Cannot read property 'fileSize' of undefined (req.file) (multer)


CODE:

var upload = multer({dest:"./uploads"});

app.post("/", upload.single("file"), function (req, res, next) {
    res.send(req.file.fileSize+"bytes");                     
});

EJS FILE:

    <h1>Get the File Size of your Upload !</h1>

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="/" name="file">
    <input type="file" class="form-control">
    <button type = "submit" class = "btn btn-default">Submit</button>
</form>

QUESTION:

What have I done wrong ?


Solution

  • Add name = 'file' to input

    <h1>Get the File Size of your Upload !</h1>
    
    <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="/">
        <input type="file" class="form-control" name="file">
        <button type = "submit" class = "btn btn-default">Submit</button>
    </form>
