Move File in ExpressJS/NodeJS

Question

I\'m trying to move uploaded file from /tmp to home directory using NodeJS/ExpressJS:

fs.rename(\'/tmp/xxxxx\', \'/home/user/xxxxx\         


        

Answer 1

Updated ES6 solution ready to use with promises and async/await:

function moveFile(from, to) {
    const source = fs.createReadStream(from);
    const dest = fs.createWriteStream(to);

    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        source.on('end', resolve);
        source.on('error', reject);
        source.pipe(dest);
    });
}
