Node Busboy abort upload

Question

I\'m using busboy, writing my uploaded file to a buffer and performing some validation on it (width, height and filesize). I can\'t for the life of me figure out how to abo

Answer 1

Ok, so I had the same problem and I solved it with file.resume();

var fstream;
req.busboy.on('file', function (fieldname, file, filename, encoding, mimetype) {

    // Validate file mimetype
    if(mimetype != 'image/png'){
        file.resume();
        return res.json({
            success: false,
            message: 'Invalid file format'
        });
    }

    // Upload
    fstream = fs.createWriteStream(__dirname + '/tmp/' + timestamp + filename);
    file.pipe(fstream);
    fstream.on('close', function () {
        return res.json({
            success: true
        });
    });

});

req.pipe(req.busboy);
