multer - req.file always undefined

问题:

I've looked at a lot of answer for this same question, but I haven't found a working solution yet. I am trying to make a web app that you can upload files to using express and multer, and I am having a problem that no files are being uploaded and req.file is always undefined.

My code below

'use strict';  var express = require('express'); var path    = require('path'); var multer  = require('multer') var upload  = multer({ dest: 'uploads/' })  var app = express(); require('dotenv').load();  app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'main')));  app.post('/upload', upload.single('upl'), function (req, res, next) {   // req.file is the `avatar` file   // req.body will hold the text fields, if there were any   console.log(req.file);   res.status(204).end(); })  var port = process.env.PORT || 8080; app.listen(port,  function () {     console.log('Node.js listening on port ' + port + '...'); }); 

The form

    <form class="uploadForm" action="/upload" method="post" enctype="multipart/formdata">         <label class="control-label">Select File</label>         <input name="upl" id="input-1" type="file" class="file">         <input type="submit" value="submit" />     </form> 

Help very much appreciated, this is driving me crazy.

回答1:

Your enctype is slightly incorrect, it should be multipart/form-data instead of multipart/formdata.

回答2:

In case of postman, try following:

1. Close the postman tab for the API
2. Open a new tab again
3. Rebuild the API request and then send.

This may fix the problem. Every time you restart the server you need to do above steps for calling the API again. The reason being multer sends back some cookies called connect.sid to the client which it may require in further communication. Using old cookies will not upload the file.

//JS file on node side  var express = require('express'); var fileUpload = require('express-fileupload'); var fs = require("fs"); var app = express(); console.log('étape 0'); app.use(express.static('mesStatic')); app.use(fileUpload()); console.log('étape 1'); app.get('/indexFileUpload.htm', function (req, res) {    res.sendFile( __dirname + "/" + "indexFileUpload.htm" ); }) console.log('étape 2'); app.post('/file_upload', function (req, res) {     console.log('étape 3');    console.log('req.files:' , req.files);    if (!req.files) {        res.send('No files to upload.');        return;    }     console.log('req.files.file.data:' , req.files.file.data);    var bufDataFile = new Buffer(req.files.file.data, "utf-8");    console.log('étape 3.1');    console.log('__dirname : ' + __dirname);    fs.writeFile(__dirname + '/file_upload/output.txt', bufDataFile,  function(err) {       if (err) {          return console.error(err);       }       else {          console.log("Data written successfully !");       }             console.log('étape 4');       res.end('Fin OK !!!');      }) }) var server = app.listen(8081, function () {    var host = server.address().address    var port = server.address().port     console.log("Example app listening at http://%s:%s", host, port); })

HTML File,

<form class="uploadForm" action="/upload" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">     <label class="control-label">Select File</label>     <input name="upl" id="input-1" type="file" class="file">     <input type="submit" value="submit" /> </form> 

app.js

var express=require("express"); var multer=require("multer"); var app=express(); var upload=multer({dest:"uploads/"}); app.post("/upload",upload.single("upl"),function(req,res){ console.log("Uploaded Successfull with filename : "+req.upl.filename); });

Yes, your enctype is wrong and that is the only problem. Make sure that you correct your enctype otherwise you are likely to get undefined in req.file or req.files.
