end(file.buffer);
});
I think the problem is with toFormat(). That function does not exist in the Docs. Can you try to remove it and check if it would work?
sharp(buffer)
.resize(1800, 948)
.jpeg({ quality: 80 })
.toBuffer()
