nodejs + multer + angularjs for uploading without redirecting

Question

I am using Nodejs + Multer +angularjs for uploading files on the server.

i have a simple HTML file:

Answer 1

Angularjs directive:

angular.module('users').directive('fileModel', ['$parse', function ($parse) {
return {
    restrict: 'A',
    link: function(scope, element, attrs) {
        var model = $parse(attrs.fileModel);
        var modelSetter = model.assign;

        element.bind('change', function(){
            scope.$apply(function(){
                modelSetter(scope, element[0].files[0]);
            });
        });
    }
};
}]);

Angular html file:

<input type="file" file-model="myFile"/><br><br>
<button ng-click="uploadFile()">Upload</button>

Angularjs Controller:

$scope.uploadFile = function(){

        var file = $scope.myFile;
        var uploadUrl = "/multer";
        var fd = new FormData();
        fd.append('file', file);

        $http.post(uploadUrl,fd, {
            transformRequest: angular.identity,
            headers: {'Content-Type': undefined}
        })
        .success(function(){
          console.log("success!!");
        })
        .error(function(){
          console.log("error!!");
        });
    };

Nodejs server route file:

var multer  = require('multer');
var storage = multer.diskStorage({
    destination: function (req, file, cb) {
        cb(null, './uploads/')
    },
    filename: function (req, file, cb) {
        cb(null, file.originalname+ '-' + Date.now()+'.jpg')
    }
});
var upload = multer({ storage: storage });

app.post('/multer', upload.single('file'));

Enjoy!
