I am working on a project where I need to upload a files from a client (which is running a python script) to my Meteor app where the audio file will be processed and send a response back to the client. Once the client receives the response it will upload another file which starts the whole process over again.
I have been using github.com/foxdog-studios/pyddp to call various methods via DDP but can't figure out the best way to transfer a file from the client to Meteor. Any help on the proper way to upload files to Meteor would be much appreciated.
After doing some research and talking to several other Meteor developers it looks like DDP is not a good solution for files uploading. Apparently when CollectionsFS was first being developed they tried using DDP but switched over to a REST API do to speed and reliability issues. So in short their is not a good way to upload files via DDP.
To solve my problem I ended up creating a rest api and using CollectionsFS. I found this tutorial to be extremely helpful!
