Node Multer unexpected field
The <NAME>
you use in multer's upload.single(<NAME>)
function must be the same as the one you use in <input type="file" name="<NAME>" ...>
.
So you need to change
var type = upload.single('file')
to
var type = upload.single('recfile')
in you app.js
Hope this helps.
We have to make sure the type= file with name attribute should be same as the parameter name passed in
upload.single('attr')
var multer = require('multer');
var upload = multer({ dest: 'upload/'});
var fs = require('fs');
/** Permissible loading a single file,
the value of the attribute "name" in the form of "recfile". **/
var type = upload.single('recfile');
app.post('/upload', type, function (req,res) {
/** When using the "single"
data come in "req.file" regardless of the attribute "name". **/
var tmp_path = req.file.path;
/** The original name of the uploaded file
stored in the variable "originalname". **/
var target_path = 'uploads/' + req.file.originalname;
/** A better way to copy the uploaded file. **/
var src = fs.createReadStream(tmp_path);
var dest = fs.createWriteStream(target_path);
src.pipe(dest);
src.on('end', function() { res.render('complete'); });
src.on('error', function(err) { res.render('error'); });
});
