I Want to Upload a File Using node.js

Question

I am using the code below to upload file-

Code:

app.post('/file_upload', function(req,res){ console.log('FIRST TEST: ' + JSON.stringify(req.files.theFile.name)); console.log('second TEST: ' +req.files.theFile.name); fs.readFile(req.files.theFile.path, function (err, data) { var newPath = "/tmp/"+req.files.theFile.name; var fileName = req.files.theFile fs.writeFile(newPath, data, function (err) { res.send("hi"); }); }); });

and i am getting Error:

TypeError: Cannot read property 'thumbnail' of undefined

Please guide me how to solve this.

do you want to upload a file, or receive a file? Please post the part of your code that contains the error. — bolav

According to your codes posted in your question, it is hard to figure out the root cause of error. Here is one sample to upload file which I used before, please try it.

app.post('/upload/create', function(req, res){ //save the upload file to folder tmp/ var tmppath = req.files.file.path; var targetpath = '/tmp/'+req.files.file.name; fs.rename(tmppath, targetpath, function(err){ if (err) throw err; fs.unlink(tmppath, function(){ if (err) throw err; console.log('upload file successfully...'); }); });
